Murder in Cecil County.

The Elkton correspondent of the Viii
mington Morning Nei0s, under date Of
Wednesday, gives the details of horrible
murder that occurred this week near
Hart's Meeting House, in the Fifth dis
trict, known as Elk Neck, Cecil county,
Md. While John Footy, who keeps a
store at Hart's Meeting House, was out in
the Elk river endeavoring to catch a
drifting boat he discovered human foot
protruding above the surface of the water,
and, upon closer examination, discovered
that the body was almost perpendicular,
with the head firmly fastened to some
object at the bottom of the river. Mr..
Footy, after much difficulty, succeeded in
drawing the corpse into the boat and at
once recognized it as being the body of
Nicholas Velocker, resident of the vi
cinity. 1t was apparant that he had been
murdered. His head was terrible crushed
and the brains oozed from the broken
skull. The face, too, was shockingly
mutilated. The body was taken on shore
and a search for circumstantial evidence
begun. Velocker had occupied the same
dwelling with his tenant, William
Arrants, and here were found traces of
crime. There was blood upon the ground,
traces Of which were found from the
house to the river, distance of more
than a mile. It was evident that the
crime had been committed at the house
and the body drug thence to the river.
Here, it is supposed, the murderer put the
body Of his victim into boat, rowed out to
deep water, and, after fastening a heavy
anchor to the neck, threw it overheard.
Arrants, when informed of the discovery
of the corpse, became much excited but
denied all knowledgeof the crime. He is
a young man who has born quite a good
and he and his landlord were
on the best of terms. The
murdered man was about fifty years of
age. He was at times dissipated, and
when under the influence of liquor made
a display of his money. The section in
which the murder occurred bears rather
an unenviable reputation. Arrants was
arrested and committed to Elllton jail.

Charles E. Whitley, youngest son of
Col. William G. Whitley, Of Wilmington,
met with an accident on Monday by which
he lost an arm. He was coming from
Philadelphia to Wilmington on the cars
and was, it seems, resting his arm on the
sill of the car window, which was open.
When near Linwood, the train on which
he was passenger passed freight going
north, one car of which was loaded with
lumber. A board from this projecting
out too far, scraped along the passenger
car to the window by which Mr.. Whitley
was sitting and jammed his arm violently
against the side of the window, crushing
the bones from the wrist nearly to the
shoulder. On the arrival of the train at
Wilmington, the unfortunate young man
was taken to his home and The arm ampu-
tated. He is now doing well. It is
stated that a suit for damages will be
brought against the railroad company.
