Murder.-A most atrocious murder was com.
mitted at the old Back Creek Mills, on Tues
day night, the 2Sth ult., between 10 ando /
o'clock. The maine of the murdered man was
Alexander Russom, and the parties perpetra-
ting the murder were George Harris, who
kept, without u license, one of the lowest and
most infamous groggeries in Cecil county, at
the place where the murder was committed,
and the notorious Ben Thompson, alias Ben
Bolt" who was tried at Elkton, few years
ago, for the murder of his step-tather, but was
unfortunately acquitted. The facts in relation
to the murder, as near as we can gather them,
are these: RuSsom, the murdered man, was
in the house Of John Lucas, on the opposite
side Of the road from Harris grOggery, when
Harris went over and told Russom to come out,
which he did. When Rulsom came out, Har-
ris abused him. RussOin replied in the same
manner. FROM this an alteration commenced.
The fash of pistol was seen, supposed 10 have
been fired by RuSsom, who immediately ran,
pursued by Harris, who fred three shots after
him. After retreating about one hundred and
fifty yards, RussOm was overtaken by Harris
and Bolt, when the former commenced beating
him with his fists while Bolt stabbed husSom
to the heart, who fell and expired instantly.
Bolt and Harris were both sober, and the mur'
der appears to have been premeditated. After M
consultation with friends, Harris and Boit
went to Chesapeake City and gave themselves %
up to Justice Chris6eld, who committed the
parties to Jail. The Cecil Wing says that I'M
mediatelv after the murder, Bolt said exultlng-
|lv. az have cooked his goose. and sold my
self to the devil :: " while Harris declared if he
was not dead, he would finish him in the morn
ing.
