THE TIMES, NEW BLOOMFIELD, PA., FEBRUARY 1, 1881.
Trial of a Remarkable Case In Missouri.
The trial of Albert nod Ed. Talbott for
tbe mm dor or their father in Nodaway co.,
Mo., on the night of the 18th of last Bop
tembor, wbloh was fixed to begin on the
11th Instant, deals with one of the most
Interesting cases that ever came before a
Missouri tribunal for hearing on acoount
of the peculiar circumstances attending
the commission of the crime and the exten
sive acquaintance of the murdered man,
who had been for many years a leading
citizen of northwest Missouri, having
represented Nodaway county lu the
General Assembly twenty-five years ago,
and amassed a fortune in the practice of
medicine. Several years ago the dootor
gave up the active praotioe of his profes
sion, and devoted his time principally to
politics, having been originally a Democat,
but latterly a Greenbnoker, aud was
known as a writer and speaker of more
than ordinary ability. The Chicago Times
has a Mitryvillo special giving the details
of the case :
On the fatal Saturday Dr. Talbott reach
ed his home about 0 o'clock In the
evening, when he repaired to his bed
room, where Mrs. Talbott aud their sou
Albert, familiarly called "Bud," were sit
ting. Boon after entering the room, the
doctor took off his coat and vest, as Mm.
Talbott and her son testified at their pre
liminary examination, aud then sat down
ou the side of the bed as though wishing
to rest before retiring for the night. Mrs.
T. at this time sat on tiro foot of the bed,
facing her husband, while Albert sat lu a
chair by the window. A.8 tbe father, moth
er aud ton were occupying these positions
in the room, an ounce aud a half bullet
came crashing through the window, cut
ting oft' two of the doctor's fingers aud
passing entirely through bis body from
side to side, making a frightful wound ;
thence the bullet grazed the leg of Mrs.
Talbott and passed ou imbedding itself
in a wooden partition of the room, where
it was afterward found.
The doctor's injury was at once pro
nounced fatal. After reciving his death
wound he conversed freely with those
around him, dictated his will, and when
the fatal bullet was taken from its lodging
place iu the partition, he took it lu hand,
aud, after examining it carefully, remark
ed: "This means death." And he was
right, for he died iu great agony the next
day. During his conversation after being
shot, when asked if some member of his
household might not have shot him, be
gave evasive answers, and, if he kuew
who his murderer was, he died with the
secret concealed in his breast. From the
fact that the Talbott family had not lived
together very harmoniously for some time
past, it was believed by many that some
member of tbe family had taken his life,
but matters did not assume a tangible
shape until a reward of $300 was offered
by Mrs. Talbott for tbe arrest of her hus
band's astassio.
The hope of seeming this reward led a
detective named Brighton to disguise him
self as a laborer aud go to the Talbott man
sion and apply for work assuming tbo
name of Frank B. Hudson. lie succeeded
in finding empleyment ou a neighboring
farm, where he and his wife whom he rep
resented as his sister, took up their abode.
Brighton alleges that tho boys were fre
quent visitors at his house and became
very intimato with both himself aud " sis
ter," aud during ono of those visits they
confessed to having killed their own father,
he alleging that said confession was made
in the hearing of his wife, who was cou
cealed in a closet off the room. Brighton
further swears that the boys hired him to
for $30 to kill their hired man, Wyatt,
whom, he says they feared, would reveal
the secret of the old man's death, he know
ing all tbe facts. Brighton alleges that,
iu order to got into the couQdence of the
boys, he signed un article of agreement
drawn up by Albert Talbott, to effect that
they should go into the robbing of trains
mails and banks on a large scale, and di
vide the plunder. At the preliminary trial,
in proof of this lat ter statement, the dotec
tive submitted an article of agreement,
which he alleges was written by Albert,
and of which the following is a copy, both
as to spelling aud phraseology :
Monday, October 25th, 1880. We this day
of the lord Eighteene hundred and Eighty
go in contract tocjathcr. Albert P. Talbott,
Charles E. Talbptt Wilfred MItchel Frank B.
Hudson togather for the purpose of Bank rob
biii train robbin and slaig rabbin and safe and
each one shall be sworn into the tame to stay

tain but; and in case any one betrays us of
our one deth Is his portion at any time the first
trane or bank is Robed any one in the
bond can reslne If he chooses, and If he
does reeine he must keep all secrets or he shell
be killed and there must a equal division of
the buty and before any trane Is robed or any
thing Is dun there Is one trailer In the band
that must be killed before we can proceed
fortber.

A thort time before the time appointed
for tbe killing of Wyatt, the hired man,
Brightou bad sprung the trap he had set
for tbe bojs, aud bad thorn arrested on the
cbargoof muider, and Wyattas an aocss
ory. The two brothers repudiate in toto
this story of Brighton's asserting their in
nocence, and claiming that Waytt killed
their father, while "Wyatt declares that Ed.
Talbott, the youngest of the two brother,
aged about 21, put tho doctor out of the
way, and that Albert Talbott was in the
plot to kill him, and that the two brothers
had moulded the fatal bullet up stairs la
the family residence, a few days before the
commission of the crime.
It will be a hotly contested battle for
life, as tbe very best legal talent in the
northwest Missouri has been engaged on
both sides. In the case of Wyatt a motion
for a change of venue will be heard at
the March term.

From Key. N. I'. Granger,
Presiding Elder of the St. Albans District.
St. Albans, Vt., Jan. 20th, 1880.
DR. J. B. KENDALL & CO., Gents : In reply
to your letter I will say that my experience with
Kendall's Spavin Cure has been vory satisfactory
ludeed. Three or four years ago I procured a bot
tle of your agent, and with it, eured a horse of
lameness caused by Spavin. Last season my
horse became very lame and I turned him out for
a few weeks when he became better, but when I
put him on the road be grew worse, when I dis
covered thata ring-bone was forming, I procured
a bottle ot Kendall's Spavin Cure, and with less
than a bottle cured him so that be is not lame,
neither can the bunch be found.
Respectfully yours,
P. N. GRANGER.

and myself, I think 1 ou ;ht to let you know that I
have removed TWO BCNK 8PAVIN8 with Ken
dall's Spavin Cure," one very large one; don't
know how long the Spavin had been there. I
have owned the horse eight months. It took me
four months to take the large one off, and two
months for the small one. 1 have used 10 bottles.
The horse Is entirely well, not at all stiff, and no
bunch to be seen or felt. This Is a wonderful
medicine. It is a new thing here, but If It does
(or all what It has done for me Its sale will be very
great. Respectfully yours,
CHAS. E.PARKER.
