William P. Gillespie of Columbus, Indiana, on his deathbed a few days ago,
made a confession that he and two others, names not given, killed a wealthy
stock trader named James Jamieson ten years ago and divided among them a
large sum of money found on his person. Jamieson's body was never found,
and this is the first clue to the manner of his death.
