From the Phi adclphia american Feb. 2,
On December 80 there appeared in
the Philadelphia Ledger notice OF the
death Of j. Fletcher Davis, setting
forth that he had died in RocheS er, n.
Y, on the third of that month. This
attracted the attention OF DR.. Robert II.
Davis, of north Eleventh stree, a we'll
known ply sician and brother OF the al
legged dead man, who visited the Led
ger office and found the death notice ell
dorseu "Mr.. Fletcher Davis " He at
once wrote to Rochester for particulars,
and was informed by the au horities OF
that place that no such death had OCCUR
cd, and nobody had been inferred in
any cemetery there under that name
The fact of DR.. Davis having made the
inquiry and the reply sent were pub,
lisned in Il Rochester paper and copy
by some means found lis way out to q
little Dakota town where j. Fletcher
Davis was temporarily stopping. He
saw the item, and at once started for
Philadelphia to clear up the mystery
and relieve he mind of his friends He
arrived in this city on Monday, and left
the matter of hunting up the party who
inserted the bogus death notice in the
DOCTORS hands, with instruC ions 70
bring the guilty party to justice when
found, az he belives the motive was to
appal emily prove his death and get pos
session Of his property. DIR. DAVIS
. aims to have unearthed portion Of
the scheme, and says that arrests prOba- |
bly, will soon follow which will bring
out an interesting and perhaps highly
sem ational story when the charge of
conspiracy is brought against the par.
ties. j. Fletcher Davis states that up
TO the time of seeing the notice he was
not aware that he had a wife. He left !
yesterday for Dakota, which he will
probably make his future home, but
will return if needed as witness
against the pacties when arrested.
The j. Fletcher Davis referred to IL
son of Nehemiah Davis, of New Castle
Hundred. The REPUBLICAN referred
to the .se before and alter Mr.. Davis
was heard from.
