Years Ago BRIDGEWATER, Mesa, Oct. 5.- Jesse Pomeroy, America's oldest iiicr in point of service, died sud- denly Friday at the Bridgewatcr state farm. In i813, Jesse Pomeroy, a. boy of 15, murdered his chum ln circum- stances of abominable cruelty. Med- ical experts, called in the case, re- ported the child was so morally warped that he should be kept in solitary confinement, and he was committed to prison for life under those circumstances. His solitary plight, however, mov- ed the Massachusetts prison warden to pity, and he gave the lad a cat as a. companion in his cell. A few days later, however, the boy's mania ' overcame him, and he killed his pet with refinements of torture. After that he lived alone. Almost half a century passed. and the old lifer at last saw a chance to escape. He got out of his cell, crept down the corridor and passed the turnkeys room. Freedom was all but in sight. Suddenly the turnkeys heard a fearful cikmor, they rushed out, to find Pomeroy struggling with a cat which had mysteriously ap- peared from nowhere and launched himself upon the convicts head. The guards seized Pomeroy and he was led back to his cell. When the excitement subsided the incident of the cat's death 50 years before was recalled by more than one curious mind. r In Memoriam MRS. JOHN CAMERON Mrs. John Cameron, whose death has already been noted, was the daughter of Edward Ellis and An- nie Rogers, his wife, and was born at East Bideford, March 6, 1819. She had for about four years, been in failing health. The very best medical skill was unavailing to stay the uncertain hand of death, nnd she succumbed very suddenly from heart failure. Her adopted home was in Cam- bridge, Mass, and at the time of death, was visiting her relatives, and died at the home of her sister, Mrs. H. F. Phlllips,.Tyne Valley. 0f an original family of twelve, only one had died, previous to the death of the deceased. To mourn, she leaves her hus- band, John Cameron and sons. El- lis and James, and daughters, Buc- lah and Dorothy, and two step- children, Edwin and Janette. A short service was held at the home of her sister, Mrs. Phillips. Tyne Valley, thence the remains were taken to the Undertaking Parlors of her nephew, Mr. G. Roy Phillips, Kensington. They were, from here, conveyed to Cam- brldgehMassq accompanied by her two children, where interment took place. Mrs. Cameron was a lady of in- tegral character, and was the ad- mired of every social circle in which shemoved. Her first duty was to God, then to her family. The home circle was her kingdom, and here, with her beloved husband, she reigned supreme. Thoughtful and charitable, she was, and the home circle and the social sphere were the superior because of her prcs-. once. She decreed the happiness of others before her own, and her ab- sence will leave a void that time cannot fill. Her family and her friends will ever hold her memory most dear, and the wise counsel ‘and the emphatic exnnlplc that she has chosen, will long, long, endure. -Y. ELLIOTT COCIIRANE Elliott Cochranc, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Farrcr Cochranc, Gaitrin Road, Rockciiffe, died yesterday after an illness of nearly two years. He was born at Melrese, Mass, i7 years ago, and came to Ottawa with his parents when a. baby and had lived here the greater part of his life. Elliott Cochrano was educat- ed a1; the Model School here and later attended Ashbury College, Rlockciiffe, until ill-health forced him to leave school. Ho was a mem- ber of st.

T. 8911888, who acted as $60,003 in the same period last to help him-New York Evening Mystic Rites To Bring Rain Resorted To WENNIPEG, Oct, 5- Strange mystic rites,’ revived last July by farmers of the little Ukrainian settlement of Senkiw, Man, in an effort to save their drought strick- en crops from destruction, may, in the opinion of those participating in the ancient and unlawful cere- mony. have succeeded in bringing about a downpour, but they also got at least three members of the community into serious trouble. Resulting from the peculiar per- formance, a trio of farmers, John Sslamdyk, Mike Maurschuk and Sidar Smuk, were arraigned be- fore Magistrate Andrews at Emer- son inst Monday afternoon. Upon their conviction under 237 (B) of the criminal code, which deals with interfering with or the offering of any indignity (o human remains, they were allowed their freedom on five years silspendcd sentence. The trouble arose, 5o far as p0- lice can learn, last July, when, despite sufficient rainfall in other sections of the district, crops in the immediate vicinity of Ssnkiw. situated just north of Emerson, suffered severely from drought. Being somewhat 0f a supersti- tious nature, old time residents sought advice from the "wise" wo- man of the community, who, call- ing upon her supposed clairvoyant talents, suggested a mystic ritual, which, she claimed, would relieve the suffering.» Two years previous, in 1930, the "wise" woman declared, a young girl had been drowned in Mosqui- to Creek, a small stream running through the district. This, ghe said had angered jhc gods, who would shower no-further favors until some sacrifice had been made. Should the body of the unfortu- nate drowning victim be disinter- red, said the "wise" one, and the coffin drenched with water, the wrath of the gods would be appeas- ed and the rain, once more would pour down upon the thirsting grain. And so, following cut these strange instructions, a little group of worried farmers visited the graveyard by the dead of night. removed the earth from the top of the coffin, showered it with water and after again covering it up, slunk homeward through the darkness to avvalt results. ‘Ihey had not long to wan, u. 00151118’ to several superstitious members of the community, for, on me fourth day, min {e11 in {or fonts over the stricken area. Mos- quito Creek was again filled to overflowing and the crops of the Senkiw district were saved. Everyone seemed happy, and 1: was not until a. few weeks ago that a, relative of the drowned girl himself a farmer in the communi- ty heard of the strange ceremony performed over her grave. Anger- vdi he promptly notified the au- thorities, and a. few days later the three accused were apprehende¢ Still believing that the mystic rites were entirely responsible for the rainfall the more superstitious of the old timers of the district; are said to be amazed at the action of the child's relative, whose own crops, they claim, were also saved by the "miracle." drum» onion dlbufidy THURSDAY , . i TOO-fuxis Squares, regular meet- ing - Social Hull.
