ed hody of Amos Rltter, a farmer and
recluse, was found In his Knrden, near
Dewart, this county. In the soft earth
about the soot where tho corpse lay
there were many evidences of stiupgle
Tho victim's boots stood alongside his
corpse, evidently hnvlnsr been drawn
from his feet by his assassin who
hoped to find therein homo of the prold
which Rltter wns supposed to have. Be
side bclnc; shot in the head Rltter vvus
frightfully chopped in the face The
assassin had craftily wiped out his foot
prints by covering them with dirt ns
he hacked his way In the weeds at the
tdgo of the garden, and save for the
ghastly corpse of his victim, as it lay
near the fence over w hlch the old man
had evidently chased the robber, there
was no apparent clue that would point
to the crime's perpetiator. Some work
was done by the county detective In
tho way of InvestlBatlon, nnd at ono
time It was hinted that the murderer
of the old miser would soon be nppro
hended Rut as xot the criminal Is un
punished, Indeed, the crime appears to
have been forgotten.
Very recently a Union county cor
oner's Jury, investigating the death of
Amos Raker, a White Deer Valley
farmer who was found dead in his barn
declared that the old man had come to
his death at the hands of parties un
known. It was a craftily planned and
executed crime. The first effoit of the
perpetrator was to give tho appearance
of suicide; a rope or strap, w Ith one end
fast about the old man's neck, was
found by those who discovered tho
corpse, but there wns no mark about
the neck nor was the dust on the rafter
above, where the rope might have lieen
tied, disturbed Abrasions and con
tusions on the body showed that Baker
had been beaten Rut in a few weeks
the case was, dropped, and Union coun
ty yet has to ferret out the party or
parties responsible for the old man's
death.
About two years ago tho body of a
15-year-ohl boy was found In a box car
In the Pennsylvania railroad yards In
Wllllamspott, and today an unmarked
grave In Qranrtvlevv cemetery contains
the remains of the unidentified corpse.
That tho boy had been murdered was
shown beyond doubt by the crushed
skull and a blood stained cudgel that
lay alongside the body. Tho corpse was
lit a car that had been used fnr the
shipment of horses, tho car having
been shipped empty from Rlkton, Md ,
and during a btlef stop of the train
at Willlamsport the body of the hoy
was dlscovcied. Tho condition of tho
corpso proved that llfo had been ex
tinct for at least twenty-four hours,
making It Impossible for tho murder
to have occurred In Ivcomlng county.
Rut the discovery of the hody within
the limits of Lycoming placed the task
of Investigation upon tho authorities
of that county. A determined effort
was made to Identify the victim and
to solvo tho mystery surmundlng the
boy's death, but without success Time
has long slnco obliterated chance of
solution, and unless the assassin, If ho
still lives, confesses his crime, the mur
der of tho unknown youth will go un
solved forever.

has been at a high tension ever since
the strange dlsnppeaianca of the rich
lumberman In Apt II last, yet up to thl
time the Clinton county authorities
have offered no reward and employed
no detective to unravel the mystery".
Friends of the deceased, to be sure,
have had a detective' at work for In
formation concerning Rohn's where
abouts or fate is yet offered by tha
family but none of the work done has
had tho support of county authorities
because, it Is claimed, there has been
no proof of death, and therefore nore
cun say that Rohn was really murder
ed, rive months have passed slnci
Rohn disappeared, and In that time not
a scintilla of knowledge as to hla fate
has been obtained. There are certain
suspicious circumstances about the
case, but none of these have received
ofllclnl investigation, and it looks as
though the Rohn case was destined to
become dimmed by the cobwebs of time
unless It solves Itself.
ANNABEL LEE.
It was many and many a year ago.
In a kingdom by the sea,
1 hat a maiden thero lived whom you mar
know
By the name of Annabel Lee.
And this maiden she lived with no other
thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more
than love
I and my Annabel Lee;
AVlth a love that tho winged seraphs ot
heav en
Coveted her and mo.
And this was tho reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blow out of a cloud, chllllns
My beautiful Annabel Lee
So that her high-born kinsman came
And boro her away from me.
To shut her up In a sepulcher
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels not half so happy In heaven.
Went envying her and me
Yes! that was the reason (as all men
know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by
night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
I
For our lovo It was stronger by far than
tho love
Of thoso who were older than vr
Of many far wiser than we
And neither tho angels In heaven above,
iior the demons down under the sea,
Cnn over dissever my soul from the soul
Of tho beautiful Annabel Lee,
ror the moon never beams without
bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee,
And the stars never rise but I feel the
bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
And so, all tho nlght-tlde, I He down by
tho side
Of my darling nfly darling my life and
my bride,
In the sepulcher there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea,
Edgar Allan Poe.
