Horrid work OF Robbers.

MoscuRE, N. c. July 6.-Edward
Finch, aged IS years, his sister, aged 50,
both white, and a negro boy about is
wears of age, were murdered near here
Tuesday night between midnight and day
break. The Threats Of all were cut. 1t
was evident that all had been knocked in
the head with an ax. 1t is reported that
several hundred dollars in money was
stolen from the house OF Mr.. Finch. 1t
is thought probable that the robbers be-
came %murderen to screen themselves from
detection. 1t is also reported that one Of
the murderer has been captured at his
home with his hands yet red with the
blood Of his victims. 1t is said that he
was in the house washing the blood from
his hands. Great excitement prevails in
this entire section among all classes Of
people, and earnest efforts are being made
to discover the murdercrs, Of whom there
are believed to be several. The scene Of
the murder is only about 4 mile from that
of the famous Sumter murder eighteen
months ago, and eight miles from Mon
cure.
