COId-bIOOded Murder.

The New Albany Ind Ledger has
learned OF the murder OF Mr. D. Ed
Smith, who for more than a year was
an officer in Hospital No g, in New
Albany, and was a young man Of more
than ordinary moral rectitude ard up
rightness. He had been residing in
Ohio since the war Some few weeks
ago be left his home 10 visit some rel
atives IN Pennsylvania. and during his
stay among them was requested BY his
sister TO call upon young lady friend
OF hers, as he returned home, who re-
sided at Gallon, Ohio. The Young
lady in question had. few weeks pre-
vious to Smiths arrival, refused to re-
ceive the calls Of a young man in that
town who was deeply in love with and
anxious to marry her. This young
man took an oath that he would kill
any man who might visit the lady.
Young Smith arrived in the town.
and had called upon the young ladr.
in pursuance OF his sister request, du-
ring the afternoon, and left an engage
mcnt TO call again in the evening. By
some means the discarded lover learn
ed that Smith would call, and armed
himself with a revolver, and taking a
position square or two from the
young lady's residence, waited for
Smith to leave the house Smith re-
mained until about 9 O. clock, and then
left. When he reached the place where
the discarded lover was standing. the
desperate suddenly rushed upon him,
and shot him through the heart, xii
ling him instantly.
The murderer gave no one any in
timation of his intertion to commit the
deed, and young Smith was entirely
unsuspecting of danger until the fatal
shot was fired. The villain was ar
rested, and will doubtless suffer the ex-
treme penalty of the law for his crime.
Young Smith, during his residence in
New Albany, was member Of the
choir at Wesley Chapel; he was high
ly esteemed by all who knew him, and
had an unblemished character
