NORFOLK, Va, September ca
shocking almost double-murder oc-
CURED on O'Keefe's farm, on the Indian
Poll bridge, few miles from the city,
this afternoon about o'clock. A negro
lsborer entered the stable Of James
Grant. a dairyman, and, watching his
opportunity, attacked him with an axe
and split open his skull and killed him
instantly. The murderer then hid the
body under a lot of hay and manure and
went to the house and informed Mr..
Grants housekeeper, n Mrs. Reed, that
Oldham Grant was lying drunk un-
der a hay-pile in the stable. He
then attacked her with the axe.
striking her on the head, and left
her, as he supposed dead. and robbed
the house of all the money he could find,
u gun and a pistol, and some clothing,
and made off to the country. The house
keeper revived sufficiently to crawl
out TO the road to give the alarm, and
soon after the body was found at the
stable. The police are now after the
negro, and think he is one formerly
driver for the deceased named Coleman,
who was discharged by him recently. A
lynching is probable if the negro Is ap.
pretended very soon. Justice A. W.
Hawks held an inquest. The deceased
was also keeper of the Catholic cemetery
and much respected in the neighbor-
hood.
