FARMyIl1H, VA. March 10.-The people
OF Farmvillc and its vicinity We're stirred
this morning at very early hour a. they
have not been bcIOre tor many years 0t
tlc r.port that Ny Samuel Il. MoottOn,
who resides four miles in Il southeastern
direction from the town, was missing nom
his home. and few hours atterward when
IN was learned that the mule upon which
he rode to church in F0rmyille last night
had been found tied 10 a bush near a
stream of water between here and his
farm, and that his hat and gloves aud some
papers were found near by, the greatest
excitement prevailed, and number OF
mounted men at once repaired 10 the
scene, and thence q most dllFent
search was instituted and after the
woods and neighborhood had been
secured by the army of town and country
friends. the disappearance OF the man was
q more bHclOudcd mystery than before.
The friends of MIR. WoOtton soon disabuscd
their minds of the theory of suicide 10y
drowning when upon the examination OF
the stream by which the mule was tied no
hole was discovered deep enough for
the commission Of such al act. AIR. Woot-
ton WAS in town on last Saturday. and IN
addition TO making several purchases PAID
several bills, and, as am informed. Dor
Towed q sum OF money from Trend. lie
was next seen III town at the Bap-
tist church last night. and is reported
as having Left the lvery-stables of
4. 4. Cox lttle after o'clock
for his home and since then has not
been seen by anybody who was sure Of hls
identity. although two negroes state that
on their way from church last night they
met man in the road walking. III the d.
rection of tarmyille, who, on reflection to-
day, they would say bore the appearance
of the missing man. They say the man
they met wore light pants and dark coat
and that he was walking hurriedly. Mr..
NXootton wore at church last night clothes
bonring their description. Mr.. Nootton
some wears ago dealt extensively III " III
tures,h and an occasional profit from such
ventures stimulated and encouraged the
sturdy, successful farmer TO make heavier
investments. continuing in which until,
alas, crash came and away went his
farm and dwelling under mortgage,
since which tune, to recover his lost Tor
tunes, he has had an uphill struggle, ana
although he was upon one OF the best
tracts Of land, and was an expert In the
cultivation Of all the products of Its SOIL.
especially that OF tobacco, he has renamed
under the burden of heavy debts varied
and conflicting are the theories advanced
by those who have visited his home to-day
a. 10 his disappearance. the most awful one
of which is that he WIS w2ylaid ana muir
dured at some point away from where his
mule was found, and that the animal was
taken TO the creek and there tied to give
the suspicion OF suicide.

was entered in the case Of Frank Dickson,
who was accused Of misplaciu, the switch

ters Ferry. opposite this city. on the night
Of FRIDAY, October rs, 1858. which resulted
in the destruction of a passenger tram 90
iue east and the horrible deaths Of Con

later at Roanoke. Va. and was tried
before the Circuit Court here at tho
spring term. 1899. The jury disagreed and
Dickson was remanded 20 jail. but was ad-
mitted to bail few months ago, as the
