On yesterday an inquest was held by Coroner
Erickson on the body of negro man named Ne
dom Collier, aged about % years. who came to his
death under the following circumstances: On Sat
urday night the deceased, accompanied by his
brother, went to grocery store in South Memphis
started to return home When they were near the
corner of Orleans and Beal streets, they were
ordered by three negro men to halt, and the
brother did so and was robbed of q quarter of a
dollar, all he had on his person. The deceased
disregarded the command and was at once shot
down by the miscreants, who deliberately riied
his pockets after he was helpless. DR.. John Bate
man attended the deceased until his death, and
made post norton examination this morning.
The verdict of the jury was g that the deceased
came to his death by a pistol shot, which entered
the body one inch to the left OF the spinal column,
and ranged down toward the umblical chord
and that the pistol was fired by party of negroes
whose names to the jury are unknown.-[Ibid.
From the Dyersburg Gasette. of the 7th inst,
we learn that Mr. Phillian Reeder, Of Lauderdale
county, was most brutaily murdered a few days
since. He was on a trip into the country with an
OK wagon, accompanied by two negroes in his
the other dashed out his brains with an AK. They
drove to a high bridge over a creek, where they
threw the team, wagon and corpse into the stream.
The oxen were killed and the wagon crushed to
atoms. They then gave the alarm, stating that
the unfortunate man had driven his wagon of the
bridge and killed himself. Those living near hur-
red to the horrible scene, and found blood on the
bridge and up the road from where the wagon had
come. The negroes were arrested and taken to
that the other had committed the murder, but
made him. confess to keep the secret. The negroes
are in irons, and will be tried next court. The
cause is unknown-[ IBID.
