the store houss near the spot, and
then secreted himself behind a
patch Of briers on the side of the
road. -
From this hiding place, without
being seen himself, be could easily
see Page from at least half a mile
OFT and as-he approached, uncon-
cious of danger, the murderer sprang
upon him and knocked him in the
head with the brick, broke-his skull
and beat his head into aielly.. The
murderer then dragged the body
around behind the brier patch to a
place of concealment and upon dis
covering lingering evidence of life,
ne put his hand into the pocket Of
the dying man, and got out his
knife and cut his throat from ear to
ear. While this crime and brutal
murder was being perpetrated, it
happened that a colored boy, who
was out looking for his oxen and
who was behind the store house,
about a hundred yards from the
dreadful scence, heard the blows and
jumping upon the front gallery, in
plain, open view, saw Wilson stand.
ing over Page, beating him with
the brick.
The boy Immediately ran for his
uncle, Andy Harris, who was only a
few hundred yards off. As soon as
Andy heard the boys statement, he
and the boy both ran to the place
Of the homicide. Finding Wilson
with the corpse Andy demanded Of
him "Why did you kill Mr.. Pagep
Wilson replied, 'Is he any of your
relation or any of your color p-
"Of course not but what did you
kill him for ?" "Well, don't talk
so loud and I'll tell you what I
killed him for. Page told me in
Town that he intended to send me
to the penitentiary, and I came here
and sent him to hi first" The
murderer then made Andy and the
boy promise that they would say
nothing about it. A few minutes
afterwards, on his way back, Andy
met the District Attorney, Mr.. E.
G. Hunter, and told him what had
occurred. Mr.. Hunter hurried on
to Colfax, two miles. distant, and
informed Sheriff Zeal, who at cnce
started with a posse in pursuit of
the criminal, and canght him near
the place of tue homicide, where he
had returned for the purpose Of get
ting the body to throw it into the
river.
After the arrest it was found that
the murderer had on the hat worn
by, MI. Page, and had left his own
near the body of his victim. Inthel
presence ola large crowd he made
a voluntary confession of the whole
affair. The murderer was safely
lodged in Jail, and with difficulty
the inturiated people were persua-
ded not to lynch him, but to permit
the law to take it's course. ~
The Grand Jury promptly pre-
sented bill of Indictment against
him the next. morning, and allow
ing time for the service of the We
nire, the trial was fixed for Monday.
On the day of the trial, the Court
room was filled with spectators,
among whom were many of the Ia
dies Of Colfax. Upon the faces of
the people, good Judge of human
nature could easily detect senti-
ment of fixed determination, to see
justice administered, and that with
out any unnecessary delay. After
the evidence had been introduced
which was clear, full and conclu-
sive. Able arguments were deliv-

THE Kelly Bros. are busily
engaged fitting up the establish

furnishing store. When completed
it will present a fine appearance,
and the interior finish will be sec

in Louisiana. Immediately upon
its completion the new firm, Miller,
Brady 4 Co., will take possession
and display the most complete stock
of tinware, iron, brass, woodenware,
and machinery, ever brought to this

made up their minds that no one
can call for an article in their line,
and not find it. 1t would be an
almost impossibihty to enumerate,
but suffice it to say they will keep
everything from a 5 cent tin cup

--ONE of the most horrible mur-
ders we have ever been called up
on to chronicle, was committed in
Grant Parish, on the 18th inst. in
the evening about shutdown.
Mr.. Frank Nj. Page, a white
man, was a leading witness for the
State, against Wilson Sanders, col
ored, who was charged with larceny.
Mr.. Page came to Colfax the day
OF the MURDER to appear before the
Grand Jury as q witness, and vii
son came to answer to his, bond.-
The negro was told that the testi-
mony of MIR. Page would send him
to the penitentiary. Mr.. Page left
Colfax to go home, and. the muir

former was walking and, the latter

by his intended victim, went to his

fate awaiting him. r. .9
