Murdered Near Eikton-The Coroner's
Jury Finds Two Men Guilty.
ELKToN, KY, Feb. 12-The dead
body of John Boyd, young farmer
living few miles north of this place,
in Todd county, was found near the
home of Mrs. Harris, widow. The
coroner's inquest adduced evidence as
follows:
John Boyd, the murdered man, was
seen in company with Dandy" Gibson,
known also as DANDY" Brewer, and
James Gibson, who is also known as
James Jones. They had been to Ed
Stokes distillery and all filed up on
whisky and then went to the home OF
the widow Harris.
The most important witness before
the coroner's jury was man named
Harris, son of the widow. He stated
that when the three men started to
leave the house they were all very
drunk, and when they had gone only a
short distance a quarrel ensued, which
resulted in Jones pelting Boyd with
| rocks.
After the fight the three returned to
the house for a short time and again
left together
This was the last seen of Boyd until
his dead body was found in the woods
by j. nj. Hightower while out rabbit
hunting.
The body was stiff, and had evident
ly been dead several hours. 1t was
taken to cabin near by. Over the
left eye was large black bruise that
had evidently been made by an instru-
ment that had smooth surface.
The nose had bled profusely. A sim
liar blow had been received on the
right cheek The absence of the two
young men, Brewer and Jones, was
conspicuous at the trial and in the
neighborhood, and it is generally be-
lieved they have fled the country.
ALI the evidence indicated their guilt,
and the jury rendered verdict recon-
mending their immediate arrest and
an investigation by the grand jury.

The woman had wound three
inches deep in her head. Beside her
