Mo stated few 3 at midnight masked j men entered the home of Henry t Hlackshire at Hrookville, Calhoun county, and shot him dead | in the presence of his wife and |son. Tonight Mrs Hlackshire is j in the Calhoun county jail. Her. neighbor, Robert McCloskey, is 1 in the same prison, and Louis Hendricks is in the Parkcrsburg jail all charged with complicity in the murder. The arrest of Mrs Hlackshire today was brought about by the statement of Hendricks. lie slid he was at Mr Closkey's home several days before the murder and heard Mrs Blackshire otter McCloskey money to kill her husband; and say that if he refused she would get some one else to do it. He-says he told Mrs Hlsckshiro after the murder what he heard and she offered to give him $100 as soon as she collected her husband's life insurance if he would leave town, lie and McCloskey left together the day following the murder and remained near Parkersburg till McCloskey returned to Brookvillc on Sunday to get his pay, and while there he w?. *t 'need in jail. During their absence Mrs Blackshire attempted to collect the insurance, which amounted to $1, 000. l'ublic sentiment was so' outraged over the reports of her complicity that she was threatened with lynching, but no attempt was made to wreak vengeance on her. McCloskey admitted being at the house at the time of the murder and also says Mrs Blackshire wanted her husband out of the way, but charges Hendricks with the murder.
