Terrible Tragedy at Newton
A most heart-rending affair occurred at Newton, Sussex county a few days since, which has brought the most poignant grief upon one family and sadness upon many. A young and interesting daughter of Mr. George L. Van Sickle, (a respectable farmer living a short distance from the village) who had been for some time receiving the attentions of a young man named George Drake, also respectably connected, was induced to take an evening ride with him, during which Drake administered to her a drug for the purpose of producing an abortion. After suffering such agony that her screams were heard wherever they passed along, she was at a late hour taken to her home by the villain, in a speechless condition, and died in a few hours, without regaining her power to speak to her grief-stricken friends. A Coroner's jury was summoned, the young man arrested, and the case is now under the most scrutinizing investigation.
