He. swore that lie took his wife, Mae Frances O’Reilly of Rochester, N. Y., to the Gunness farm to have her put out of the way. helped Lamphere bury her and assisted In disposing of six other bodies in the private cemetery of the Laporte murderess.Rfne O'Reilly is fttlssing. The police of Rochester tried ten days ago to find her and reported that she had dlsaiv,poured about the time Truelnon now says Lie took her to Laporte to have her killed so that he could marry again. Jewelry hearing the name of Mae F. O'UeiUy was fouud in the Guniioss ruins.Further, Truelson coufosses that he intended to *tnke hi» second wife, Sarah Arabella Vreeland, daughter of C. IV .Vreeland of Fast Ninety-second street. Fnnursie, N. Y., with whom he eloped in March last, to the Gunness farm. All that prevented him, he says, whs a letter from Mrs. Gunneas telling hliu that the sheriff was making inquiries about tlie disappearance of some of her v letups and that he should come alone.Xruelson’s story if untrue Is the more remarkable because the date of his imprisonment here took place a month before the horrors of the Gunuess farm iMHume known, and wrhile in jail he could not. have access to the many newspaper stories describing the details of the Luporte tragedies.
