Yesterday, the bodies of the two
children who had died in January
last were exlluined and an autopsyi
performed tbercou. They discovered'
no traces of poisoning and the evi-
dence wus clear that they had died
from bronchial pneumonia. An au-
topsy was also performed oil thc
body of the boy Johnnie who had
died last Saturday morning. When
the boy lmd been sick his symptoms
were exactly the same as those of
the other children. The autopsy how-
ever. revealed some marked changes
in the appearance of the organs. As
the boy had been sick longer, these
changes were more marked. The
chief difference was thc yellowish
appearance of the liver and other or-
gans. Tile same -marking was notic-
ed on the stoinacli, but lint quite so
pronounced ns on the others. There
was some discoloration on the intes-
tines, but filrther down from that
which siiowcd on the yoiiiigent child.

Hl‘lCl`fld'l` DIES WITH l-iil\l
i
DIGBY, April 19-“Jerome” died
this morning, his secret dying with
lilni. Tile sentence seems but an un-.
important piece of news, but there
is a great mystery of international
importance surrounding this man,
who was believed by many to be li
sou of a, nohicmnn of some foreign,
nation. I
About the year 18.54 n small
schooner sailed across the Buy of
Fundy and after iuanoellvfiug for a.
time on Mink Cove, Digby- Neck, was
seen to send ii small boat ashore
and after rl few minutes returned to,
the strange vessel. ln the meantime‘
n half-wittod family living in li camp
af. the head of the tide noticed that
thc boat limi left li iiinn on the
shore. `
In this portion of the Buy oil
l*`un<ly thc tide rises and falls 28i
feet perpondicularly and in covcsi
whore the beach is quite level the..
tide runs off along distance, The in-i
cldent occurred at low water. Hall
way down the beach the strange peo
plc had left a man, sitting on li rock.
His legs had been recently ampiita-
l.ed nt the knees. Besides hinl were ll
box of shiiis' hard biscuit liud il
small keg oi water. He would, how-
ever, have perished with the iiicom
lug tide if he had not been-carried to
this camp on the shore. This land-
ing was also ivitncssed by fwo gun
l
l
l
ners who were out shooting at tip;
time, one of which was _` Ban-lupi
Giclney, proprietor of the Westport.
and Digby Telephone G0., who' still'
lives at Mink Cove. _ '
The strange man appeared to _bs
about nineteen or twenty yeari,,_of
age, was dark co p1exionod..__'ycll-
dressed and thought to be xibwcll-
bred Italian of noble birth. ,ro-
fused_ however. to talk and,ae 'thc
people who rescued him' were toopoor
financially to keep him, he _' was
transferred to the home Oi, a, man
named Morton at Centreville.; 
known as 'l’ro'_it Cove), Digby ec
about seven miles from where he wav;
discovered. ' ' _ 
A few years afterwards he ,_ _,wap
conveyed across St. Mary's Bayfill' i
small boat and landed at hfqtdghoh-,
a Frcucii settlement where an Dril-
inll and a liumllcr of other foreigncs
resided. . _
All these, however. he refused '+o
cuuvci-.sc with, and never spoke 4,
word during the remainder of _his
life. , -_
