Malvern, Ark-Fred and Joe Nc
Elroy, two negroes, are under arrest,
charged with the assassination OF
Henry Spears, a merchant of Fenter,
Grant county, who was caEed to his
door about 8 O'Clock at night and shot
down and instantly killed. An effort
has been made to keep the arrest Of
the two negroes secret, for fear Of
violence, and it is known to few
people of Grant county
The two negroes lived in the COM
munity. About two years Mr.. Spears
and Joe McElroy had an affray and
it was generally known that Spears
was about TO bring suit against Fred
McElroy relative to the disposition
of some mortgaged property.
Great excitement prevails through
out the entire neighborhood, and the
officers in charge of the two negroes
are afraid of mob violence should
the fact that they are under arrest
be generally known.

was under age and unable to secure
the consent OF her parents, the mar
rage was not solemnized. Mr. Ray

he lived until last week, when he re

This time the license was obtained

Laird committed suicide after having
murdered Campbell. Laird took his
own life at the home his employer,
and the body of Campbell was found
the next day in the woods near by
