State, and Philadelphia Pa, where whole families
were butchered, occurred an early hour on Tues
day morning, in the vicinity of West Baden, Orange

From what we have been informed of the case it
appears that shortly after the breaking out of the
war, man named McCracken enlisted in the Union
ranks. short time after MS departure for the seat
of war; his house and barn burned to the ground
the fire having originated by the torch of incen-
diary.
On returning home, after having served his coun-
try faithfully, Mr.. McCracken learned from family
named W Woodward that man named WIN. Saunders
the incendiary, his own daughter having ac-
knowledged the fact. Saunders was arrested 1T til
instance of McCracken, but the case was finally
compromised, and the suit withdrawn. The county
officials, however, took hold of the matter, and the
grand jury having indicted Saunders, his trial was
set for this week.
Saunders, hearing that the Woodward family
would be the principal witnesses against him, swore
that they should never appear in the court room
alive. In fufment of these threats, he on Tuesday
morning last, short time before daylight, repaired
to the residence of Mr. Woodward and with a bowie
knife coolIy and deliberately murdered MIR. Wood
ward, his wife, and eldest daughter and old lady
the mother of Woodward. The bloody deed beconl-
ing known throughout the neighbprhood, the muir.
derer was pursued, and finally arrested. Tho mos
intense excitement prevails throughout the whole
Orange county, and strong threats Of lynching the
sassin have been made.
