They are making no search for this "woman of mysâ€" tery." 80 ESDRlS _ Mrs. Kate Kinsella, 78 Bathurst street, who for two weeks, unsuspectâ€" ingly acted as McCullough‘s landlady, states that the girl who came with the fugitive gave her age as 24, was slight and darkâ€"in appearance, rather under the average height, and wore a black silk dress. At this time the police were looking for Miss de La:â€" velle, and had issued a circular deâ€" scribing her as 23 years of age, with dark hair, five feet four inches in height, and wearing dark clothes. Miss Lavelle‘s statement to the pâ€" lice was that she was sleeping in vaâ€" cant houses for nights previous to her arrest. Was It Migg Lavelle? The woman who stayed with Mcâ€" Cullough sfept at 78 Bathurst until the day Miss Lavelle‘s arrest. Who communicated with the police with regard to McCullough‘s hiding place? police, through Inspector of Detectites Guthrie, state that it was neither Mrs. Kinsella, his landâ€" lady, nor the woman who came to visit Mrs. Kinsella one afternoon earâ€" at 78 Bathurst +4 ly this week, and stated to her hostâ€"\ ess that her boarder was the man much wanted by the police for the murder of Acting Detective Williams. Neither was it either of the two young ladies who also roomed at 78 Bathurst street, and had often occaâ€" sion to see McCullough, but who statâ€" ed that they never suspected his idenâ€" tity. The police state that the inforâ€" mation did not come from Miss de Lavelle or any woman at prseent unâ€" der sentence in their custody. No Spirit of Vengeance. The murder for which McCullough now stands under sentence of death was committed in the livery stable of William Cross, whose livery is on Bathurst street, three doors west of King. The livery stable and yard run south, and reaches right to the back of the house where McCullough was ‘in hiding. For two weeks William Cross, whose evidence secured the convicâ€" tion of the murderer, worked in the stable and out in the yard, almost diâ€" rectly under the window of the man trial at which Cross was the main crown witness. Had McCullough fos tered any spirit of revenge against Cross he would have had ample opâ€" portunity for securing vengeance. At times Cross worked alone, up until one and two o‘clock in the morning, under McCullough‘s window. According to Mrs. Kinsella, McCulâ€" lough told her last week that he was going to buy a bicycle. When he came in with it last Friday night he honked the horn and exhibited it to everyone in the house. He told her it cost $55, and one of the young laâ€" dies in the house was informed that he had paid $43 for it. When Mrs. Carpenter, of near Godâ€" erich, was driving from town on her way home Saturday, at the top of the Saltford hill the horse became frightâ€" ened and ran to the bottom of the hill, upsetting the buggy and throwâ€" ing Mrs. Carpenter into a wire fence. One of her ears was almost severed. Medical .attention was soon on the scene, and Mrs. Carpenter was reâ€" moved to a hospital, where she is in a serious condition. o WOMAN SERIOUSLY HURT. 137 t
