AffIKUBU NIRDEI A W»mn Barderd. r«waltd for Swnl kyußdtben (lurid Away and Thrown into a Cred By the Mnrdorrr Augu-tn Chronicle: Dalton, (ia., Nov., 10—Yesterday one of the moat outrageous murders *■»■< developed here that has ever been chronicled from Whitfield since the war. Alxiut 7 o’clock yes terday morning a gentleman from Murray county was coming to Dalton with a loud of cotton, and as he crossed a creek, some three miles of this place, he discovered the laidy of a woman in the stream fjhelow the bridge. Ihe gentleman made, known his dis covery and prompt attention was given to the recovery of the body, after which the Coroner was sent for and the inquest held, but no developments were made as to how she conic to her death, more than that she had several bad bruises on the head and face, which it was reasonable to sup pose that she received from being thrown off the bridge, as it was a high one. The hotly was carried into the city, and there was ; recognized as being the hotly of Miss Lillie Gudger, a young woman whe had come to Dalton some months ago, but had only i made few acquaintances, A post mortem was held over the b< dy> •nd it wus found that she hail been shot with about a 32-culibre pistol, the ball entering her temple and ranging toward the ; top of the head. TIIK GUILTY I’AKTY. During this time there hail been good work put in by the city <letectivcs, and at two o'clock they had their game, a man by the uanic of Charles Patten, to whom circumstantial evidence pointed the night b< fne, Ho went to the •table ot R. B. Springfield, and wanted u hack, as he stated, to drive out in the country about three miles to a friend’s ; that he was going out to get some walnuts ; that he did not have time to go out in the daytime, and lie had them picked up, and all he would have to do was to go and get them. Mr. Patten returned in about an hour and a half with the hack ; never had anything to say to any body, but immediately left the stable. The next morning the hack was found to have blood and cotton bagging rubbed off on it. Mr. Springfield thought strange of that; and as soon as the murder was know ii ho informed the authorities of what he had seen in bishacK. When an examination was made it was found that the cotton lint and lint of bagging in the hack was similar to that •ticking to the garments of the victim. So the evidence pointed to Patten, who was immediately arrested and lodged in jail. After which it was found that one Mr. Holman was an accomplice in the murder, and he was arrested without trouble. Neither of the youug men will have anything to •ay in regard to their case, except that they deny their guilt, but both recognize the woman as being ■ n acquaintance of theirs, and one or two gentlemen have stated that they have acen the woman and these two men together often. Miss Gudger was a tine looking young lady, almut eighteen years old. She came to Dalton some month or so ago and had changed her boarding house several days back, and the lady she had lieen Ikianlii'g with thought her gone to her new place of boarding, and the one that she had engaged board with thought that she was •till staying at the other place a few days longer, aud then fore there was nothing said about the Blissing girl. The accused w ill x certainly get justice in Whitfield, as they are lawabiding people. One of the parlies, the one flint was thought to be an accomplice, has admitted knowing of the crime, fie states that Patten and a woman by the name of Lou Halkiim, killed Miss Gudger last Wednes day night, mid kept her hid in Dalton until Monday night, when she was carried out to the creek and thrown in. The officers nil keepings dose watch and fear the parties will tie lynched to-night. But it is hoped that such will not be the case. .lonralH.ro, Tex**. - 18K5. To llu J It. Mcl.kas, Hl Louis. Mo.
