H., Aug. 21. Frank C, | Almy, who murdered the young woman, Christie Warden, some time ago, was | esterday discovered in Mr. Warden's rn. EB Charles F. Stewart, a student at the state college, lo- cated Almy in the hay by probing with a long han. dle of a shovel When he punched the hiden man a bullet was fired up through the hay on which hq stood. The concealed man continued fir | ving, at the same time digging hime self out of the hay, and fired at least FRANK C. ALMY. fifteen shots at the searchers, driving them from the barn. Azro Turner, of Norwich, Vt., was slightly wounded by one of the | shots. Almy then wanted a conference, and Jonn Fuller and ex-Sheriff Bridgman went up in the hay loft. The fugtive agreed to surrender if guaranteed a fair trial. but when the pledge was given he refused to come out. Then officers at- tacked the barn with Winchester's, Almy returning the fire from his revol- ver. Finally, by a flank movement, he was overpowered and diswrmed. It needed the combined efforts of a body of armed officers to proteet him from the fury of the mob. In the fusiflade the miscreant was shot twice, and his leg is broken, The murderer acknowledged the kill ing, bat at his prelinnnary hearing this morning pleaded not guilty. He has been concealed in the barn of Mr. Alwy, his victim's father, ever sinee tlie mur der on the night of July 17. Hanover, N, H., Aug. %4.—Frank C, Almy is George H. Abbott, the Ver- mont highwayman, who is wanted for an unfinished term of fifteen years in the Vermont state prison and who es- caped about six years ago. Warden Oakes and two woperintendents from Windsor have just aentified him posi- tively as the man sentenced. More Fully Identified. §E3 558 Haxover, N. H., Aug. 25. —The iden- tity of Almy as George H. Abbott has | béen satisfactorily and finally estab | lisbed. The position in which the mur- | derer’s broken leg has forced him to lie has prevented an examination of his back for the scare of buckshot wounds received in the battle with the officers on the Thetford mountain in 15830, | While his cot was being freshened up ne was turned over so far on his side as to reveal his back, whereon were plainly revealed the unmistakable traces of gun- shot wounds. Soon afterward Mrs. Wiemot, the | aunt of George H. Abbott, called to see the cruninsl and identified him as her nephew. Mr. Warden and his young | son also called upon him. They sad “Good morning” to him, and he replied | in kind. There was no further conver- sation. One of Abbott's Exploits, Miss Jeaunette Thomas, a relative of Professor Pattee, whose connection with the Almy case has often been referred | to, tells a story of a midnight visit re- ceived from the murderer July 15, two days before the murder of Christie Warden, This night Miss Thomas slept in the roomn usually occupied by Christie War- den when she stayed at the house of Professor Pattee. She was aroused in | her sleep by a noise in her rooms. She sat up and asked who was there. Her | throat was instantly grasped by a hand, and a voice whispered: ‘Keep still; I'R not injure you." The intruder then | asked if this was not Christie Warden's | room and where Christie was. Miss Thomas told him Christie had left the | house in the afternoon. He demanded to know Miss Thomas’ identity, and then said to her: “I am the lover of Christie Warden, Her par- | ents and sisters oppose my suit, and I | cannot see her at her home.” He then | said to her: “Don't you mention this | night's work to her or to anybody. You | see how ¥ is If it were known that | anybody had entered her chamber at | night her reputation would be blasted forever. You would not want to have that occur, now would you?” he asked, | with a sarcastic laugh i Pledged Her to Secrecy. He then pressed a pistol against her | breast and made her take a solemn oath never to betray him. He then said | he had been in the room before and asked if the door had been fastened Miss Thomas knew by this time that he was lying, as the door has no fastening on it. He then forced an object into her | hand, which proved to bea #-calibes revolver cartridge. He told her w guard | it carefully, and let it always be a re winder of her oath, for if she ever | breathed a syllable of this affair he would kill her. The intruder then de | parted. Miss Thomas’ story confivius a theory that had long obtained mong | those interested in the case, but which | has been withheld from the public, Ahny was wildly jealous of Professor Pattee, and of this jealousy most cruel and unjust suspicion was born, tnvolv- the Professor and Miss Warden, | there was | Lightning J knocked off a large piece of coping on | | away | cansed | deft the park to take a walk. | drove off in | grounds. | spot in the road she jumped from the | He followed amd assaulted her. | | with water i The jury then PUNNSYLVAXIA'S STORM Echoes from the Pail of the Heavy Raion], Ruavixa, Pa, Aung. 26. — During Sun day night's storm thers were many udr- | Valeutine | row escapes from ining.
