with blood. Large drops and pools
clearly indicated the direction the
woman bad taken after sbe had
been stabbed, and on opening the
door into a rear yard her .body was
discovered. She lay upon the walk
distance from the door."
The elder woman was-1 vine upon
the kitchen floor, bleeding profusely
but conscious. - She' was able.: to
give a brief account of the affair to
the officers.- She was removed to
Good Samaritan hospital,; where lit
tle hopes of recovery are . given out.
PatrousaoiMarX Jimle was the
first offioer upoh the scene and was
soon joined by others. ' It was with
the greatest efforts they kept back
the orowds of Italians -'and others
who gathered about the house soon
after the twgedy.
','Savignoni had paid attentions to
the .woman lor years," said : cna of
the neighbors who was intimately
acquainted with their affairs.. "He
was born in Venice , and there he
first knew the girl. : ,' He came" to
Portland ' during the ' Lewis and
Clark fair, when Bignani and his
wife were living here. : - -
"In order' to escape him they
went to San Frisco and Los Angeles
and he followed them there. Re
cently :. they, returned . to Portland
and he came, too. ;
"On several occasions within the
last week or so her husband has
ejected . Savignoni from tbe house
and threatened more severe punish
ment if. be returned. ' ' Savignoni
has told several of bis friends that
he swore a long time ago that the
girl should be hit and that she must
die if she did not. He kept bis
word." ' . ::-X-.:---
' About the house where Savigno
ni wreaked his veageanceh there was
an excited crowd of Italians this
morning. Dark-haired women with
babes in their arms swore vengeanoe
while men cureed deeply. Threats
erf lynching and vows to aveuge the
deed were made - by f riend & and
neighbors of the stricken ' family:; r
i ; Mr. and Mrs.'Larkia occupy the
rooms on the second . floor, of the
houBe. She beard the soreams of
the little baby as he lay, in agony
on the kitchen floor, : and thinking
perhaps the little fellow had injured
himself white the mother was out
side, she rushed down the front
stairs to his assistance. At the bot
tom of the stairs she met Cecil,
frantic with fear; .The little fellow,
too young : to . have a full under
standing of the horrible r sight, hie
childisn eyes witnessed, wrung his
bande. His little body shook with
the excitement and . the sobs that
welled up in his throat She spoke
to him, but he made only a few in
coherent Bounds.
Even then Mrs. Larson did not
realize that anything was wrong,
While ehe stood in the hallway for
a moment trying to g I isomethicg
from : Cecil, mtn from the street
broke open the front door. "What's
gone, wrong?" they asked, and when
she could give them no information
th6y told her of the bleeding woman
who had but the ' moment before
rushed dowii the ; back steps and
dropped dead on the eidewslk. v
Then she went to the kitchen.
The little baby lay on the floor close
to the body of the grandmother.
Its clothes were .covered with blood
and be lay in a, .bipod y.,pool which
had flowed from the wounds of the
old woman. Mra. Larson s'epped
