I fully appreciate the necessity at times to use firmness, and evon con si Jerable force in taking charge of inmates of the asylum, but it would have to be an extreme case where two attendants would ' have to use sufficient force to cause the death of a patient. ; Knowing that you will give this matter a most rigid examination, keeping nothing from' the public, am, with', kindest regards, t Sincerely yours,. t R.

Jordan empanneled the following Jury: A. M. Powell, A. R. D. John son,7 C. J. Parker, C. W. White, John Ward, and I. C. Blair. There seemed to be some question as to the right of the coroner to hold an Inquest without an examination of the body of the dead man. Solicitor Armstead Jones was present to conduct the ex amination and it was finally decided to go into the testimony. Lee Alston,, a negro laborer at the Careleigh phosphate Works, was the; first 'witness examined. Witness said he was at work In the mill Thursday evening, . , August 24th, when he heard the cry of "Catch that manMj went to the door and saw a mati running with two other men in pursuit; The lead man had a stick or something in his hand, but wit ness was not near renough to say for certain, being about 150 yards away. Did not see any blood on man's face or clothing. Witnessi said about 15 minutes later he saw the wounded man: lying. on--the ground, in front of the office, but did' not go near him. ; Saw them take man away. Mr.' : W. , A. Parker, a ' book-keeper at the Caraleigh Wills, was the next witness.
