DEATH OF DIR CHANCELLOR.
Former Physician of Alexandria
Passes Away in Washington
Last Night.

Doctor c. w. Chancellor died in
Washington at l0:45 o'clock last
NIGHT The deceased was SO years
old.
The death of Doctor Chancellor
brings to mind "reminiscences OF Alex
andria where he passed some OF his
early years. He began the practice
ne his profession shortly before the
breaking out of the civil war. and
when hostilities began he was sur
reon of the Alexandria Riflemen. He
left Alexandria with that command
MAY Cd. 1861, with Doctor NJ. NJ.
Lewis and Doctor Harold Snowden,
also practicing physicians in this
city at that time. and remained away
until the close of the conflict. Doc
tor Snowden was surgeon Of the
Old Dominion Riflemen and Doctor
Lewis subsequently became brigade
surgeon.
At the close of the war these three
physicians returned to their home.
Dr. Lewis was sought by his former
patients as well as by others who had
become residents Of Alexandria in
the meantime and he soon had an eH.
tensivc practice which he enjoyed un-
til his death in 1884. Doctor Snow
den did not resume the practice OF
his profession, but became one OF The
editors of the Gazette. then controlled
by his father, Edgar Snowden, and
Doctor Chancellor went to Memphis.
where he resumed the practice Of
medicine. This was drn'mg 1866 and
there was u business boom
in Memphis, and. as was the custom
in those days. Alexandrians who made
visits to on took up their residences
in other places, wrote letters to the
Gazette. The Doctors letters re-
fel1ed 10 The flush times in Mem
phis and number Of carpenters.
bricklayers. and others left AleSan-
dria for that city. Unfortunately
III Asiatic Icholera broke out and
some of the Aleyandrians died.
Doctor Chancellor subsequently re-
moved to Baltimore, where he soon
became one of the most prominent
practitioners of the Monumental
City. He at times wrote articles for
papers which contained valuable sug-
gestions concerning surgery. He
had of late resided in Washington.

KILLED HIS F.ATHER-IN.LAW.
Sam Taylor, Of Tazewell, Shoots
Hugh Tabor While at Work.

Richmond Jan. ii "::'rts of {
deliberate murder committed by
Samuel Taylor, in farewell county
has reached the Governors office. A
request is also made for the Cover.
nor to offer a reward for the arrest
of the murderer.
Tho victim was Hugh Tabor, !;
hard working man Of Tazewell. the
father in law Of Taylor. Absolutely
no cause is known for the murder
save that of the wanton meanness
Of the man who did the killing.
Several years ago Tabor is alleged
to have wronged one Of the daugh-
ters Of Taylor, afterwards marrying
her. Tabor was at work in his
blacksmith shop on the day of De-
cember Goth, engaged in shooting a
horse. Taylor carried 4 double
barreled shortgun Without saying
a word or giving the man chance to
defend himself Taylor is said to
have raised the gun and to have emp
tied both barrels into the body Of
Tabor The latter fell to the ground
dead.
Taylor then took his leave, and it
is believed that he has gone to the
West. The supervisors of the co,ul-
ty have offered 4 reward Of 500 for
the mans apprehension and the
Governor has added another 800 to
the same fund. According to the
letter received here. Taylor bears a
bad reputation in that county.
