Last Monday fur persons were put into
the prison OF York county, charged with


having committed a murder. Thc circum-


stances of the case are, SO far as We have


heard, as follows: About the end OF March

which she had frequently made. She says
that Jacob Seitz and his wife murdered
Brown; she having left the room in which they

into an anti chamber or the kitchen where
