Horrible Murder.

On Monday of last week man and woman
with several children, lit down in our town,
and pretty soon the woman circulated around
town with paper, begging, while the man
(~ho carried q gum vent to the saloons. to
sciieek" his fH Of of whiskey. The woman's
paper Represented that she was q Mrs. Kim
:, bsiI. sho, with her husband. had been captured
and re-captured by Indians, but had finally
made good their escape. and proceeded to
New York, TO join their friends; but there they
learned that their friends had removed to
Lawrence, Kansas, and they were begging
means to carry them there.
That afternoon, they left for Forest City. on
wagons that we're hauling whe at for Noyes L
Moore. There we're several young men along,
and also David MacGr egor, Scotchman, who
had been living here for some time past
Shortly after crossing the river, the stranger
and MacGresor, who were both drunk, got into
. quarrel. and stopped by the side Of the road,
making preparations to fight. The teams pass
ed on, and after going some distance, the re
port Of gun was heard; and not long after,
she stranger came running up. The company
inquired what he had done with Mac; to which
he replied, that they had made friends, and
Mac had stopped in at house along the road.
Days passed on, aud nothing was heard of
MacGrsgor; and it was feared be had met
with 4oul'play. On Sunday evening, We took
passage in the stage for Forest City, at which
time. three yonng men, Robert Ledbetter. wn
Boxley, and Comstock, went over to search for
the missing man. The stage driver remarked
chat be had encountered q very strong stencil
along the road, the day before, and the spot
indicated by him. corresponding with the one
at which the two men we're lefs quarrelling.
On approaching the spot. the stencil was still
there. and follow ing the direction, the body OF
MacGieyor was found near the road, amorg
some brush and small trees. He lay on his face,
and the back of his head was alive with mag
gots. He had evidently been shot near the
the road, and dragged back by the murderer
before life was extinct. The ground was torn,
as it the murdered man had grasped it "a he
was dragged along, and his fingers were still
graspng the ground. His woolleh shut was
pulled upward, as if by dragging. and there
vas a naked space between his stockings and
the bottom OF his trouser leg, the stockings
being stripped down, if person had grasp
ed him by the ankles in dragging him. HIS
hat had been placed by his sid,. He had un
doubtediy been shot in the breast, and fall
on his face. As we were on our way from
nome, to be gone the greater part Of the week.
We have not at this writing, heard the result
Of q close examination.
The murderer is villanous looking man.
not large in stature, wears peculiar cap. and
has long, black hair. which he wears in curls
The murder was doubtless cold blo1d in the
extreme. without any provocation other III an
