A vl3GhlA TRAGEDY.
Mother and Her son Murdered for Gain.

n
From the Charlottesville iva Chronicle. Now 81
We are called upon tins morning to chronicle one
OF the most cold-blooded and Gendlsh murders ever
perpetrated within the limits OF Albemarle county,
the victims OF when are d mother aud her son. We
give below such particulars al we can gather from
parties from the neighborhood OF the murder. 1t
seems thar on Monday night Mr.. Henry Salmon,
who hves near Stony Point in this county, went TO
Mr.. berrings, his neghbor, to a corn smoking,
and, returning very early yesterday morning. was
surprised at seeing the door Of the house standing
open. lie went snort distance to a neighbours and
with him he proceeded 10 the house and there
found sight which would make the hair OF the
hardes-nearted stand on end. There, in the front
room lay ns mother, a good Old lady OF about sixty
years dead IN a pool Of blood, and In the ad-
Joining room lying on the bed lay his
only brother breathing his last. The neVhbors
were hastily called together and q consul
tation held and the conclusion arrived at was that
some one. actuateo by a desIro for booty, entered
the house after the departure OF Henry Salmon
and killed Luther Salmon by striking him on the
head, apparently with hatchet, ana then going into
the other room, met Mrs. Salmon coming In from
the wood pile, WHITTIER she mad been for kindling,
and Killed her with the same Instrument. The lend5
then rausaeked the house, breaking open all tho
drawers and scattering things in every direction.
About TWENTY-FIVE dollars in money was taken from
MIR. salmou's pocket and a small quantity vi brandy
~ all tnat Is missed from the house 80 far.
