From tbs Mercantile Advert ifer*
Gentlemen,
The following is an extra# of a
letter received this day, dated Fin
ciiftle, . the 14th Auguft 1810,—
The circumitances menttond are fo
extraordinary that I conceived it
material to pubi fti the information.
Should you be of the fime opinion
you will he wi Tr g to give it a place
i.i your Mercant.le Advrrifer.
A Sttbfcriber .
“ The town of F ncaftie has been
in a great upr(ar in confiqiience of
a fmcide committed 0.. Friday laflt
at the jail. You may remember
an ad/ertifement inferted fme rime
ego in the New-Yurk papeis, r-.'a
tive to the elopement of a Mr.
Walfi giam, with the wife and
child of a P )ft-mafi.rr in Orarge
County. Ic appears that Walfing
ham was an rllumed name j aid
that during Its progress to this place
he at various times went by feveral
ones; when he was taken here he
called himfelf Smith. A civil a:-
tion being commenced igaiuft him,
and he be<rg unable to ft ul bail to
the amount ordered by the rwarrif
tra es, he was committed to pr f n ;
ar.d afrtr a few di r s con fi *em ~oc,
execu cd that jjftice up -n himlcif
whirh the laws could no; lijv’ in
fl de l. Bat the only roing wich
i iduced me i:o mentio his fa;e, was
the my ft ry which it involves—
Before tie rn’gifl a es, and a t r
committed, he itradily pet filled in
refitting ro reveal h:s na n**, and af
ter his death, it was fiu and he had
not only burnt every art cie of h's
cloa‘hing that could lea l to a dif
covery of his fam lv, but had alfj
burnt a larg: fam of bank n tes,
from an apprehenfi >n that m ght af
ford fome clue to that obj #. Hi
has left a paper on the fubj 6t of his
condu#, which is not written in h s
crimin')* hand but in rjund letters.
His very boots were cut in fmall
pi tees, left they Ih nuld betray him ;
and h s face and body fo mangled 41
to bear no refemblance to their for
mer appearance. Th’g circum
ftance lu> g ven rife to a variety of
conjectures, aad will probably afford
an exclufive topic of
here for a month nt leaft.**
