"a mulsito named Grandson Wilson
was brutally assassinated near his home,
in Hamilton township, few miles above
Rockford, by two n fians, about dusk on
Wednesday, 30th ultimo. Wilson had
been in the army some time. He was
engaged with certain white men ia the
robbery Of Gilbert's store, and the post
Office in JonesyiIle some two years ago.
He turned States evidence. The case
is still pending in the United States
District Court, we believe, and the whole
matter hung on Wilson's testimonY.l Iu

probably an accompliee in most Of the
robbesies, house burnings and counter

abouts BY the gang Of desperadoes that
have given Rockford an unenviable no
toriesy for years past. And the belief
now gaining ground that the testimony
OF colored witnesses will be taken in any
court at no dieant day afforded suEi
cient motive for the murder OF one IN
possession Of sach important secrets.
Interested parties are suspected, and
will probably fnd il hard to escape the
