Working on Clues and Putting Facts
and Fragments of Facts Together in
Order to Work Out That Which
Seemed a Mystery al Fascinated
will Be Frobed to Bottom.
With a bullet hole through the tip
of his left collar-bone, J. B. Bissett, a
young white man Of this city, was
found dead on the side Of the road
leading past the Soldiers Home, M
mile and a half east of the city limits,
last night shortly before IL o'clock.
He was only half clothed, his outer
garments lying in the bushes nea
him, While with them were the
clothes of a woman. The body was
brought to a local undertaking estab-
lishment, accompanied by Coroner
Charles A Separk. The clothes were
taken to the station house, but there
was nothing among them to lead to a
clue concerning the victims death.
When the police were notified, Off
GERS Wyatt and MCGEE, Capt. Jack
Beasley and Chief Stell went to the
scene, 'phoning Constable Byrum to
meet them at Gattis' store, opposite
the Soldiers Home. They found My
the man, the woman with him having
fled to parts unknown. At the hOu
of going to press the officers were
securing the woods around where the
murder was committed, seeking a clue
as to the guilty party. An effort was
being made to locate the m the
police believing that she would be
able to give some definite information
concerning the tragedy. If she is To-
Gated she will be held and made to
tell what she knows about it.
Mr.. Bissett was a native of Nash
county and was t~hirty-tWo years old.
He resided with his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. Henderson Bissett, 613 West
North street. A brother was seen last
night and stated that he did not go
10 any supper; that his mother told
him (the brother) to go uptown and
tell J. B. Bissett, if he saw him, to
come on to supper. but he was not
located and no news was received
about him until it became known last
might that he had been shot and
killed.
The body was examined this morn
ing about / o'clock, but an autopsy
will be held this morning at 9 o'clock.
There is a gun in possession Of the
authorities said to have been found
IN the vicinity of where the tragedy
occurred. Whether this was the one
used by the aSSassi or one belonging
TO Bissett was not fully determined
upon.
1t is also reported that-a card bear
ing a woman's name was found near
the scene. The bullet will be extract
eo and it will be seen whether it fits
the pistol in the possession Of the Of
fcers.
The inquest will probably be held
thls morning about $50 o'clock, fol-
lowing the autopsy. 1t was about
agreed upon last night, however, that
the wound was inflicted by the hand
or another person than Bissett him
sell. Just who that person was re-
mains to be seen and to that n the
ponce will exert every effort.
1t is evident that the assassin was
standing on the right side of his vic
I'm, as the bullet entered sideWise,
going down into the region of the
heart, severing a vital artery. There
VIII probably be more developments
today.
