Sergeant Alex B. 8ubers. Brass plate with name cut. Private J. L. Cook. V., and Mrs. Dilion became rood and fast friends. They lived together as sisters, and peace reigned in the house. On Saturday at 12 o’clock, the letter car rier left a letter at the house bearing the Bloom*>bury postmark and addressed in n feminine hand to Mr. Dillon. It was opened by Mrs. Dillon, who was dumb founded at its contents. The letter wa* signed Kettle Cross ley, and she inquired of Mr. Dillon if such a man as William H. Croesley lived in Macon. She said he had abandoned her and his children, and xhe wanted him published. If published, she wanted a copy of the paper containing the notice. When Mrs. Dillon recovered from her astonishment, she showed the letter to Mrs. Croesley, who was loth to believe that her husbanu could he guilty. The letter was then sent to Mr. Dillon at the shop, and ha turned it over to Crossley. In the meantime, a warrant was taken out before Justice Freeman for Crossley, charging him with bigamy, and placed in the hands of bailiff Moore. The build! found Crossley In the afternoon coming from his house. He seemed greatly troubled and frigthened at the arrest, but submitted gracefully. The bailiff allowed him to get shaved and purchase a few cigars. He was then taken to Justice Freeman's office, where our re porter interrogated him. He is twenty- right years old, sallow coinplexloned, wearing mustache and imperial and neatly dressed in a suit of blue, lie seemed to be in great trouble, shedding tears duriug the interview. He said: “This is awful and will break my heart. When I read the letter I rushed home from >m the shop, expecting to find my wife a pool of blood from a hemorrhage. .She the letter, and she believed wliat I said about it. No, the letter was written by my own father. It was written in Macon, forwarded to Bloomsbury and mailed from there. I recognized the handwriting at once. When I get out of this I will make it warm for somebody." Judge Freeman set the hour for a bear ing at 10 o'clock this morning and com mitted Crossley to jail. Before going, however, Mr. Dillon, who felt a regard for Crossley even though he know lie was guilty, called on him and held a hurried Ijtutiea and Gentlemtn: On the 23d of fifty-nine years ago. the Mucon hts as a military organization com menced its existence. Macon was then a hamlet, and the surrounding country, now populous, had no other civilization than that made by the Indians. The men who composed the company at that time were inured to more hardships than those who belong to it now. From Butler's History we find that the first captain was Kdwa.*d W. Wright, and forty men com posed the company. ‘ Since its organization the company has had ita quarters in rented buildings. At oec time the company met in a small room nnd the drill room was the street. Then it met in Washington Block and returned to that building at the close of the war. It then rented a room iu Masonic Halt, moving Irom there to Ayres's Hall, in the third story. For half a century It has been occupying quarters of this kind. The question of building an armory was agitated and commenced by buying this lot. At the time of purchasing it we knew nothing of its history; but now, on the testimony of our oldest citizens, we find that the house which we tore down a short while ago was occupied by Captain Wright, the first captain of the company. This Is a remarkable coincidence. After buying the lot. we have commenced to erect an armory that will be a profit to the company, a credit to the citv and be a place where we can meet our friends. “And to you, gentlemen of the Masonic fraternity, it becomes my duty to invite you to lay the corner stone with the usual ceremonies, which you can now proceed with ” Dr. J. Emmet Blackshoar, acting grand master, replied as follows: “Mr. Chairman, Ladirs and Gfntltnun: The fraternity of Free and Accepted Ma sons have, from beyond a period long since lost in the remote mist of antiquity, been accustomed to lay the corner stones of important public edifices, when invited so to ao, with the solemn and impressive ceremonial observances of the cratt.

He told Mr. Dillon he was caught, and requested him (Dillon to ask Mrs. Crostley to come down an. swear that she was not his wife. Mr. Dil lon told Mm In plain words that he would Carry no such message. Crossley then asked bis (riend to take charge ot his money, about $43. He was then taken to Jail. About 10 o'clock on Saturday night, Justice Freeman, believing that the only eridence agsln.t him was th* letter, which was no legal evidence, and as Mr. Dillon assured him that there was no other test!- meny to bs brought out, concluded to re. has* him from Jail on his own recognis ance. This was done, though the Judge would not have done so had he !>een in possession of the (sets develiqied later. Shortly after his release from Jail. Cross- by went to his house and called M r. Dillon out. He admitted the first marriage and aaid he had done wrong. It was their fault that be waa let loose, It would be Ids fault if he was erer catnrht. He then asked for bis clothes, money and pistol. These were S een him and then be started on Ills way, r. DUIon walking about a mile with him. Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock Mrs. th. crossley Blaamy Case. Mr. A. 8. Crossley, fatherof William II., the alleged bigamist, called on us last night snd desired to correct that portion ol his son's statement which referred to his writing the letter from Eloomsburg. He said be cam* to Mscon three months ago with a full knowledge of his son's cuilt. He came by tbesdvice of attorneys In Bloomsburg. who thought some amica ble adjustment of the trouble could be made. As a parent, he did not want to see his son arrested, neither did lie want to know of his guilt, and during the time he has been in Macon he has endeavored to hare the matter aettled. These etf'orts, on his part, always resulted in a quarrel. He knew nothing of the letter written by William'a first wife, and which was re ceived here last Saturday, ami when told of his son's arrest, was reluctant to testify against him, as he knew his evidence would commit him to Jail. Nothing has been heard of William since his midnight departure. Mrs. Crossley number two srill leave In a few days for her former home in Modi- aonville, O. SUGAR.
