Another Murder.-A fatal ARRAY occurred
at the works on the Peedee bridge, now building
on that river, on the line of the Wilmington and
Manchester Railroad, on Monday Of last week.
1t seems that party of white laborers, engaged
in the construction of the bridge, became drunk,
and while in that condition, difficulty occurred
between them, and young man also employed
at work upon the bridge, by the name of John
Graham. What the origin of the difficulty was,
we were not informed, but words arose between
Graham and some of the workman, when one of
the latter seized water bucket, and struck him
over the head, knocking him down. Graham
arose and proceeded to his hut, and laid down,
and soon afterwards died. Two Of the men en-
gagged have fed, and it is said that they proceeded
to his cabin and struck him again, after he
had lain down. The person who struck him
with the water bucket, has been arrested, and
when our informant left, was awaiting the action
of the jury of inquest, whose verdict we have
not learned The deceased Mr.. Graham, is re-
ported as having beeng young man of good
moral habits, and has the reputation of having
been kind and dutiful SON Wilmington Herald.
