by means of incantations and spirits
works mysterious influences among his
superstitious fellows, was found dead
on the Garner place, near Tillatoba, "a
miles south of this city, one day last
week. He had been shot to death by
some unknown party, and considerable
mystery attached to the assassination.

Abe Jones, another negro, did the
killing. He was seen with a double
barreled shotgun in the vicinity of the
place were the body of Fox was found,
and he could give no satisfactory ac-
count of how he became possessed of
the gun, or what he had it for. The
inference is that Jones was put up to
the deed by others. Fox was a terror
to many of his colored neighbors, they
being deluded with an idea that he
possessed a mysterious power over
their destiny in various ways. Among
other foolish tricks he had a fashion
