^Tuesday morning. May20, 1902, e
Mr. E. M. Moore came to Char- )j
lotte with his wile and three L
children to take part in 'he
celebration of the day Th ?y fi
went to the home ol Mrs. Moore'% t<
brother, Mr. T. K. Vandle. who ei
was then living on South Brev- o
ard street, and in the early eve- n
ning Mr. Moore staried with the ri
horse and buggy lor the Gari- at
baldi place, thiee miles south of rt
the city. Mr. Moore was a! w
that time working for Mr. John tl
Garibaldi and had borrowed the ii
team from him. This was the last
ever seen or heard ol .Mr. Moore, w
The nex' clay it was learned cr
that he had not arrived at the tli
Garibaldi place and immediate- th
ly his brothers, Messrs. Martin pi
Moore and E. V. Moore and T.
R. Yandle, assisted Chief ol Pc-. ai
lice W. S. Orr in an effort to bi
locate the missing man. His
horse and buggy were found in c8
DiI worth. The buggy ha l been i
overiurneu hi'u *ub ijiuk yfr\
near the spot where the remains
were lound. The horse was
found standing at a nearby tree, P
but there were no signs to u>di- ai
cate foul p'?y. It is true thai a
the rain during the night of the al
20th had been hcavy and if is ir
said that Mr. Moore had bjen si
drinking. G
The body was found lying at w
full length on the sewer pipe.
with the lace upturned, not indicating
that the man had fallen "
into the ditch while trunk, it
looked more as it murderous a
hands had placed tlie man in C|
such a position. h
There is 110 doubf in the minds '1
ot the officers that Moore met h
with toul play. liad the horse
run away from the dr ver on rt1
that fatal night, the buggy
would have been turned on its dl
side towards the street, instead \
of toward the ditch, in iront ol cc
which was a high embankment at
and Moore would have been
thrown on toe car track. or
