SINGULAR INCIDENTAL German known as
Dutch Charlie was recently murdered in
Colorado county, Texas. AS the body was
surrounded by people, an lrshman proposed
that those present should successfully place
their hands upon the body Of the deceased,
believing. according TO an ancient supposition
used by Sir Walter Scott, in st. Valentines
Day, that whenever the murderer touched it
the wounds would commence bleeding anew.
The suggestion was acted upon, and, says a
correspondent of the Richmond Crexas) In
Guirer as soon as a man named Hildebrant
applied his hand the blood began to ilow.-
Iiidcbrant was arrested, and shortly after
ward committed suicide by hanging himself.
