Tbe murderer of the Haiunctt family
near Pittsburg was arrested iu Alle
gheny city and made the following con
fession. 1 left Ilamiiett's bouse just
after supper on the evening of the mur
der, and went directly to llamestead;
I called at a saloon and d.ank two
glatess of br; that was all I bad that j
night; after leaving tbe saloon I went
to a grocery store kept by a German
and purchased come cigars, and candy
for the children, I don't know the
name of the store keeper, bnt I bad
been there several times, thiuk I was
at the store about 9 o'clock in the
evening. J ust as 1 was leaving it came
into my bead that I most bave Ham
nctt's money. I thought he bad a good
deal of money in the house, and as 1
felt so queer all at once in my bead I
thought I must get it. I went direct
ly to the house but dont know bow I
got there. I snppose I must have been
not of my ciind. After getting into
tbe bouse I found that Mr. aud Mrs.
Hamnett bad cot er-rae home.
It occurred to me tbat to get the
money I must kill tbe children. 1
found the ax in the kitchen, and taking
that with iue 1 went up into the room
over the kitchen where Robert Smith
aud m)se!f slept Tie bed was ia tbe
corner of tbe rro, and 1 saw tbat
Ilobrrt was sleeping soundly, with bis
face towards me. I took a position at
tbe front of the bed, and with owe blow
killed the boy. He never moved. 1
cant say how it was tbat the boy's
throat was cat, 1 may bare strode biu
twice, but be never groaned.
At lei t'na boy a as dead, I went into
the a'lj 'ining room, where Ida aad little
Emma wen sietpicg. There were two
beds in the room one in the corner
and the otbei, the on occupied by the
children, near the center. Both tbe
little girls were sleeping. Struck Ida
first and she never moved. I then
raised the ax and struck at Eaunie, she
uttered a cry, and I bit her tbe seeobd
time, she did not groan again.
After this I weut down stairs and
took a position just inside tbe door of
tbe rooa. adjoiuiag the kitchen, and
waited for Mr. aud Mis. Haiuoett to
come home. They came between ten
and eleven o, clock. Mr. Hamnett
came luto tba room first, I was standing
so that be eould not see me, aad 1
struck him from behind, using tba ax.
he fell to the floor; Mrs. Hamnett
then oame rtt'hing into the room, and
as she passed ihruugb the Jour I struck
her but did not kill her, she shrieked
once or twice "ob John!" and then 1
struck a second blow which killed her
instantly, Mrs. Hamnett and tbe baby
were the only ones I bit twice, the
others were killed with one blow, I
used the ax all the time.
1 committed the deed to get Mr.
Hamnett's money. I searched Mr.
llamnett's pockets and obtained bis
pocket-book. It contained only fifteen
dollars in paper money. 1 found Mrs.
Hamnett's pocket-book on the sewing
machine ; there was only fifty cents iu
it. I looked over the bouse, but all
the money I got was fifteen dollars!
The silver money I spent yesterday I
brought with me from Germany. - I did
not get it from tbe house. My only
motive for doing this deed was to get
the uioney. I never had any ill-feeling
towa.ds any of the Ilaumetts: I al
ways liked the little children, and al
ways bought them candy when I went ;
to HoiuesteaJ. The boy Smith and I
were good friends, and I always liked
Mr. and Mrs. Hamnett.
I did not fire the bouse, and it was !
not a part of the plan to cover up the
murder. When searching tbe house I
put an oil lamp iu the sitting room, and
when rushing away freni the building it
was overturned. I thought it would C"1
out ; I did not think the house would
burn.- As soon as I left the building I
proceeded at once to the railroad, and
walked direct to Pittsburgh.
