MONTICELLO PEOPLE
 DEPLORE TRAGEDY

Monticello. July 10.-The people of Monticello have been keenly inter ested in the developments following the assassination of Albert NIcVav in Pine Bluff, because Mcvay is the brother of the man who killed Ben Hardy some months after he had been shot by Hardy, and the Hardys are prominent and popular people here Every member of the Hardy family was in Monticello at the time of the assassination of Mr. McVay in Pine Bluff, and the people here want that known, because they fear those not conversant with the facts might in the absence of evidence to show a motive for the assassination connect by implication some member of the Hardy family Or some friend of the family.
 The assassination is deplored bv the people of Monticello as much as by those of Pine Bluff.
