Search of Miss Howell's body discovered a note from Parkhurst re- dnestine the interview, anditisevuient that both had agreed to die together, as A AAt A 1 inenas wouia not permit inem wj uve together. A note was also found, signed by both, saying rather than live apart they had concluded to die, and ending with the words: "If we have done anything wrong may God have mercy on our souls. Miss J? annie was an esumaoie young lady and highly esteemed by all who knew her. Edward, although some what dissipated in his habits, had many friends, and was a favorite among the young men of the village. The delib erate intention of the parties is further evidenced from the fact thatMis,s How ell had but recently and nnexpectedly returned from Crystal Springs, where she had been sojourning tor some time, She was seen to enter . Parkhurst's room, at the Nichols House, shortly af ter her return, and he 1 followed immediately. Within ten minutes from the time they entered the room the report of the two pistol shots were heard. When the door was forced open the body of Miss Howell was reclining on a sofa, the ex pression of her face that of one in a peaceful slumber, and but tor tne norri ble wound behind the left ear, one wonld not have realized the terrible fact that she was dead. Near the sofa at the foot lay the body of Parkhurst His features were careworn, ana, juag- ine from his position and expression, his death was not as instantaneous as hers. After shooting Miss Howell, he had evidently placed the muzzle of the Distol to his right temple, the ball en tering the head near the eye and com ing out near the lert ear. un rant hurst's bodv was found one letter ad dressed to his grandmother, residing at Lawrenceville, Pa. It will be opened to-morrow. Miss Howell will be bur ied at Bath on Tuesday, at 3 P. m., and Parkhurst at Lawrenceville, Pa., prob ably on Wednesday. V.:' t W '.
