The dead body of Miss Lotiie Mat
thews, the l8-years-old daughter of w.
Frank Matthews, president of the Lynch
burg Grocery Company and a well-known
citizen. was found early yesterday morn
ing in Riyermont Park, three miles
from Lynchburg, with a wound in the
right temple, which had been made by
a S2-caliber bullet. The pistol, which
sne purchased at local store Tuesday
afternoon, was found at her side with
all five cartridges fired.
The young lady WAS discovered by
her sister, who, with two friend, were
searching for her. Miss Lottie had been
missing from her home since late Tues
day afternoon. Her sister and the
friend, with her were the first to dis
cover the body They found it In a
deep ravine ia remote part OF the park.
On the face of it the case seems to be
suicide, but no evidence has been
adduced yet to show any cause Tor
self destruction 1t was testified that
she had said she intended to kill him
self.
The young lady was strikingly hand
some girl and was very popular, with a
large circle Of friends.
The discovery of the remains caused a
sensation in the city. Some persons
suspect foul play and do not believe that
so beauiful and popular girl would
take her own life.
