When the committee arrived at the

'dropping into the burning mass of the

with all their efforts the great heap of

letter " W" engraved on the inside. H
wins found near the place where
skeleton believed to be that of Samuel
Wilson, who disappeared after a uuar-

This discovery convinces tha author

30 years.

from the cellar of the house to the
well, about which the bodies of sever.il
of the victims were buried, was ex
plored and was found to be a well con

is about three feet wide and four feet
high, so that a man by bending "ould
easily make his wny through it an 1
