DOUBLE MURDER COMMITTED
The Most Astrocious Crime In Annals
of Cleveland county-A Farmer

ity few days ago was the scene of
the most horrible crime in the annals
of Cleveland county. Mr.. and Mrs.
John Dixon were brutally and horrib-
ly murdered before daylight in their
new home, 10 miles above Shelby,
Just off the main road between Falls.
ton and Lawndale, and Hack Ross and
John Ross, two negro brothers, are
held as suspects of the crime.
A thousand or more people stood
about the desolate home as the coro-
ner's inquest proceeded, hoping that
evidence would place the gilt on
some party, so that they may avenge
the crime. The sentiment is strong
against Hack Ross and if the coro.
ners jury fixes the blame on him,
lynching may be expected. Sentiment
Is at fever heat, but the good citizens
are determined to be sure of their
move before they take the law in
their hands. They know Hack Ross
made a threat that there would be
somebody missing in the neighbor-
hood" if they took his meat, and Mr..
Dixon had a mortgage on Ross hog.
Ross could not pay for the hog and
brought it back to Mr., Dixon, but the
sentiment seems to be that this seem
ingly friendly feeling was feigned to
cover up the awful crime he had
planned. And, too, Ross lives about a
quarter of a mile from Mr.. Dixon's
