The dead man was Nat Stevens, Il
colored truck hand. who had been at
the dance and was thought to have
fled the ncighborhod, either for COM
picity in the shooting or an unwilling
ness to testify about ii. Stevens was
found in ii clump OF bushes near the
scene of the shooting with a bullet
through his heart. The body had lain
exposed to the sun for three days and
was in a bad state of decomposition.
From tho evidence given before JUS
tice X. y. Bunting. who held an in
quest yesterday, little doubt was left
that Stevens was shot by Boon.
There has been no trace of the muir
derer since he disappeared Saturday
night, and the mystery as to the cause
of the wholesale shooting remains as
deep as ever.
