Confined in one of the cells in the Craven countv jail, Clyde Kennedy. Hb&voung white man who at the last term 01 fc.rayen county Superior Court was convicted of the piurder of E. W Sarlandtt, a prosperous farmer whose home was near this city, is. awaiting for his case to be taken to the Supreme Court, his attorneys having taken an appeal from the sentence imposed upon him by Judge R. B. Peebles. In another cell, close by, is Alex Curtiss who was convicted of being an accessory to the crime and who was sentenced to serve five years in prison. Both of these convicted criminals are taking the sentence imposed upon them in a sto clal manner. Kennedy, who is about twenty-five years ol age, realizes that he will be an old man if he goes to prison and serves out the sentence imposed upon him. To make his troubles worse, it is reported that his young wife, who who has for some time been residing at Kinston, is lying at the point of death. The murder for which Kenne dy and Curtiss were convicted was a most brutal one in every detail. Sar landtt, who owned and operated a farm near New Bern, was in the habit of coming so the city once a week and he invariably became intoxicated upon his visits here. On the night of the mureffr he was irnder the influence of' whiskey and met up with Kennedy, Curtiss and Sid Gautier. The four went to the Northern part of the city and there became engaged in an alter cation. Kennedy and Sarlandtt came to blows and the former beat the latter to death with a paling and then, with the assistance of Curtiss and Gautier carried the body to a point near the waterworks and dumped it on the ground where It was later found. Kennedy escaped but was later captured at Wil mington and brought back to the city and placed on trial and convicted. INDORSE HOLDING COTTON. Cleveland County Farmers Rely Largely Upon Their Own.
