' 4 ' A FOUL MURDER. Sawny Bryan Shot Dead While on the Banks of Neuse River Saturday Night About Xine O'clock. C0R03ERS INQUEST BRI5G HELD TODAY NO VERDICT RENDERED UP TO THE TIME OF OUR GOING TO PRESS. We gather the following particulars of this sad affair from friends of the deceased and from different parties who were upon the scene of the mur der on yesterday : Lemuel Bryan, better known as Sawny Bryan, 1b the son of i S Bryan, was about 33 years of age and lived with his father in St Mary's Township about one and a miles from Auburn. Sawny Bryan left his home last Saturday morning, telling his father that he was coming to Raleigh, and that he and Bob Pul ley intended going fishing Saturday night. It was in evidence that Bryan came to the city and joined Bob Pul ley; they went to Pulley's about five miles east of the city and one mile from the river. Taking supper at Pulley's they, then about dark, start ed to the river for the purpose of fishing, . so Pulley says. They went down to the river about two hundred yards lelow where Crabtree creek enters the Neuse, to get a boat. Pul ley says the boat they expected'to find was gone. They (Bryan and Pul ley) started down the river, having gone only a short distance Pulley says he heard the report of a gun and saw the fire, it being quite dark. That at the time the gun was fired Bryan was several paces from Pulley. Bryan called to Pulley and said, 0 Bob, 1 am ruined. Pulley says he himself turned at once and ran for his life; that he ran over a bush and fel whereupon another shot- was fired from the same direction. Pulley con tinuing to run until he reached home. He says he at once informed Mr Jones of what had happened and asked Mr Jones to get some one else to go with them down there to look after Bryan; that Mr Jones went after Mr Ray, a near neighbor, asked him to go but Mr Ray declined saying he was afraid to go. No one, so far as known, visited the scene of the murder until yesterday moruing between seven and eight o'clock, when Pulley in company with several neighbors went down to the place and found Bryan cold and stiff. The facts show that he must have died instantly after he was shot. The authorities in this city were notified yesterday; the coroner could not be found con veniently, hence officer John Beasley was appointed special coroner; be went out and summoned six good and lawful men as a jury; they exam ined the body; also Dr James H Mo Eee. superintendent of health for Wake, after which the body was brought to the city yesterday even ing. The inquest is being held today uoroner neasiey nas naa quite a number of witnesses summoned Solicitor Argo with his usual ability conducting the investigation. Dr James H McKee was examined; he described the nature of the wound; that it was a most fatal shot, the bullet entering Bryan's right breast passing through the lower lobe of the right lung, throu h the heart and out to the skin On the left side; from whence it was taken by the doctor this morning; the bullet was shown the jury; the bullet was about a 88 calibre; the doctor said the bullet seemed to be one moulded by old fashioned moulds, it having a neck that had not been well trimmed. Sev eral witnesses were examined in re gard to the bullet. Mr GL Bunch who has been in hardware store of Messrs Brigg $ Spns for several years,, and has charge of the fire arms depart ment, loading shells, &C said he thought it was a 88 calibre. tii r nJ. - u..i -' alUUUB JJBW1B, .EJBlj, UUO Ul UU1 U1UUBU j and most respected hardware men, was also , examined. He said he thought that the calibre was some larger, perhaps 40. ! Bob Pulley was examined His testimony was about as already slat ed. In his evidence Pullev said that he knew the lands to be posted whare the proposed to fish; that Sawny Bryan told him that they (Ed Yar- boro, Bob Pulley and Sawny Bryan) had been , forbid len to fish at tint place . After examination of Mr Puileya recess was tiken when our report closed. We do not think a verdict will be reached to lay; if at all it will be a a very late hour. Everything will be done to ferret out and punish the murderer. We believe he will be fouud. The funeral of Mr Bryan took plae this afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence of Mr Otho CiMbtrve, on East Martin street. Our Churches Yesterday. CENTRAL M E CHURCH The services at Central Methodist Church yesterday Were of a very in teresting and profitable character. The exercises at the Sunday School in the morning were quite interesting and out of the usual line, it being children's dajr. In addition to a very earnest address by the pastor, there were impress! 'o recitations by Miss Cornilia Baily and Marvin Nash. The sermon at 11 am by the pa. tor, Rev L L Nash, was a very impressive and instructive one, on the character of the "Shanimite Woman whose child the prophet El'.sha raised from the dead. ' ' At night the subject was ' In His Name." John 16 20 S7. The di course was the "Gospel Epi tomized," in its sweetness, freshness and full ness. It was indeed a rich Gospel treat. EDENTON STREET -SI E CHURCH. Rev Mr Cordon, of Edenton Street M E Church, and Dr Watkins, of the First Presbyterian Church, exchang ed pulpits yesterday morning. Dr Watkins at the 11 a m services, preached an earnest and highly in teresting sermon. The sermon from begining to the close gave hi congre gat'on much satisfaction, and all re -tired feeling that they were spiritual ly blessed from the services. Dr Wat kins is one of the f oremo ,t preachers in his denomination. . We feel that it is helpful for pas tors to exchange pulpits occasionally, it binds our Christian people togeth er in bonds of friendship and unity. At the 8pm services, Mr Cordon took his congregation to olden times when class meetings was the order of the Church in' those times, and con trasted the healthfulness of tha Methodist Church at the present d .y and then. He showed very conclu sively that the church now, having largely increased in members, yet.the spirituality is not so good as theu.Mr Cordon was earnest in his appeal, es pecially on using the means of prayer. baptist tabernacle. The Sunday School of the Baptist Tabernaole was well attended and several new scholars was enrolled.
