THE HORSFORTH MURDER. Mrs. Turner, who is undergoing twelve months' imprisonment at Wakefield as an accessory after the fact to the Horsforth murder, has written a farewell letter to her son, as follows:—" Wakefield Prison, August 13th, 1891.—My dear, dear Lu,- With deepest love and sympathy I write these few lines. I felt that under the distressing cir- cumstances an interview between us would be very painful, and would be more than I could very well stand, and I also thought this decision would be in unison with your own feelings as well as with my own. I fear you have been uneasy on my account; but let me beg of you not to let any thought about me be any trouble to your mind, for I pray and feel that I shall be supported all through. I have not seen your sister since the trial, but have heard they have removed, so if you have not seen or heard from them, if you write you had better address to White Swan Yard. I hope very much to have a few lines from you. Now, my dear boy, let me beg of you to seek forgiveness from on High for all sins, and may God in His great mercy give you comfort and support, and grant that we may yet meet again where sin and sorrow never come is the daily, hourly prayer of your ever loving and affectionate mother, A. TURNER.—To Walter Lewis Turner." Turner has made a written statement dealing with the part he took in the murder, which is to be given to the Press on the eve of his execution.
