Watkrt-ov/s, July 2'. On Monday the 17th inft. was difclcfed a feme, in this village, truly melatici.oliy and dfftfeffiaff. The fequel and extraordinary circumftdn- ces attending the pretended robery ©f Mr. V/hitttlfey, pay mailer of the militia, which took place fome weeks pad, while en his Way from Martinsburgh to Tienton, w&3 fortunately detected and fully exposed. This extraordinary occurrence from the period of its happening, occupied an tm- common degree of attention and vigilance, from the public and individuals, particularly from Meffrs. Keycs and Fairbanks, who were refpotifible as bail to government for the faithful dffcharge of duty by Whfttelfey. Many circumitances attending the trans¬ action had been dark and myfier-ous. Pub¬ lic jealousici had exilled to a high degree ag- aii'ft Whittelfey and his wife ; rumour was conltant and lotfd in her insinuations ; intim- attons however, appeared to be rather found¬ ed upon conjecture than lipon competent ev¬ idence. On the moaning of the 17th init. Messrs Kevesand Faii.bar.ks came to a de- tern;tnation to ted the correctnefs of public opinion by a ftraiag*:m ou . WhitieUey to extort a eonfrffion froflu him in c:»fe \\? had been guilty or embc z/.eHng the loll n»oney, At fome diilauce from the village and Whutclfev's hoafe, they had pTnaied a fmall vault in the ground filled with water. Whit* telfey was invited to the (pot by Mr. fair* hauks. under the pretence of tranfa&iriff fume imooitaiit hufturfn reating to their ex- itling dirEcukies. Un their arn'val Mr. Keyes opened the fabjeC^ by remarking to Whittelfey that he had become fatiifi.-d, that he or his wife, or boil; of them had been guil¬ ty x)f taking the money, or which he had de¬ clared he \%a* robbed, and that they then had it in their polT-'dton, and i( he would ac- ktu wledjJc the fic\, a^d inform of the place where it wa%deoofi.ee., they would, on their part agree t<- fcvceu him from public, odium as far asit wa^in their power ; and if he did not im..ed;.-.tcly make the required dis-clofur; jhev had c •'ifte U) n determint-fion to tafee n'*3 life, by placing l.i.n ;n the vault before him till he Wusddi j alio (hat the amount fur which thev wore re-ponlible to governr.'.er.t as 1)7*1, wotild tinUei ar rirr.unt?i-A.es be exacted, that it would biicg ruin anddiihefs upon them ; thdt fome miichievous incendia*? ry in the country had already coupled them with him, and that they weie implicated in the tranfaciion. Ir. cafe he (hould refuil to give them the information required, and tiny ihonld peifiil till hu life was taken, they mould confider themfelvesjuitiiWble, ^c in fome mealure iafe from natural cotifctiuen* ces. Whittelfey pevfilled in his Innocency— they then funk him in the water, and kept him under till the lait convulfive actions of life appeared ; then ^aiicd him, and ai'tef rc- ftoring hiru to fcn(ibiiity, he declared his in* nocency and a perfect Willingncf^ to die. They again renewed the proceLs with a fimilar remit On proceeding the fourth time, ar.d as they declared to him the laft, which mould put a final period to his exigence, bunging to his vijw in favorable language the horrible ft ate he muft foon appear in before his God, as being himfelf the caufe of th-.ir ram and horrible determination, and being guilty of the a& which they were endeavoring io extort confeluon. H?R conscience fmote him, his deter¬ mination tailed him, he confefted the fa£b ! He acknowledged that the money was then feocted in one of three places, eith¬ er under a hearth, in a fmall trunk at his Fairbanks rema/n:d «n the fpofc tvlth Whi't- telfey, while Mr- Xeycs proceeded to th« village, informed two friends, that He believ¬ ed, if they would accompany him to Whfttel- fcy's houfe he mould be able to find the loft money—they immediately repaired to the hcnr.e—on entering, they found no person but Mrs WhftteUey in a small chamber with its door locked. Mr. Keyes demanded ad¬ mittance—she observed that she was dressing and could not then comply with hia request ; ue then forced the door with his two friends—Mrs. Wlv'ttetsey remarked, that hts conduct was very rude—he observed luat lie had come ro rec* ive the money which Ihid hern lost—that Whittelsey had told him that it was in this house—She enquired where? he; husband was.—Mi. Keves demanded the immediate delivery of the money» obser* vmg, ir she gave it up ... ~ . _ _ peaceably the affair would be quietly settled, if not, he had men ready to strip and search the hoUs*. On the gentlemen's entering the chamber, Mrs Whittelaey threw herself upon the bed, which gave th?m reason to suspect thit the money was in or about it. Mr Keye3 proceeded to search the bed, and in it found near the whole amount, s°wcd or quilted into a pair of drawers, includcing the 8,000 dol¬ lars which Whittelsey supposed had been stolen from him at Schenccady, as above stated. Whittelsey wa> immediately liberate-^ and returned to his house—Some conversation ensued between h'm and hU wife c n what had tsanspired—Mrs. Wrmtebrv appeared much agitated, and sonn abented herself from the house r.ndiscovered to those irt it —• Considerable gWm \vac excited and search immediately r-ade—Some per ens, ucar the bank" of the B) u-k Riser, wluch passes a fhort distance from thf» villa^*1-, had seen a female T>afs toward* its ^ar.ks It wm sootl reduced to a certainty that she had plunged into the river.
