morning to Investigate whst promises
to be a sensational case; the death of J.
II. Dennis, a farmer. Li last night
two negroes, Charles Ho on, a power
ful man, aged 80, and Bet . e J add. Den
nis was found dead by the well In his
yard Sunday afternoon. He and his
wife and sister were on the porch of the
house when a noise was heard at the
well, some one having; released the
bucket, which fell with a great noise
Dennis went out to see what was the
matter. At the well were the above
named negroes. Horton says Dennis
told him to be careful, and In an Instant
fell dead. Two houra later a doctor was
called to see Mrs. Dennis, whom the
death had prostrated. He looked cas
ually at Dennis' body, and says the
throat was bruised, and that there were
other bruises on the temple, nose and
cheek and that both ears were scratched
There was a large log beside the well.
The coronor exhumed the body today
and made a postmortum. It is claimed
that the negro Horton had made grave
threats against Dennis because the latter

tax on the real value of his property.
