FOUND DEAD With
HIS NECK BROKEN
Believed That Americus
Negro Has Been FOuIIy
Dealt With Here
THE KILLING IS A MYSTERY
Body Was Found Out Near the cy
press Mills Early Yesterday Morn
ing by Small Negro Boy
Inquest Held.

A well dressed negro man, probably
about 40 years of age, and who is sup.
posed to be Allen Burnett, from Amer.
ieus was found dead in a small creel,
chort distance from the Altamaha
cypress mills yesterday morning, early
and from all appearances the unfortu.
nate negro has been foully dealt with.
The body was discovered by a smau
negro boy, who was passing the creek.
He quickly reported the ghastiy find to
the people al the mill Several of
them went TO the scene and the body
was towed up to the mill
Coroner Jennings was notified ard
summoned a jury and went out in the
afternoon TO hold an inquest. In the
examination it was discovered that
the negro's neck was broken. There
were no other marks Of violence about
his head or body
Just how the negro met his death is
mystery which win probably never
be solved, However, he is a stranger
in Brunswick and it is believed that
he was robbed and killed by negroes
of the city and then carried to this
secluded spot or probably he was in.
duced to drink too much and was then
caned out of the city and murdered,
The negro wore a practically new
suit of clothes. which were purchased
in Americas. Last night Chief Bur.
ney received a telegram from that
city asking about the negro who was
found dead and giving his name as
Allen Burnett, therefore this is in all
probability the man There were no
papers about his person by which his
identity could be learned.
It is thought thai Burnett came here
on the A. & B. excursion Monday.
Iust when he met death is not known
but he has probably been dead for a
few days as mis- body was somewhat
docomposed,
officers will work on tie case but
they have no clue whatever and will
hardly gather any information on the
murder.
