Curious SUITS for Sandering the Fugitire
Crqtts.-There was another big breeze in
Court square on Saturday afternoon, caused by
the arrest of John Knights, the witness to the
identity of Crafts, upon writ for slander, the
declaration setting forth that Knights had stat
ed that Crafts had been guilty of the crime Of
larceny. The writ was made out by John c.
Park, and served by deputy sheriff Rugg, who
received bail in $4,000 from two sufficient
sureties, who promptly came forward to release
knights from the arrest. 1t was stated early
on Saturday that writs were out against the
agent Hughes and Knights, and that the sole
object in having them arrested was to get them
where they could be ''spotted'' by some of the
persons engaged in the measures for the pro-
lection of Crafts from seizure but as Knights
was passed out by a rear passage after having
given bail in Mr.. Ruggs's office, the watchers
did not get a sight of him.
In the writ against Hughes, there was some
mistake in the name, and Mr.. Rugg would not
take the responsibility of serving it bnt it was
afterwards amended, and in the course of the
evening, Hughes called at the office, and quiet
ly gave bail in the same manner that Knights
had done.-PoSt

Shocking Murder at Meredith
M Bridge. N, HI.

slip from the Democrat contains the fol'
lowing particulars of deed Of blood
II becomes our painful duty to announce
cold blooded murder that was PerPe'rated
Just out of the limits of our village, and with
in sight and hearing of many dweil'fg'hous-
es, some time last nigh (Oct. "a. The DO
DIV OF Edward l.. Davis, ~ years Of age,
whose parents reside in this village was
found in the river, just below The railroad
bridge. where il had evidently been thrown
after life had become extinct, or the person
insensible. On the bridge, near the middle
of the river, was found the coat of the de.
ceased. The collar was torn of, and hung
only by few threads, while the right sleeve
from the elbow TO the wrist, was covered
with blood, as was also the left skirt. The
lining of the right sleeve was covered with
thick, dark blood. Blood was found from
the bridge three or four rods along the rail-
road track TO pair OF hars, that opened into
a small patch of woods. About two or three
rods from the bars, within the field, and by
The side of the woods was found one spot OF
blood. 1t is supposed, from the quantity OF
blood that he must have been made insensi-
ble by blow some distance from this place,
and his coat taken off and wrapped round
tis head, while he was carrieu u tue otiuSe'
The deceased was a thick set person, about
five feet four or five inches in height, and
was employed on the railroad. Suspicion
of the murder falls strongly on MIR. Rufus
Flanders, with whose wife il is said the de-
ceased has been for some time carrying on
an illicit Intercourse. MIR. Flanders left his
wife and this village about week since, on
this account, but returned Yesterday morn
ing. He was present when the body was
taken ashore, but betrayed no symptoms Of
guilt. Yesterday he was heard to threaten
the deceased several times, and we learn
that he called at his boarding place and in
quired tor him about 10 O'Clock last evening.
Flanders was arrested before leaving the
scene Of death. This i. a most startling af-
fair 10 the citizens of our usually quiet vii
lage, and is certainly deed of darkness
equal, or nearly SO, to the Parker murder in
lS45.
