SHOT TO DEATH BY
UNKNOWN.
THE MOTIVE A MYSTERY
shot-Murder Was Done in Cold
Blood.
Gossips Say a Love Affair.

Edward Edgar. aged 80, was shot
and killed from amb1*h Wednesday
night on lonely road in New Haven
township, near Easton. His body was
found in the road next morning. Two
heavy charges from shotgun fired
from heavy covering of bushes at the
left side of the road killed him. One
load entered his bowels and one his
head. Either shot would have killed
him.
The motive for the supposed muir
der is mystery. Gossips hint at a
feud or q love affair.
Edgar left home in the evening TO
60 to Lorenzo Walworth's home. a
short distance south. At $3.50 he left
10 return home, carrying lighted IAN
tern on his arm. AS he passed ciump
of bushes two shots were fired from
shotgun, it is believed. Ncighbors
heard the shots, but paid no attention
TO them. Mrs. Watson, who lives close
TO the scene of the tragedy, heard the
shots and a mans cry. but did not
think Of a murder and paid no atten-
ton 10 the matter.
Indications are that Edgar stag

fell across the wagon road. The Ian
tern was still on his arm. Evidently
no rigs passed along the road all night,
for the body was not discovered until
this morning His mother noted his
absence and reported it to neighbors.
Charles Watson saw Edgar lying In
the road, but before going up TO the
body summoned RAY Jones. They re-
ported to Sheriff .Iarrad.
Edgar is said TO have been quiet,
inoffensive fellow. and no one ever
heard of him having trouble until to-
day.
That il is case OF murder there
seems TO be no doubt, Either shot
would have killed, and if he had COM
Initted suicide the shots would not
have been placed "A they were. The
ground about the bushes. where the
shots are supposed to have been fired
from, indicates that some one bad
