Mother and Daughter Murdered

Cleveland, Oh. Mrs. Martha J. CALHOUN, aged 75 years, and her daughter, Mrs. VAUGHN, aged 46 years, were shot and killed by, as yet, an unknown party two miles east of Mantua Station, a village 40 miles southeast of this city. Will VAUGHN, a stepson of the younger woman, is locked up in Ravenna jail, charged with the crimes because of circumstances which are alleged to incriminate him. Mrs. VAUGHN was shot five times in the head, the sixth bullet of a revolver ending the life of her mother.
