Clothes and Left Him to Die-UnknowE.
But Supposed TO lie Bicyclist.

The section master on the Richmond and
petersburg railroad between this city and
Chester yesterday discovered ghastly evil
5ences Of what appears to be murder OF
.he most mysterious and atrocious charac-
ter.
While NJ work on that road FIVE miles
south Of this city yesterday afternoon he OF
some Of his hands found the body of good
looking but unknown young man lying near
the track IN a swampy thicket He was in
q nude state, and his h cad badly crushed as
II beaten in with repeated licks of a dull in
strument When fret found the dlscoverer
thought he saw faint signs Of life. but when
lie made known the terrible find and re-
turned with others lite was extinct.
HIS CONDITION.
His head besides being crushed was COW
cred with blood and bis entire outfit of
clothes including his hat and shoes were
missing.
4 thorough search was made in the
vicinity where the foul deed was committed,
but not a vestige OF clothing was found or
ANYTHING by which he could be identified.
The young man is described oy those who
saw the body as being apparently about
twenty-five years of age, FIVE feet two inches
high. fair skin. dark hair. clean shaven face,
AMI pleasing countenance.
Ills face was unmutiiated. but entirely
unknown TO those who saw him.

identity and that of the murderer
