Revolving Murder.
From the Cairo Rnllt


We received, yesterday, the details
connected with a double murder which
took place on the line of the Iron Mountain
Railroad, about four weeks ago. The
murder was committed at that point on
the road nearest Cape Giradeau, and the
victims were Mr.. Kelly and his wife,
who recently lived in the Fourth Ward OF
this city 1t appears that Mrs Kelly and
neighboring woman named Mrs. FitZger-
aid, quarreled about table fork Words
ran high, and the women separated in a
fever of evaporation. The same evening
Fitzgerald provided himself with re.
-yolver, and repairing to the shanty OF
Kelly, shot him dead in his tracks at the
first fire. Mrs. Kelly thereupon seized a
stick of stove wood and dealt Fitzgerald a
blow on the shoulders. Kelly aimed at
her head, but the muzzle of the pistol was
knocked downward, and the ball took
effect in the woman's leg. Seeing that
she did not fall, and having no further
charges in his revolver, the fiend seized
the woman by the throat, and with the
butt OF his weapon dashed out her braine
He then Immediately fled the country
and is believed now to be in Memphis

from here went to Columbus, where

she was informed that the murderer bad
