Chicago, Sept. 23.—Mrs. Letilia Greenhaulgh, 64 years old, 2900 Gabriel avenue, Zion City, a follower of a new religious sect, the Parham- ites, was tortured to death, her arms, legs and neck being fractured in a re- markable effort to cast out demons | go that she minght recover from rheumatism. This sensational mur- der of an aged woman, helpless to defend herself because her arms and lege were crooked and crippled by twenty years of suffering from rheu- matism, occurred on Wednesday. It did not become known until to-day when, after a dramatic midnight cor- oner’s inquest, the son of the woman in three hours of testimony told how his mother was tortured by the “cure” until she died. Five persons are now under ar- rest at Zion City. They are charged with manslaughter. The entire city is in an uproar. The horrible details of this case surpass any of the many tragedies hich have occurred in Chicago and lon City as a result of religious fanaticism since Dr. John Alexander in World’s Fair times.
