iheir guns and entered the room, when they shot
Mrs. Cosdeo, but she made and effort and ran in
to the yard and was found dead, having a ball
through or near het heart, and two stabs upon
her person. They then shot dead Miss Cosdeuf,
on whose person there are also two stabs.
One of tht fiends went up stairs, and found
Miss Webster, a sister of Mrs. Cbsden, in bed
where she had been confined by sickness for two
weeks : she implored huu to spare ber life; told
him if money was his object, all she. had was in
her trunk, to take it but to spare her life. The
monster raised his gun and presented it, when
she raised ber feeble arm to protect her person
from the merciless brute : the ball in iis course lore
off the greater portion of her arm. exposing the
larger arteries, snd forcing itse f through her bo
dy ; four slugs were also found in her bed, which
was set on fire by the discharge of the gun or by
this demon. Another of these rillians repaired to
the kitchen and shot down the negro woman, the
ball passing through her body. ' The while and
negro lads made their escape to Georgetown
Roads, a distance of two miles and a half, and
gave the alarm, when the citizens immediately
repaired to the place, and scoured the neighbor
hood, but could get no ciue to the murderers.
Mrs Cosdeo and Miss Cosdeo were kil ed.
Mr. Cosdeo lived until near ten o'clock, between
two and three hours. He talked freely to neigh
bors ; did not know either of the monsters ; to him
they were strangers. He stated that he did aot
know that he had an enemy in the world, and that
be had do feelings of enmity towards a human
being, and could not divine the motive to the deed.
Miss Webster, who it is feared, is shot through
the lungs and supposed mortally, did not know the
man who shot her ; she described him as having
black whiskers. Her clothes and money remain
ed untouched, and plunder does not seem to have
been the motive for the deed.
The servant woman yet lingers it is feared
mortally Wounded aod she aod Miss W. and tbe
lads think they would know these murderers if
they could see them.
Suspicion has fallen upon no one in our count v.
and we cannot believe that a human being exists
in Kent county who is capable of the deed. Ru
mor says they came from Delaware, but all is yet
conjecture. Mr. Cosdeo was a young man. rep-
rcocuicu roues must excellent citizen, harm esa
and inoffensive, and a sood farmer. He resided
on the Moody Farm, lyrag on the main road from
Cbarlestown to Philadelphia, about midway h.
ween Georgetown Cross Roads and the head of
Sassafras.- and the dwelling is about a quarter of a
rime irom ine main road. ;
Governor Lows has offered a reward of 11 fttn
for the arrest of the murderers aod it is hoped that
they may be speedily brought to iuaticefor the nr-
peiration of this most awful crime.
