The reports of the affair which
came to town being SO complicated
and unreliable, in order to get at the
true facts. and do all parties equal
Justice, TINES reporter chartered a
conveyance Sunday morning, and in
company with S. C. Franklin, called
MISS ANNA NICEELL.
who we found at the residence of
her father. Capt. H. p. Nickel, in
Homer township. Miss Anna is a
very intelligent and charming young
lady, and while she deeply deplored
having her name appear in public
| priut in connection with such an un
| fortunate affair. she had no hesi
tanty in making full statement to
! the reporter as follows:
Il have known Mr.. L. E. Mann
| about two years; he has been to our
house frequently. He seemed anx
ious to pay me attention. His compa-
ny not being agreeable to me [ dis
couraged him. but he seemed to be
persistent and finally to get rid of
him, he was forbidden the house by
my father.
[ was spending last week visiting
at the residence of Mr.. Geo Graham,
neighbor, aud Friday evening about
5 O'Clock Mr.. Mann called to see me.
He was met at the door by Nj. Gra-
ham, who he requested to inform me
that be had message for me. I
told Mr.. G. I was afraid of Mann
and refused to see him. But Mr..
and Mrs. Graham insisted on my 60
ing into the parlor, and finally I
agreed to do SO, provided some of
the family would accompany me, and
Mrs. Dell Hite, daughter of Mr..
Graham, agreed to go with me-
When we entered the room I ad-
dressed Mr.. Mann, and asked him
what he wanted.
He said, Il expect to start west
shortly, and probably this will be
our last meeting. I have message
for you, but have left it with anoth-
er person who will deliver it to you
after I am..gone."
He did not remain in the room
long, and seemed to be morose and
not i'll very talkative mood. As
he left the room he turned and adj
dressing me said. II hope Miss Nick
ell you will be happy in the new
step you are about to take"
Isuspected his meaning and thank
ed him.
l was very much afraid of Mann,
and firmly believe he called at Mr..
Graham's to kill me.
MIR. Mann has repeatedly made
his threats that I should never marry
any other man and the fact
that he has often threatened nv
fathers life kept me constantly un-
easy.
The same evening he went to 1Ir.
f. Rayboune's and after changing
his linen, took the pistol which he
had at the school house. The pis
tol belonged to Mr.. Raybourne. and
was taken in the absence of the
family. He had heard from Mr..
Hensley that he would accompany
me to the concert that evening, and
when We arrived at the church
Mann was there.
After taking a seat I looked
arond and found that Mann had taken
a position Just behind US.
l looked around On two or three
occasions and found that MIR. Mann
was eyeing us closely. His look was
that Of demon and it sent chill
OF horror through me.
Before the concert was yet out 1
suggested to Mr.. Hensley that we
60 home to which he assented.
As We passed Mr.. Mann he fell in
behind and followed US. On the
outside he asked Mr.. Hensley if he
could cref 60 No An, L. 4.,= -

! it was some ten minutes before anv
! one went out to see what had be-
come of Mann.
/ After the excitement had some
wh 1t subsided Mr. Hensley and my
! self left for home.
| The above is Miss Anna Nickell's s
| statement in substance, and after
th mixing her kindly for the inter
view the reporter withdrew, and pro
! ceeded to the residence Of Mr.. Bar
ton for the purpose of gaining an
interview with Mr. Mann We az
rlved at the house about II o'clock
and found young Mann delirious
and not III a condition to make sat
isfactory statement. He had no rec
objection of the difficulty, and his
mind seemed to dwell upon the re-
cent campaign, and was also laboring
under the hallucination that he was
just getting over a spree.
Finding an interview with MIR.
Mann impossible, the reporter ap-
piled the pump to Mr. W. H. Craw-
ford, who had been at his bedside
for two days.
Mr.. Crawford said NTaun seemed
to be rational Saturday morning ii, d
III answer to questions which were
asked him in regard to the tragedy.
said:
When Hensley and Miss Anna
walked out CT the church. some
thing came over him and [ seemed
to get blind
[ fired at John and then turned
the pistol on myself. The first bul-
let passed through my clothing
across my breast. then placed the
muzzle againt my stomach aud the
pistol snapped. 1 then changed it to
my right ear, from there [ changed
it to my left breast and fired. The
bali entered about two inches above
the left nipple, struck rib aud pass
ed under the arm and lodged back
of the shoulder blade.
The bullet Was located Saturday
evening by Dr.. T. c. Boulware, of
this city, whopronounced the wound
not necessarily fatal.
Mann remarked to Will Crawford
the evening of the shooting that he
was a ruined man, and he did not
care what became of him. About
month ago he made the same state
ment to Miss May Crawford.
Mr.. w H. Crawford said it was
his opinion that Mann was out of
shape on love affairs, and had heard
him say Oh two occasions that John
would never get Miss Nickel.
MIR. Crawford said he would not
have been surprised to hear of there
being trouble between H P. Nickel
and Mann, but did not expect trou
BILE between Hensley and Mann.
When the reporter left Manu-
seemed to be resting easy.

er and farmer of that township,
departed for parts unknown about
a week ago leaving several gentle
men, who had allowed him the use
OF their names, and some who had
not allowed him this privilege, to
mourn his sudden departure And
worse than all he left one poor brok-
en-hearted widowed mother to
mourn the ruin and disgrace of her
daughter. He had, SO the story
goes, been very attentive to Miss
Mamie Fortner, pretty little girl,
l6 years OF age. and given out that
he intended to marry her, and had
even gone SO far as to ask the sane
ton of the mother. A short time
ago it was discovered that the girl
was In delicate condition, and Hen
derson brought her to Butler, and to-
gether they boarded the south bound
train. At Ovid, between here and
Rich Hill, he left the train, desert
ing the girl and leaving her adrift in
cold and heartless world, inexperi-
enced, withoutssmoney or friend on
earth to appeal to. The girl return
ed to Butler and stopped at the
house OF an acquaintance, but was
advised to move On when her condi-
ton was discovered She went from
here to Harrisonyilie and, rumor
says, she died there in boarding
house. The above being true 10
Punishment known to the law would
be too severe for such william. and
If this poor girl has a male relative
on earth, he should hunt this scoun- |
drei down and bring him to Justice. |
Before leaving Henderson gave Mrs. |
Griffith. the Lad y with whom he Was |
boarding, a checa Oh the Adrian |
bank Tie check was clshed at the |
Farmers Bank Of this city, after be- |
ing endorsed by Mrs. Griffith, but |
the check was returned, be having |
no money IN the Adrian bank.
