A strange and horrible murder has
been perpetrated in the parish of st.
Mary, ON the north side of the island.
IA colored boy, five years old, was Sit
ting on the doorstep Of his fathers
house. A negro named William Tay-
lor, who. lived in a hut in the yard,
called the boy to him. The child, who
had dislike to the man.. refused to
go. In the house asleep was negro
named Codeah. .TayIor called out: ss
aiCodeahie Codeahi! icateh this boy
for me, and bring himste me.Ypygd y3Ht
Codeah arose from the bed and
chased the, frightened child around
the house, finally catching him. and
carrying him in his arms to Taylor 81
Taylor clutched the boysand cried out
savagely 39js5Y ii fu9bis9r'I 9hf doiag5
sn"",NowI have the little brute. See,
see what, I'll do with him."
He entered his hut and came out
With a sharp knife in his hand 9He
deliberately stretched the screaming
child upon his knees. and drew the
knife across his abdomen. He then
held up the boy by the neck with his
intestines protruding, and slas1Ied
him across the eyes and face. d He
next threw him down and nutilated
him againno Holding the child alofts
he cried out to a woman in the yard;
See, granny, I've killed lied the tlhfssli liiIrrie iIr
brute" .,f, .{-.-.l...., ',..-.'
2 Horrible to relate, he glued his lips
to the gaping wounds in the chiFd's
thighs, ando sucked the blood lq The
poor boy lived for three hours after,
in horrible torture. He was perfectly
sensible and able to tell the fellowing
story: "'I was sittingo at myo doolf
mouth, playing. .odUncle EaylorFcalled
me. 1 would not, go: Uncle, Godeah
was in the room, sleeping Taylor
called out, FCodeah, come catch this
boy-giye me- Codeah caught shle
and put me into 'Fayior's hand, and
went back into. the room" ."'''s 'si''.sd
IA jury have returned "a verdict F,of
wilifuI murder against William Tay-
lor and Codeah. h.-LNe,o York Su3s.l lenq
