/ ARREST OF AN ESCAPED MURpEREa.-
On Saturday night Messrs. Knox and Tyler,
detective officers Of this city, succeeded in
arresting Lewis Kennedy, one of the muir.
derers of Mrs. Stewart and John Baker, OF
New Kent county, in October 1868. Ken
nedy wus confined with Gardner, his nc
complice, in the county Jail of New Kent,
but before the trial he made his escape.
Gardner was tried, convicted, and about a
montk ago suffered the extreme penalty OF
the law.
When arrested by the detectives Kennedy
was at work on the farm of n Dr.. Gram
mar, in GreensTillc county, near the North
Carolina line. 1t seems that after breaking
jail he and fellow-prisoner named Peter
Taylor went together to Greensville and got
work. A short time ago Taylor returned
to this neighborhood and going to work in
Henrico, was discovered and arrested, and
probably gave information which led to the
arrest of Kennedy. The latter neither de-
mics nor confesses his guilt. He was taken
10 New Kent for trial.
