FROM the Ohio State Journal we learn
the following: On Friday last some
boys found sack of Burglar tools near
Nelsonville. A further search revealed
the dead body of a man near camp fire.
A company of burglars had been en-

murder of one of their number was the
result of general quarrel among them

as a former citizen of the county.
