Excerpt from Trial of Samuel M. Andrews for the Murder of Cornelius Holmes He was early married, but has no children, and for some years his wife has been a confirmed invalid. Sev eral years ago he bought an uncompleted house, in which he finished room after room as he had means. He owned a small piece of land sufficient for a garden, connected with the house.
