day last, DR.. A. ]. Terril, of Henrico, made post
mortem examination of the dead body of Nathan
Burnett, who was murdered at Haw Swamp on
Wednesday night last. He found that the skull
was badly fractured in three four places and that
the cuts on the scalp which seemed to have been
made by sharp pointed instrument, were doubt
less produced by the hammer portion of Ratchet
or something of that kind, as the blows had faxed
the bones, and not punctured them, as dirk would
have done. A careful examination of the wounds
on and about the left ear, proves that those too
were caused by blunt instrument DR.. T. made q
careful search for the point of the dirk supposed
have been broken off against the skull bone, but
failed to discover It, He is of the opinion that
all the wounds ON the dead man were inflicted with
the same instrument and thinks they might readily
have been made with the Ratchet discovered in
George w. Johnson's bed, upon which were spots
of blood.
