A committee was appointed, at a public meeting held at Batavia, to endeavor to ferret out the perpetrators of the outrage. They found evidences of the existence of what they believed to be Stone idol at Copan, 13 feet in height. an extended conspiracy, with many agents and powerful motives. Similar meetings were hell elsewhere. Public excitement became very great and wide-spread; and a strong feeling soon pervaded the public mind that the masonic institution was responsible for the crime.
