town is very much excited tonight over q
murder that has been committed, and up to

risd and sent for her brother, who started
out in search of his father but the search
awaited nothing.
This morning WV. Bradley and Charles

on Writings pond in boat were Mortified
to find the body of man lying on the bot
tom about Is feet from the shore. They
telephoned to Deputy Sheriff Brown, and
that officer, with an undertaken, was soon
on the spot.
The two men pulled the body out of the
water, and 1T proved TO be that OF the old
man McCsrty. As the body reached the
surface the officer was confronted with a
horrible spectacle. The old mans head had
been crushed in on the right side and
the ear was completely severed, while
a long ragged cut extended from the right
side of the face across the neck to the
breast, cutting through the jugular vein
An autopsy was made but the findings can
not be learned from any one that was pres
ent. The officers up to the present time
have found only one little clue.
