The town of Walnut Cove is greatly
stirred up over a sensation which occurred
there Friday night. Wesley James, a
wealthy bachelor, who lived a life of a
r~ecluse, never associating or h wing deal
ings with his neighbors, died there very
suddenly. About one month age a
stranger, named Grogan, came to James
place. He purported to hail from Vir-
ginia. The stranger has suddenly turned
up with a will from Mr.. James, in which
he caves him all the property of the de.
ceased. GrOgan also holds deeds to all
the lands of James. Great excitement
prevails. Only S25 in money can be
found belonging to the deceased, hence
there is strong supposition that the old
man was murdered for his money. The
citizens of Walnut Cove are investigating
the case.

ped from its fastening and striking the
rear truck of the combination car, swung
it from the track. The passenger coach
following left the rails altogether and
complete revolution. Near the track
the derailment occurred, were a
man and his wife picking up
coal. The woman was crushed to
death and the man vas knocked sense
less. A relief train brought the injured
