b. request, after which Mr. Hatch entered
h. own house and proceeded to his r1cm,
wheG he produced Smith d Wc=SDn pistol
. cailhrel and after cooking The weapon.
placed the muX2le to his head and pulled
the trigger. The bail struck hi forehead
agd, strange 10 say, did not ieaetrn;,.,
Ht tlatteEed and fell to the floor,
,yraking the cutter hone Of the fare
head bat in no wise damaging The inner.
The ra>h man, seeing his purpose h.;,t MS.
carried recocked the pistol and pointing il
at his light temple pulled the trigger, his
time with better success, the haf I.rGctra!-

Henry Watkins a well known old freed
man of this vicinity was missed since Satur-
day night. On Tuesday his body was found
in the river just below Cheatham's ford.
We learn he was intoxicated when he left
for home, and it is supposed he fell from
the bridge and was drowned.
