Along the road there are several small

small thicket Of woods, where, after search,
her body was found. The young girl laid
On the ground perfectly motionless, and ex.
animation revealed the fact that she was
dead. Her clothing was in disordered
condition, and the impression was at once
given that she had been most foully i'll.

that she was choked to death by the villain
who waylayed her. Two negro men have
been arrested on suspicion, and third is
surrounded by large party of men in
