Rrcw,on.
\ very dcplorable affair has occurred
at l.e.sburg. Henry l'rewton, a young
man b~aring AN unenviahle reputation,
by the fraudulent use Of Mr., Grahams
name, obtained go from some party
with whom Mr.. Graham had dealings.
When the matter was made known to
MIR. Graham, he threatened to prosecute
Brpwton il he dill not at once make the
money good, and Irewton set DAY
when he would settle the matter, asking
Mr., Graham to he in town on that day,
being the nth inst. When approached,
I,rewton told Graham that if he would
walk out 10 a Mr.. Lees, who lives "A mile
AMI n half out from lecsburg, he would
get the money there and pay him. The
scheme was one to decoy Graham out OF
town, and il did not fail in It's purpose
| In n hammock something over mile
from I.oesburg, Graham's remains wert
found Friday afternoon, and was identI
fed by letters and his clothing. We re
frain from giving description Of The
condition Of the remains. Ills skull wa
badly broken, and the blows that cause,
his death must have been dealt will
great force aud inhumanity.
Brewton had no money when he lei
town with Graham, and on his return
in few hours paid another creditor WHIT
was giving him trouble. Suspicion rest
ed upon him Immediately after the bod.
Of Graham was found and he was wear
ing n watch bearing Graham's name
In fact, the evidence that Brewton wa
the murderer was very convincing, an
tho coroner's jury returned a verdict
that effect, and he is not only in Jail, bu
chained in the cell and under stron
guard.
Mr.. Graham was about "a years oil
and was very highly regarded ly all f'
his honesty and business integrity. TIL
case will 90 hard with Brewton, VII
