to work to care for her little flock, doing her
own chamber work and waiting on the table.
To relieve her financial distress she applied to
William Hubbard, well known in this city, and
to Dr. Mason, who accommodated her with
various loans.
According to agreement with her husband
suit was instituted for divorce. Hiler arrived at
Kingston some two weeks before the killing,
and appeared surprised that proceedings for
divorce had been instituted. He had been told
by some one that both the doctor and Mr.
Hubbard took too much interest in his affairs.
Those who knew Hiler predicted trouble, and
advised the doctor to leave town. Hiler and the
doctor had met at times before the killing,
which meetings, it is said, were not of an un-
pleasant nature. Hubbard and Mr. and Mrs.
Hiler had come to a business understanding
whereby Hubbard was to advance some more
money and take a mortgage on the property.
This was about the status of affairs up to the
time of the killing.
Dr. Mason was about 27 years of age, and
one of the most popular men in the county.
Mrs. Hiler is about the same age, a charming
little woman whose life has been above sus-
picion since her residence in Kingston.The trial was commenced in Hillsboro Fri-
day last, about one-half of Kingston being in
attendance.
