G;i., Nov. 14.—News bus reached here of one of the most brutal murder* that has occurred in Wilkinson county for tunny years. Mrs. J. M. Knight, the wife of a prosjierttus farmer living about five miles from this place, murdered in her house, which was afterward robbed and burned to the ground. Early in the morning Mr. J. M. Knight, accompanied by his two grown sons, went over to a neighbor’s livin; about three quarters of a mile away, to assist in making syrup. At 10 o’clock they saw smoke in thedirection of their home nud they left immediately, reach ing home in time to find it enveloped in flames. Rushi ng into the house, they found the body of Mrs. Knight lying in a pool of blood, but the flames had gained such headway that they were unable to reach the body. There it re mained until the house was burned. It is sup|H»sed that ufter Mr. Knight and his sous had left, the burglar en tered the house, but was surprised by Mrs. Knight, returning from the cow- pen, where she had been milking; and that the burglar killed her and burned the house in order to hide nil proof of his guilt. A hatchet and chisel which had lieen- left by Mr. Knight on the porch were missing. The hatchet was found near the bony of Mrs. Knight and the chisel near one of the trunks. A party of gentlemen from this place went over to the scene of the tragedy. The remains of Mrs. Knight were taken from the ruins Nearly the entire body was consumed, except a part of her back and head. Her hair, being clotted with blood, was not burned. No clue to the perpetrator of this fiendish act has been found as yet. The murderer made off with about $100. COt'NTY DIRECTORY. ADMIRAL BROWN. Denies That Information U iik (II IJy HU Ship.
