FoRT WAYNE, Nov. 27.-ISpecial. Tom
Davidson, a farm hand, is locked up in the
Jail at this city for the murder of his uncle and
namesake, and the evidence as so far adduced
BY Coroner Kessler and the prosecuting attor-
ney points with much clearness to the fellows
guilt. The elder Davidson was a cEildless
widower living alone on one Of his two farms
ten miles west of this city. One Sunday morn
Ing be was seen about the place at his usual
farm chores, but on Sunday night the accus-
toned light failed to shine out of his cabin
window, and Monday be was not
seen. Accordingly the neighbors, becOm-
ing alarmed, went to his house.
A key was found in the outside of the door,
but no person was found within. The clock
which he wound every morning had stopped.
The premises were searched and in the stable
Just behind the horses his dead body was
found. The ribs had been crushed IN, which
might have proven that death was caused by
the kicks of the horses had not there been also
discovered on the dead mans throat the marks
of the mnrderers fingers. Sheriff Vigo placed
the nephew under arrest and TO the coroner the
suspected man accounted for his presence on
Sunday afternoon with three conflicting stories,
all of which have been proven to be untrue. 1t
appears that the old man had some time ago
legally adopted his nephew and made him his
heir. but because of the young fellows worth
less character. he had atterward begun pro-
from his house. The desire to regain the title
10 the uncle's possessions furnishes the motive
in the prosecutors opinion for the commission
OF this dark crime.
