shotgun and instantly killed last
Sunday morning at Goodwin sta.

way, in this Parish, by E. A.
Stephenson, the proprietor Of the
hotel at that place. The deceased
is said to have been . very quie.
and inotfensive citizen and quite
popular in the community, where
he had resided for about two years.
We learn from q responsible par.
ty, who who was present or near
the scene of the homicide, that
there was no other provocstion for
the murder of Abels, which he
pronounced q cold blooded and
deliberate one, except the fact that
he had complained to the host of
latsness of the breakfast hours,
which ho was apprehensiye might
subject him to dismissal from the
Bentley saw mill, where he was
an employees.
Stephenson was arrested by
Deputy Sheriff Thomas, brought
to Alexandra, and incarcerated in
the parish prison.
Our informant states that the
excitement in the neigaborhood
was intense and that "lynching
bee" was only averted by the
prompt action of the Deputy Sher
if in transferring the prisoner to
the precincts OF the parish Jill.
