The chil en were born dead and were placed in a small box for burial, but before they wero buried neighborhood gossip had' charged that the twins were born alive and the mo ther had destroyed them by burning. This L coming to the ears of the parents the box containing the bodies was kept,and at their request a number of persons inspected it. Last Thursday, it being supposed the slan der was refuted, the bodies were buried. Yesterday a warrant was sworn out by a negro woman charging Mrs. Pierce - with murder. A box was brought nere by tne officer making the arrest, which - was sup posed to nave contained the bodies, but an examination by medical experts developed the fact 'iiat it contained the remains of a chicken. One of the negro witnesses' pro duced charred bones, which Bhe swore was the carcass of One of the children, and was taken from the fire in Pierce's house. These bones were clearly proved to be those of a cat. From the testimony it was evident that the bodies of the children, as buried by the father on Thuraday,had been unearthed, the remains taken from the box and re placed by those of a chicken.
