Especial telegram to the Dispstch.l ]

CHARLESTON, ". Va, April Is. John
Will, a substantial farmer, who lives on
Barn creek of Elk river, about twenty
five miles from this city, and who is well
known TO many OF our citizens, came to
town yesterday aud brought news Of a
most horrible murder. A man whose name
he was unable to learn, who lived in
Calhoun county, about forty miles from
Charleston, had been away with small
drove of cattle. which he had disposed
of, and was returning home on Wednes-
day, but, being oyertaken by night, he
stopped at the house of neighbor.
Something weighed heavily on his
mind, and, although he could not explain
the reason, he decided to go on andresch
his home, fearing something had gone
wrong. A peddler who was stopping at
the house offered TO accompany him,
and they both started together. They
finally reached the house, and seeing a
light in the window approached carefully
and looked in. The sight almost froze
their blood with horror. Lying on the
floor. weltering in their blood. lay the
wife and three children Of the farmer,
cold in death, and four strange men
were sitting and standing in the room.
The peddler's presence OF mind did not
desert him, and drawing his revolver he
told his companion TO make q noise at
the back door and hold it shut while
he stood guard at the front.
This WAS done, and the men
inside the room made rush for the
front door. and were shot by the p!ucky
little peddler as fast as they came, three
being killed. and the fourth severely
wounded. The story sounds very much
like a sensational romance, but seems TO
be credited by Mr.. Hill and his neigh
bors The distance and difficulty Of
communicating with that point renders
it impossible TO either corroborate or
disproye the story.
