A waiter laden with ice cream and
cake foated into the CHIEF Office Thurs
day evening, accompanied by the COM
pliuents of Mr.. F. S. Leblanc, who took
that agreeable method of informing us
that he was celebrating the twenty
eighth anniversary of his birth. The
CHIEF unites with "Sam's" legion of
friends in expressing the hope that he
may live to enjoy very many occurrences
of the occasion and that each may be
more pleasant than its predecessor.
We were misinformed as to the name
of the colored man shot and killed on
Gamers plantation, in the parish of As

with the murder. 1t appears there was
no eyewitness to the crime, hut there is
q strong case of circumstantial evidence
against Graham, who endeavored to dis
arm suspicion by going himself to sum-
mon the Coroner to hold an inquest on
Randolph's body.
