Thereupon it whs on this recount that Harrison had the feeling against me. While I knew his liulm-n was contaminat ing the'' young men of Currituck county, Harrison lived more than five miles from me und he did me no harm iersonnlly. "After his threat there Is no room fordouOt that he killed my son; and, though I have followed many clues und investigated them thoroughly, I have never felt that I would find the li tter wus f.mii.l in the coat n-ket of little fellow alive. As long as Har rison lived I hoiicd that some day I would hear what dinjiositbn had heen made of him; hut now that he has killed himself I feel that the se cret Is buried. 'I had offered to waive all prose cution against Harrison If he would produce my little boy or tell where he could le found alive; but he was not the kind of a man to take advan tage of that opportunity and pre ferred to fight it out. The testimony was conclusive against him. The jK-opIe of Currituck thought so tt the time and their judgment is con firmed by the Supreme Court, which re fused Harrison a new trial after going the dead man shortly after he breathed bis last at St. Vincent's Hospital, a few hours after he had fired the fatal phot into his brain.

Beusley d. daring he did not belive a word of the letter left by Harrison, the tragedy will go down as one of the most horrible and ierhaps, unique that Norfolk has ever had hapjiened in its midst.
