A MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR Some three
weeks ago "a Mr. Kennedy diving near
jamestown. in the eastern portion ~
Smi, County, aud about twenty mites
from this place, was robbed OF consid'
cradle amount of mpuey-ahout $1,000
The circumstances, with developments
which have since followed are related tn
us by persons living in that immediate
neighborhoud and who were eye wiincs'
scs of what is stated in relation to the
finding Of the body of the negro girl.
On certain night Mr and Mrs. kcnnc'
dy had gone to church, leaving their
dwelling in the charge ni a servant girl
They returned home and retired about ~
o'clock the ghl being present and IN
waiting on her mistress. The next
morning however, the negro who was
a sprigh,ly mulattol was missing with
a large amount Of clothing bcloar H% To
her mistress, even those she had worn
the nigh, previous. The money which
Mr. Kennedy kept in an iron safe. IN the
house. the KEY Of which he had msus-
pcctingly left at homc--was taken also,
No clue could bc obtained as 10 the
whereabouts OF the girl and the suppo-
sition was that she had made her escape
on. Of the ncighborhood perhaps being
persuaded by some white person On
Wednesday morning last, however, the
body of the girl was found III the woods
ahou, a mile from her masters house.
Though much mutilated by stock, 1t was
easily identified 10y some peculiar marks
upon her person, and 10y the clothing
which she had carried with her, and
which was torn and scattered about the
place An inquest was held, several
physicians attending, and the conclusion
arrived at was, that she had been killed
bv s,abbing in tie side or breast, and,
as we'll as could be determined, her
,hroa, was cut also. The whole circum.
stance vet remains enshrouded in a mys-
terry No money was found, and the rea.
sonable suppositlon is tina, the glrl was
induced to purloin the money aud cloth

persons. with the promise to carry her to
a free state and that upon meeting at
this place, by previous arrangement. the
,reacherous villains rid themselves OF
her by numbering her, and have taken
the money aud fled the country.
