\ gruesomc spectacle presented
itself to the people of this sectio a
this morning about two and a haij
miles from here on NJ. j. Olivier 8
place where the charred remains
OF an aged negress, Eliza Dillon,
about 65 years of age, and her son.
joe junius, age -, were discovered
In the ruins of a house that burned
about midnight. The cause of the
fire is not known. Dr.. j. W. X.
Shaw, as Coroner, took an old ne
gro into custody, who lived this
last Spring with the old woman.
4. f. b.
The old negro, mentioned by our
correspondent, was brought to
town and lodged in the parish iail
to await examination.
The two bodies were so COM
pletely incinerated that not even
the professional training of Dr..
Shaw would permit OF his ventur-
ing an opinion as to the sex of
either. Yet, the old dar<ey did not
hesitate to declare which was the
mother and which was the son.
Other evidences of his positive
knowledge Of things which were
mysteries to others led to his ar
rest.
Since his arrest, it is learned,
that suspicion pointed to him wears
ago as being the author of the
Breaux tragedy of that same neigh
hofhood more than decade ago.
Eut as there was no apparent mo-
tive those who suspected him
thought they were wrong and the
BreauX murder remained uasolved.
Murder may yet out.

ed a little ready money found Mr..
Miller in an easy humor to part with
all he wanted on easy terms, so at
the beginning Of the war almost eV-
cry prominent man doing planting
business in this county, was doing so
more or less on borrowed capital and
Mn. Miller found himself possessed
OF about $1,000, 600 worth of this
kind of paper; upon which he realiz-
ed a very small percent when the
end came and business was resumed
After the war he began to make cot
ton again with the negroes who re
manned on the place. He never tried
to refugee with his negroes like so
many did in this part OF the country,
but just bided his time til peace was
declared. His million dollars gone,
that same amount gone in the yaIne
Of slaves, he had saved his lands and
rehabiIitated his fortune somewhat.
He died in 1874, aged II. While he
was a clean man in his Life and bus
mess and no reproach here was ever
uttered against him, he was not per-
sonalIy a popular man, because he
was q money lender and nearly every
one eWed him money, who had any
credit. In these days a mans word
was as good as his bond, as no one
Il
arity was caused also by his irrasci-
BILE temper What could a man of
his temperament expect in his as
sOciatiOn with men of his time who
lived in this county and especially
on Lake Washington? A rOIlicking
gambling, rOysterOus set of young
fellows, who had few cares that could
not be attended to by a slave, or were
left to ourselves ON the plantations
and whose main occupation was fish
ing and hunting, and drinking and
gambling. 1t is said that a man
coming to Princeton was initiated by
a funnel if he refused to drink and
be hail fellow we'll met with them
1t would arouse Mr.. Miller's chOIer
TO see a young man dash by him in
a new buggy drawn by a fine team
from Kentucky, for he could not help
recalling a loan, recently made to the
same young man.
OF course when it was discovered
that so trivial thing would per
turb him, he would be often treated
to such affronts, and meay personal
encounters MIR. Miller had ON just as
slight prOvocation With the lad
les he was always gallant and court
eOus, but he never married a second
time, and devoted his life to rearing
and educating his four daughters,
and to making money. He and his
wife, Sarah Stem Jeffries Prince, had
many descendants, numbering way in
the sixties, and many of them are
now living in several Of the Southern
states

mess at New Orleans and again at
widow of Albert Galatin MetCalfe,
who married Dr. VIM. II. Hammett,
of whom l have previously written
in another paper. Mr.. Miller was
Kentuckian by birth. He came south
for his health but came nearly losing
his life twice by yellow fever, once
in New Orleans and again at Match

when he married the widow Prince;
but he continued to amass a fortune
with the added property of his wife,

was the second largest cotton planter
