Lebanon, Kan., Sept. 17. - Mrs. Williamson was murdered at night and her 12-year-old daughter and her aged mother, Mrs. H.H. Payne, brutally beaten. The three had been accustomed to sleep in one bed. Mrs. Williamson's dead body was found outside the house in the morning and her mother and daughter in bed unconscious. All had been horribly wounded with a cultivator bar. Mrs. Williamson was suing for divorce from her husband, and a young man from Lebanon who wished to marry her, and whom she had refused repeatedly, is suspected of the murder. He has disappeared.
