Jesse Creel, slayer of Gannon. Ful ford at New Bern, on Christmas Eve night, may have intended to take to the woods in the severe weather and kill game for his sustenance after the crime, if it was premeditated, is the belief of some of the Craven county authorities over the frightful affair. Creel, white-haired, and Fulford, a young, muscular fellow, engaged in an affray on South Front street, and the older man stabbed the youth "at the junction of the neck and chest," as the coroner's verdict stated, severing the common cartoid artery on the left side. Creel says Fulford had Intruded In to his home in an intoxicated condl tion and refused to leave, and that when he attempted to eject him the young man handled him roughly. Lau ra Creel, the slayer's daughter, was with him when Creel met Fulford on the street later. When officers went to his home to arrest him, Creel's daughter declared he was not at home, but the police men located him in an outhouse. Creel shoved a loaded double-barrelled shot gun in their faces, but did not have the nerve to use it. A policeman shoved the weapon aside and took Creel into custody. Besides the gun Creel carried over his shoulder a bag filled with shells. Gannon Fulford was well known In New Bern, and had been here many times in recent years. lie was a man of remarkable physique. RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT FOR MR. WEIL.
