The lifeless body was discovered Saturday morning in the Masonic hall of that village by J. N. Burton and A. M.

In the ante-room of the hall, of which Wright was janitor, was found a lighted la,mp and near the body were two half-ounce bottles of carbolic acid and a tumbler from which the death mixture had been sipped.
