Dye Works Limited Gleaners and Dyer Toronto tfee Danger of Accept I tag Circwstertial By ETHEL HOLMES and his wife Elizabeth lived on the outskirts of Edinburgh Their nearest neighbor lived about a quarter of a mile distant The appear ed to live happily together till one evening their neighbor Alexander Tweedy beard excited voices coming from the direction of their home wife thought she heard a third voice twice take part in what was going on trying to calm the others but her husband failed to bear her out in this and she was not sure the quarreling stopped and nothing more was heard- The uext morning Tweedy on way to where he worked passed the home and no ticed that it seemed to be deserted- A window pane on the ground floor was broken which had noticed before and at which he wondered because tho were tidy persons and kept home hi good order He continued Ills way not attaching much Importance to what he had seen or what he hud the night before Hut when next morning be pars ed the house again and saw no one about he became curious and going to the window looked In He was shock ed to see evidences of a straggle Everything was in disorder A table that had stood In center of the room had overturned and the fragments of a lamp that had stood on It were scattered over the floor Clothing fay about both mens and womens Tweedy was astonished He had heard no sounds that would indicate anything more than a war of words True his wife hail awakened him in the middle of the night and said that the were quarreling again He had listened but hearing nothing told her that it was due to her Imagi nation and she had better go to sleep and think no more about the matter But now appearances tended to prove that the quarrel had been more serious than he supposed Putting his arm through the aperture left by the broken pane he raised the window and entered the bouse There was nothing of value left In It except the furniture It looked to Tweedy as If either had killed his wife or the wife bad killed her husband and whichever was the murderer had made off with what ever could be carried away hastily But this wan only a theory and did not account for what had been done with the body of the victim Tweedy was about to leave the prem ises when be noticed on the door a strand of red hair The hair was and evidently a womans The tinder shuddered hair was red- Tweedy dropped the strand the floor where he bad found It got out through the window and went on to Edinburgh to his work the even ing when he returned to his home he told his wife that he had seen ex cellent evidence that their neighbor had murdered his wife disposed Id some way of the baby and led with all the valuables Mrs Tweedy listen ed to his recital with horror Im going to the sheriff to tell him of the murder said Tweedy do such thing San was the reply mix up with It Theyll think you had to do with it- Let somebody else And it Handy took his wifes advice Every morning he passed the deserted home on his way to his work and every evening on bis return Ills conscience emote him for not making the tragedy known and on several he told his wife that he would report ft but she always dissuaded him But one day the horror came out through another source A man pass ing a thicket buck of the home an offensive odor and thought the dead body of some animal was there Prompted by curiosity he made an examination and found decaying corpse of a woman Going straight Into the city he reported find and persons were sent out to bring In the body The face had been muti lated besides being decayed so that It was beyond recognition The halt vas red The dress was tartan An examination was made of the home and what Tweedy had found Carefully noted even to the of hair which wan picked up preserved There no doubt on the part of the that had quarreled Willi wife Ordered her ami made oil with the family valuables wan In for him He could not be found and the about to be given up when some one suggested that In time a murderer will visit the scent of his crime A watch was net ana true one day MacGregor captured standing before his house looking at it strangely Ho was mediately arrested Who I are ye me for he asked mind what were for have a chance to find oot later on When Fergus Inform- of the charge against mm and of thai been made ne uttered no reply whatever He seem utterly crushed He wax secure the lawyer permitted a friend to- send him an at torney who asked him what he hud to say Whats the use a asked Fergus Isnt my wife I dont care If they hang me Youd batter make up a story said the lawyer Tell me something that- I can hang a theory on So Fergus told him his story He and bis wife had lived happily togeth er but for a brother of hers who was always applying to them for money and threatening his brother- inlaw If ho didnt get it One night Una broth er came for money His sister defend ed him against the anger of her hus band Fergus his patience told her that if the preferred her brother to he Fergus would go away from her Then he had left them and gone to the home of an old friend who lived alone some distance from the home Fergus declared that was all he knew of the tragedy But how do you account for the murder of jour wife Surely her brother would not have killed her I cant account for it any more than yon can Her brother must be living Cant you suggest some way of finding His testimony if you are Innocent would you He has never had any flxed abode that hare heard of I would not know where or how to look for him Besides if he were not Implicated In the murder be would show himself of his own accord He might keep away to prevent his being called on to testify against you No fear of that he had no love for me The lawyer pondered for awhile then Bald The only defense I can make Is to prove an alibi and that could be done only by fraudulent means Put me on the stand and Ill tell my story Its doubtless the best said the lawyer that can be made out of tho matter bat it will have no effect what ever on a jury The trial of Fergus was looked upon as a mere formality and there was no doubt whatever that be would be convicted His lawyer made the moat out of his story and proof was furnished that his client had been where he claimed to have been since he had left his home The fact that the face of the body found in the thicket could not be recognized was dwelt upon by the prisoners counsel but since the garment on the corpse was one of Mrs dresses the hypothetical methods to show that the body was not that of Mrs fell flat Besides there was the strand of red hair that several witnesses who knew the lady swore was the exact shade of Mrs The judge the jury and the specta tors were bored by the counsels de fense of the jury listening to It perfunctorily and the others talk ing together while It was being spok en When the lawyer sat down public prosecutor arose and said There seems your honor no occa sion for me to sum up this case at length and I will do so very briefly Sounds of a quarrel were beard In the MacGregor home The prisoner dis appeared doubtless taking the family valuables with though they have not been found His wifes body la concealed in a thicket near the bouse Identified by a dress belonging to Mrs MacGregor and by strands of hah found In the boose which she lost dur ing a struggle for her life Counsel for- the defense baa claimed that the case Is one of circumstantial evidence If It should not convict the prisoner then no circumstantial evidence should convict any criminal The words were no sooner spoken than a woman came running Into the courtroom Fergus she cried they tell me theyre going to hang ye for kill ing me The live body of the murdered wom an pushed Its way to the prisoner threw her arms around his neck and patted him lovingly Your honor cried counsel for the defense It has been stated that if the circumstantial evidence In this case should not convict tho prisoner then no person should be convicted by such testimony Therefore It follows that no person should be convicted on circumstantial evidence Every one present dumfounded When the prisoner could find bis voice he asked bis wife to tell where she had been With Waiter Ive been try in to get him out of a scrape be got Into la The mystery of tho MacGregor case remained mystery for ten years Then a man was convicted of
