Maysville, KY, Is dead.
D.
William lIolcome, a convict, was
instantly killed in the chair factory
Of the penitentiary yesterday fore
noon.
Holcome worked on the ground
floor, or the preparing rooms OF the
factory. The machinery was run
ming at full speed when a loosened
pulley wheel flew and fell, striking
IIolcome on the head tearing his
skull to pieces and resulting in his
death few minutes later. Hol-
come was sent here from fletcher
county nine years ago for man
slaughter. tie still had twelve
years to serve. He had prominent
connections in the mountain sec.
ton, and it is probable that his
body will be claimed before It can
be sent to the.potters' field.
Holcome's case was a noted one
in its day. He and his father
quarIelled with a ncighbor about
the division Of piece Of land, and
killed him. They came to the pris-
on together, and the father died
here.-Frankfort Capital.
