The. body, of a young woman was-found,in a field near that town, under gicoumstances which left no doubt that she.had been murdered.. The face was so mutilated that the, features could not be distinguished, At first. it;was supposed to be the body of a Miss Sarah Bloom, and. was identified as such by a sister of Miss Bloom, and ty. other, witnesses, . Spapision, was, imped ately fixed upon a man named William Jenkins as.the murderer, and he was taken.into custody, He was the person.last.scen with Miss Bloom, and on being arrested he had such a guilty look that every one set himy down ag the murderer. _ The body of the mprdered woman was found on Wednesday, and buried the Sunday, follow: ing. In the meantime, the case,had been jinvestigated by a Coroner’s, jury, and the, public excitement was comewhat appeased by the supposed recognition of the body, and efforts were atonce set on foot to fix the crime of the murder oy Jenkins. But on Sunday afternoon, to the astonishment’ of everybody; the original Sarah Bloom appeared in Newburg, alive ‘si well. She had hesrd of hey Gn death, andre: paired to. the place to see about, it, The man Jenkins was ‘at ‘once seb iat li p all cause ‘of sispicion againet'him having been’ removed by thé discoyery, that Miss Bloom was alive.) » The question, then came up, how could: Miss Bloom’s sister havevbeew so! deceived as to’ testify positively that "He "aeda body was that of hor sister?,, The result of 4 comparison of marks upon the bodies of the;two avomen; however; settled the’ question,’ Phe ‘peculiar marks ‘on the dead hody and those on ‘the body of Sarah Bloom .were identical’ in form,, position and number.. The body had a sear on the lefteeyeoc6°/ brow; Sarah Bloom had the same.) ‘The body had a scar on the middle joint of the middle finger of the left hand; Sarah, Bloom had) the same. The two middle toes of the left foot of the corpse were grown together, tiearly to the first joint; a similar peculiarity was found to exist in, Miss,Bloom. , The. toes of both feet in the corpse abd in those ef Miss Bloom: were: compressed, "a4 from wearing tight shoes.” A” mark, as from & ting which had been roughly, . drawn from the finger, was found on,thy;hand of the murdered. woman; 'Mis Bloom wore a dor+ nelian ring on the corresponding finger, These curious coincidences, very remarkable as far as regards ihigag peculiarities, scem to justify fhe couclusions which were arrived at. Miss Sarah Bloom, however, was not murdered, but was alive and quite amazed at the notoriety she had gained, and Mr. William Jenkins, instead of being a tenant of a prison, was set at liberty, free from all suspicion. ?
