DAMAR1scoTTA, April 30.-George Hodgkins,
OF Rockport, Mass, about fifty years of age,
and married, at WORK in Bristol, was found last
nightin that town with his head badly crushed,

condition. One report says he probably fell off
the bridge; another, he was assaulted by man
with whose wife he had been intimate. From
the nature of his njuri es the latter is the most
plausible, as it is repres ented that his body has
every appearance of having received terrible
pounding. He was unable to speak when found
and death is momentariy expected.
