convention. Bryan's foe. Gover

nominated. Bryan had tried to

i
NASHUA, N. H July 31. (By
Associated ! Press). The story of
how two aged sisters were bat
tered to death with stove wood
sticks in order that their slayers,
one a boy bf 15, might share their
little estate, was told' today by
Louis Labombarde of Merrimack
In the cottage in Hudson where
the bodies of Helen and Georgiana
Glllis were found a week ago. La
bombarded who had been ' under
questioning since yesterday, broke
down and admitted that he and
his young brother-in-law, Charles
Lefebvre, chore boy for the Gill is
sisters, were responsible .for the
crime.?
Labombarde , was brought to
Nashua - immediately and locked
York last summer McAdoo him-!nP ' formal charge of mur-
self was almost forgotten at times
because of -the bitterness of the
easterners toward- the- Commoner.
Therefore, it is believed that his
removal will tend to eliminate the
intense personal element.

Lefebvre suggested that, he and
Labombarde kill the aged . women
and divide the money, the confes

agreed. On Wednesday afternoon!
they went to the Gillis home "to.
the house where there was a wood
pile and took an armful of sticks,"
Labombarde said. "Each of us
took one of the sticks. 1-wentinto
