A section of timber land. approximate
~ 900 acres in extent, and located in
the town of Woodford, has been sold by
W. A. Wall of Bennington TO the Web
ster Lumber company of Springfield

of its kind contaminated in that section
in some time. No timber has been cut
from the tract of land in the past Is
years and the increase in growth has
been considerable. The rapid increase in
the price of lumber and timber land dur

to dispose of the property at price sew

IDENTIFIES
NEGRO SUSPECT
NJ. w. MoORECOCK SAYS HE IN.
LIEyES THOMAS rs NEGRO
WHO SHOT HIM.

Picked from crown of seven sus-
poets. Tom" Thomas was partly idcn-'
tilted yesterday afternoon by NJ. w.
Moorecock as the negro who shot ana
wounded him about three weeks aEo
in his store at Dumbarton. The seven
negroes who had been suspected Of
committing the crime and placed in the
Henrico county jail were lined UP boz
fore Mr.. Moorecock in the shert6s0
office.
After viewing them for short while
Mr.. Moorecock pointed to Thomas and
declared that while he was not sure At
his identity he believed that this was
his assailant. The shoes which were
found near the store ON the morning OF
the shooting fitted the negro. and the
police authorities believe that In this
man they have the right party. The
other negroes were returned to their
cells and will be held for a few days.
Mr.. Moorecock was shot about three
weeks ago just as he was about to
enter his place of business early one
Tuesday morning. When he refused to
give the Negro his money the latter
fred at him several times, three OF the
bullets taking effect. Hearing the
shooting Bernard, Mr.. Moorecocks son.
came TO his fathers rescue and wa1
also shot in the arm. Both are fast
recovering from their wounds.
