Woman Who Opened Grave

Mrs. Ainanada I. Harrison, In con (can ine

body of George B. Saufley, an attorney,
Rlilch was found ahovo the ' grave in the
semetery early Wednesday.
Mrs, Harrison, who was apprehended in a '
rontote rai t of Adnlr county, nearly 100 miles
distant, to-day. readily admitted her coli
aeciion with the attempted grave robbery.
And declared that she had no accomplice,
til explanation of the wol'id story In which
jhf. says she was the .vole participant, Mia
Harrison aold that pn last Saturday morniup
kite oxpe'rlonccd a vision. In which she was
assured that tho attorney would rise from
the dead if the earth over him should be
/e moved and the body exposed to tho ajr.
Confiding her intentions to no one, Mr?-.
Harrison went about her plans for talcing
the body from its grave, Before leaving her
home she said she prayed fervently, then
stealing into the cemetery about midnight,
began her uncanny task. With hands unused
to a spade, she said tj'at she alone shoveled
the dirt from the grav"e, working feverlsi?l v
during tho dark hour?, confident that the
end of lior task meant the restoration to
lite for the man who had procured a di?
vorce for her. After she had removed all
of the earth from the casket and had lifted
it frotn the' grave ."In- wits unable to get

distance wane d bei that people were being
aroused and that dawn was near. Then she
abandoned her task, and having previously
requisitioned th<j services of the son of her
tenants; she so' off for Adair cotrfity.
?it was at the home of relative there that
she was found to-day by officers, accom?
panied by Rowan Sautlcy. brother of the
dead attorney. The warrant against Mrs.
Harrison charges her with desecrating a
Bravo. In default of ball Mrs. Harrison is.
being detained to-night in the Jailer's home.
Common belief Is that Mrs. Harrison's mind
Is unbalanced.
