and found il 10 be the dead bodies OF the
woman and child. Wilhou: stopping to
ind cut who the unforunates were he hnr.
red TO the court house and notified the
commemorative attorney and coroner of
what he had found. Commonweaith's At
torney Mason, Coroner Ntnde, and MIR.

examination they found that the bodies
were those of the unfortunste girl AID her
infant EMBODIED in her arms. The bodies
we're terribly mutiateG By dogs, hogs, and
other animals of the woods, bot evil
dences of foul play were seen, and the cor.
ouer at once summoned a jury OF il quest,
which viewed the remains on The ground,
and then repaired with them to the court
house to make an examination. A number

after sitting for two days, examining num-
her of witnesses, came to the following YER
dict late Yesterday evening: I'VE, the jury,
find that Anna R,wlett and infant came to
their death by the hand or hands of some
unknown person or persona" For some
time previous to the disappearance Of Miss
Rawlett q young man had been paying her
his undivided attention, and il WAS rumored
that she was to have been married very
shortly. Her friends claim that he took
advantage of the confidence placed
in him and deceived her, which is
the result of this awful tragedy.
There is considerable excitement in the
county over the terrible crime, and the Of
fcers Of the Commonwealth will exert every
possible means, leaving no stone unturned
to find the guilty one and place the crime
where it belongs. Detectives have been Or
dered to the scene of the tragedy, and will
as soon az they arrive be put on the track
of the murderer. Miss Rawlett was an &C.
compiished and attractive young lady, about
twenty-five years old, and was very popu-
lar. There have been no arrests yet, but
great excitement prevails, and if the crime
should be securely fastened on anyone
Judge Lynch" may pay visit to the quiet
aud peaceful old county of King George.
Miss Rawlett and her child left The house
of Mr.. Cowan, her stepfather, about seven
weeks ego, and had not since been seen.
She was an orphan, and aged about thirty
five years. By some persons it is thought
that mother and child were murdered, while
Others think that they wandered into the
ravine along the creek and we're drowned.
