A Murderous Lamb. ms. UMft U trjtsco-NfitN woman, massed with ponosno Has son, dauoeteb avd two SEIOHBOBS — THE SLAIN CHILDREN THOSE SHE HEROICALLY SAVED DU- XIKO THE INDIAN MASSACRE or 1862. Ellswobth, 'W'is., May 24,1873. A murder trial opens here to-morrow which in of a particularly interesting nature, details of which have as yet been published in none of the Eastern journals. The alleged crimi nal is charged with having taken human life as freely as ever did Lydia Sherman, and by the same subtle agent—poison. At the same lime she is a wife and mother whose charac ter has always been above suspicion, and who, in the Indiau massacre eleven years ago, bore herself as heroically as any of the wo men of two centuries ago in the old Indian wars. The facts in this case are briefly as fol lows— The alleged criminal is Mrs. Channcey S. Iamb, who with her husband and baby, went to Sibley county, Minnesota, from Vermont about fifteen years ago. Settling on a farm near Arlington, they lived and prospered for four years, two more children being bom to them. Then came the memorable massacre of 1862, when the red wave of savage invasion swept over the yonng State of Minnesota and left what had been a smiling land a waste of blood-slaked ashes. Mr. Lamb was absent from borne at the tills, but his wife fled for safety. With her baby daugher on a cushion in her arm, her eldest boy running by her side and the other son toddling with diffi culty, holding to her apron, she walked to St. Tanl, where her husband joined her. Her es cape was part of the history of the massacre ami was published far and wile by the Her ald and other contemporary journals. After the family had been reunited they decided to abandon the Minnesota homestead, whence they bad been so rudely frightened, and re moved to Trimbelle, a small town in this (Pierce) county, six or sefen miles from Ellsworth. Here they secured a farm and prospered. Their infant children grew np to boyhood and girlhood; they worked inces santly and diligently; both of them were ap parently devout Christians, and there was not a sick bed for miles aronnd whither Mrs. Lamb was not summoned and where she was not cheerful and tireless in her ministra tion;. DEATH or HEB HUSBAND. In September, 1871, Mr. Lamb and his eldest son were at work in the field near the house, stacking com, when suddenly the father fell to the ground. Mrs. Lamb, who was in the porch, ran to him, lifted his head and asked him if he had a fit. He conld only gasp in broken sentences, “Yes—my Jeans is coiniDg; I'm goipg home—good-bye!" when he died. His wife remained alone with her dead, bedewing the face, now set and unre sponsive, with her tears for two hours, until her son returned with assistance and the body was removed. Mrs. Lamb remained alone on her farm that winter, and in the ensuing spring leased the tillable land on shares to a neighbor, James W. Ottman. Just one year ago to-day Dan Orrin, her younger son, a boy of thirteen, died suddenly. No one was in the house with him but his mother at the time of his death. She gave out that the boy had died of heart disease, and stated that his sufferings hod been intense, spasms and con vulsions having rapidly succeeded each other and internal agonies having knotted the mnscles and bent the body to the shape of a bow. Her sorrow was deep for the loss of the child, who, ten years before, had clung to her apron and been helped onward by her weak arm, then strong with the might of maternal love, as they fled from the tomahawk of the ruthless savages. Less than oue month afterwards, on the 21st of Jurn*. JIS72, the angel of death again en- tereiLllie sorely stricken hpusehold. Her on ly daughter, Sarah, the baby that she had car ried on a pillow for so many miles, at the lime ot the massacre, died as suddenly as had died ber brother, with precisely the same symptoms and sufferings as had been display ed in his case. Tbe mother was alone in the house at the time. Six Weeks later another mysterioos death oc curred at the Lamb homestead. Tbe victim ibis time was not one of the family, but Mrs. Irene A. Ottman, the wife of the Ottman who had leased the farm on shares. On the morn ing of the 3d of August she had walked over to the bouse to assist her husband, and, agree ably to her custom, called on Mrs. Lamb and spent some moments in conversation with that lady. Feeling ill, Mrs. Ottman asked Mrs. Lamb, who had a widespread local cele brity as a culler aQd compounder of herbs and other simples, to give her something to do her good. Mrs. Lamb gave her some drops of a preparation which for the time relieved her. Mrs. Ottman then walked home, Mrs. Lamb accompanying ber aod lavishing on her every mark of attention. Arrived at her own house, Mrs. Ottman's SPASMS Or AGONY returned and she requested Mrs. Lamb to give her more medicine. Mrs. Lamb went home and returned with another dose, which she administered. It brought no relief to the suf ferer, who died in a conple of hours. The fact that these three healthy persons had died within a few weeks of each other, the sole attendant and physician in each case being Mrs. Lamb, ana the symptoms dis played by all the sufferers being identical, had, despite the high character and general l>opalarity of Mrs. Lamb, caused no scanty comment. Whispers that there had been ionl play bad been heard, though none loudly, or even openly gave suspicion breath, for sus picion in these peaceful, rural localities, is ‘a plant of alow growth " But twelve days later a deadly finish was given to conjecture, and the passing bell for another suddenly-summoned victim rang the alarm in tones none conld mistake or refuse to hear. Koyal Garland, an unmarried farm er in the vicinity, had a nnmber of hands en gaged on his farm in harvesting, and as he had frequently done before, employed Mrs. Lamb to go over to bis honse and cook dinner tor them. On the 15th of Angnst they all partook with thair usual heartiness, of the .tinner Mrs. Lamb had prepared for them. Shortly after Mr. Garland telt unwell, and, going to the house, asked Mrs. Lamb to give him some pain-killer. She went to a neigh bor's house, procured a vial of pain-killer and gave him some in a cup. Soon after drinking it he was seized with the same spasms and convulsions which had developed themselves in the other cases. Daring the paroxysms she knelt by btm and tended him assiduous ly, paying no less attention to the weal of his soul than to the welfare of his body, and ex horting him to “look to Jesus," to “put his trust in the Lamb,” to prepare humbly for death, ’ Ac., interceding for him, meanwhile, jt the heavenly throne, in a most edifying and exemplary manner. Dr. Cotton was sent for bnt arrived too late. He found Mr. Gar land dead and Mrs. Lamb watching over the body. MBS. LAMB ABBESTED. After this it wag impossible that no legal proceedings should be instituted, and on the 20th of August Mrs. Lamb was arrested, upon the affidavit of James W. Ottman, who ac cused her of having caused the death of Itoyal Garland, Irene Ottman and her own two children, Dan and Saiah Lamb. On tbe 5th of September she was fully committed for trial, her attorneys waiving an examination. Tbe bodies of these four persons, as well as that of her bnsband, were at once examined, and the stomach and other organs of each re moved and submitted to chemical analysis. The results of all these tests were the FINDING OF STXXCHHINE in all the bodies save that of Mr. Lamb, from five to six grains being discovered in each. Search being made in Mrs. Lamb's cottage, among ber bottles and vials was found one containing extract of sarsaparilla, in which the same deadly poison was largely mixed. It was only natural to expect that after the downiall of this idol of the country side those who had been the warmest of her supporters and the most lavish of the sympathisers should go over te the opposite extreme and find tn trifles light as air, which before bad hardly been noticed, confirmation strong of the unhappy woman's gnilt. Her numerous charitable deeds, the unsweariog assiduity with which she had always nursed the tick, all these were now regarded aa parts of a deep laic and devilish plot to satisfy tbe cravings of a morbid and desperate heart for the life blood of victims. Amid all this babble of scandalous tongues it was not long ere theories accounting for her crimes presented themselves. It is be lieved, go far as human reason can go to wards unravelling a secret, the clew to whieb thin her ow Mrs. Lamb to succeed ber as the head of Mr. Ottman’s family. The poisoning of Mr. Gar land is more difficult to account for, but it is believed that he had offended her—os he had several mairiageable women in the neighbor hood, being somewhat weak-minded in the m itter of women—by matrimonial proposals, and she took his life by way of revenge for what she considered an insult. Musical and Dramatic Notes. Leroy, author of “ Cousin Jack,” is writing a new play for W. J. Florence. J. B. Booth has purchased “La Femino de Feu” directly from Belot, the author. Hr. Arthur Cheney has not yet determined to rebuild the Globe Theatre, Boston. He has the subject under consideration, but it is probable that he will not arrive at a decision before the middle of next week. Offenbach has leased the Gaiete Theatre, Pans, and will commence the season in Sep tember with a new play, by Barrier, entitled “LeGaacon.” The scenes of the events are partly laid in France and in Scotland, at the time of Harie Stuart. The summer season began last evening at Wood’s Museum, when Mr. Frank Mayo, a young American actor, made his first appear ance in New York this year, in Murdoch’s new and beautiful play, entitled “Davy Crockett.” While having a close connection with life among the savages, “Davy Crockett” is by no means of the rough class of border dramas, but a realistic portrayal of nature, abounding with poetry and pathos, grave and gay. Miss Rosa Riind, a clover yonng actress, made her first appearance at the Museum in the part of Elenor Vaughan. The other members of the compaby supported Mr. Mayo very well. The charitable entertainment for the bene fit of the Foundling Asylum, to be given on the afternoon of Thursday, the 12th inst, at the Academy of Music, under the manage ment of Augustin Daly, promises one ot the greatest combinations of dramatic and musical talent New York has yet known. The list of volunteers up to y ester day jeom prised Charles Fechter, Miss Neilson, E. A. Sothern, Agnes Ethel, G. L. Fox, Bryant’s Minstrels and the entire Ninth Regiment Band. The stock companies of the Fifth Avenue Theare, Grand $ Opera House and Union Square Theatre, and the orchestras of Wallick’s The atre and Niblo’s Garden are also to partici pate. The Scourge op the Planters.—The Georgetown Times regrets to learn from Dr. A. M. Forster that caterpillars have made Hieir appearance in his rice field. Fortunately, in his case, they were, in consequence of the high tides, very easily drowned out. Mr. W. J. Lucas of Santee says they have made their appearance on the place he plants. As be is in no want of water in that locality, they were easily disposed of. It is a matter, however, of importance to all rice planters to know that the caterpillar is about, in order thrt they may keep a bright lookont for him, for its ravages in a night and day might seriously cut short the profits of their labor. The New England Christian Convention will be held in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, this week.
