Special to the Commercial Gazette.
ABBEvILLE, S. C., October co.
The arrest Of Thomas Hughes in
Georgia developed a tragedy Of two
years ago. Near this place, in 1873
lived an old man named Mosely, whe
was quite wealthy. That year he mar.
ried Miss Ida Mosely, a third cousin
fifteen years old. Not long after the
wedding Mosely ascertained that hi;
bride loved his wealth more than him
The result was quarrels without mum.
Der. In December, 1879, Mosely and
his young wife, who was really quite I
child, had their last quarrel. During
its progress he informed her that be
was going to make his will, and thai
she would not be named in it. The
next day ai,er the quarrel Mosely
went to Abbeville, ana had a lawyer
draw up q will, promising to sign i
the next time he came to town, Thal
night he told his wife what he hA(
done. The next day he stayed al
home. That night about cl0cA
some one called him to the door anG
shot him dead. The murder created
great deal Of excitement, and thu
excitement was increased by the grea
mystery, Mrs Mosely diverted suS
pioion, if there was any pointing to-
ward her, BY offering a big reward To-
the murderer, butt did not lead to hi
capture. The will not being com
pleted, the widow received the larges
share Of the estate, and all wen
smoothly until few weeks ago, wher
she made a statement in Court, durinl
the winding up Of the estate, which
aroused suspicion. The case wa
worked and the men we're arrested
and put in Jail in Abbeville. One o
them gave the officer 4 pointer in tn
case, by which Hughes was located il
Georgia, 1t now develops that tn
widow hired the three men to do tn
killing.
