Burlington, and Kit Carson county,
Colorado, have had quite an excitement
over an important murder case which has
been on trial during the past two weeks.
The facts of the case are as follows: The
murder is that of an aged man named
Henry Hatch, who resided on claim
near Flagler. Colo, on April 9th. and
was supposed to have been killed by his
nephew. wealthy and influential Bos-
tonian by the name of G. ". Hatch. who
for period of some years had been at
tending to the wants of his aged and
helpless uncle. Young Hatch had been
on visit to his uncle at Flagler on April
9th, and hired a man to drive him to the
country on the pretence of locating on
some land. and when within half mile
of his uncle's house. dismissed the wagon
and driver with the remark that he would
walk back to town, and the last seen of
him that night he was going in the direc-
ton of Henry Hatch's house, and the
next morning was noticed in Flagler,
and took the train to Burlington, then &c
to Denver and two days later returned
to the east. The dead body Of the aged
Henry Hatch was found on Sunday eve
ming. the day after young Hatch left
Flagler. The accused is agent Of the
Travellers Insurance Co.. and of high re-
pute in all the eastern states and cities.
The motive of killing assigned to the de-
PENDANT is that of q life insurance OF
81 900. which had shortly before been is
sued the old gentleman by his nephew.
Throughout the evidence appeared quite
and in favor Of defendant.
and yet the accused acted very strangely
during the whole trial. No motive for
crime being proven, the man was acquit-
ted. However, new evidence b devei-
Dping. contradictory to defendants evi-
ience, and al means possible are beng
taken 70 ferret out the mystery.
