SUDDEN DEATH OF A LADY-AIIREST OF
HEB HUSBAND ON THE OHABGE OF HAY?
ING POISONED . HEB.-One of those
strange and mysterious oases of domeetio
tragedy which startle and eouvulse with
painful excitement a quiet aud .virtuous
and law-loving community, occurred
near the town of Mouut Crawford, in
Rockingham County, Ya., on Thursday
of last week, the 23th of March. On that
day, about noon, Mrs. Delilah Cameron,
wife of John Cameron, au active, well
to-do, enterprising mau, died suddonly,
after having taken what she supposed
was a dose of salts, hut which, from tho
sudden and deadly effects produced, is
believed to have been impregnated with
a dose of strychnine. Immediately after
takiug tho dose, which was about a tea?
spoonful, aud which was taken for the
sick headache of which shu complained,
she was thrown into violent convulsions,'
which continued with but brief intermis?
sions for the space of about an hour and
a half, when death terminated her mor?
tal agony. Her husband was absout in
one of his fields, not far from his resi?
dence, when the dose was takeu. One
of Mrs. Cameron's children, a young
lady eighteen years of age, ran to some
of thu neighbors and announced tho
sudden and violent illness of her mother.
Collecting quickly, her neighbors found
hor in the terrible bodily agony spoken
of. Her husband being called from thc
field, suggested that cream should -be
given her, as that was good iu, such
cases. Mrs. Cameron continued rapidly
to grow worso, thu convulsions becoming
more und more violent, and her body
more rigid, until death ensued. In the
intervale which elapsed between the
paroxysms, she charged her husband
with having prepared the poison which
she bad taken, and which she feit as?
sured would soon terminutc in her death.
She said to him, "John, you have poi?
soned me; you said you would doit, and
you havo done it." She said he bod
prepared it tho Sunday before, when she
was at church.
On Saturday morning, tho coroner
proceeded to hold an inquest over the
body of tho deceased. The ovidenco
adduced before the jury elicited the
facts already stated, with tho additional
ouos that deceased und hor husband had
for somo time lived very unhappily to?
gether, frequently disputing angrily,
ami upon one or two occasious coming
to blows. The cause of these family
difficulties ivas said to bo tho visits of
Cameron to thc house of a disreputable
woman, or women, not far from his rc
sideucc.
After hearing thc evidence in thc case,
some of the witnesses summoned hoing
a number of tho most skillful and expe?
rienced physicians in tho County, thu
unanimous judgment of tho jury of iu
qnest was that thc deceased had been
poisoned, aud that the agent was strych?
nine.
The deceased waa buried ou Sunday,
aud her husband was arrested and con?
fined at his rcsidenco until Monday,
when he underwent examination. After
u patient hearing of the case, tho ac?
cused was seut to jail at Harrisonburg.
Cameron is about forty-two years of
age, and his wife was in tho forty-ninth
year of hor ngo. They havo two chil?
dren-a daughter about eighteen and a
son about fifteen years of agc. Au in?
terview between the father and the eon
nt the jail, on Tuesday, is represented to
