Tbs story of the sappoesd ssarder
ef ilttmel Calrin, at lHnchsseiiK.Tt,
in 1812, and his reappearance tbere
eight yeara later, baa recently been
revivod in some of tbe papora. It
seems tbst, on tbe night of May 10,
1812, a yoang farmer named Rossvi
Calvin disappeared from Maneh.*-*-
ter, leaving a wife and one or two
children. Uis disappearance was
ottcrlv anaccoonlabte, and it con-
linued to be the theme of vagus
theorising until tho summer of 1819,
when a farmer chanced to plough
ap somo mouldy and half decayed
bone*, sraong wbicb was a large
pocket knife. Some one identified
this as tbe property uf the brother-
in-law of tbe missing msn, named
Stephen Boom. Tbis circumstance
recalled thc m*.story, aod suspicion
Juicklyaroso tbat Hoor triad mor-
ered Calvin. And Stephen Boom
and his brother Jesse wore arrested. Tlie trial camo ofl in November, and resulted in the conviction
of both, wbo were sentenced to be
banged. Jesse, the younger brother, actuated by tbe nope of executive clemency, confessed, after the
sentence, that ho and bis brother
killed Calvin, and buried him at the
place where the bones were foand.
Tbe expected clemency was not
withheld, and Jesse's sentence wsa
commuted to imprisonment for life,
while Stephen was warned to pro.
psro for death. Bat so unexpected
deliverance awaited him. On tbe
29:h of December Calvin returned
to Manchester, woll and hearty,
having been discovered by au advertisement. Instead of being raur.
dered, he bad simply wandered off
in n craxy freak—he wa* at beat bat
hslf a lunatic—and finding comfortable Quarter* in Xew Jersy. had
remained there tbroagh all tho
rears in which bit family bad been
busily mourning his death. Both
brothers were at once released, and
Jesse went to Ohio, where ho was
soon arrested for counterfeiting,
ami eventually died in the .Stale
prison.
