We are indebted to Mr.. Gibbs for
the following particulars in regard to
the murder committed a few days ago,
two miles and a half from Greenfield.
1t appears that Mr.. Goodman, a Ger
man peddler from Buffalo, n. Y,
had taken a young German with him
to learn the business. Passing through
Centerville and on the township line
between New Haven and Greenfield,
Mr.. Goodman was struck on the head
with part of a tea rail and his head cut
open, and left upon the ground in a
senseless condition. His pockets wer-
found rihed. The young German
drove the team'to Greenfield, and re-
ported that two men came from the
woods, and had murdered the peddler,
and otherwise told a contradictory
story. He was arrested, and over
$500, 90 in money, and the keys of
the murdered man found on his per-
son A preliminary examination was
held at New Haven on Monday-and
as a matter of course, he was bound
over to court, and Committed to Jail to
await his trial. 1t is said a grocery
keeper at Centerville recognized the
iron as one missed from his store soon
after Mr.. Goodman had been there !
The victim died about three hours af-
