Uighain was the perpetrator of the crime which cost the lives of three members of the Uighain family and the two adopted children of the date Mrs. Black is the opinion of the Jury of inquest which rendered its ver dict to-night. After hearing at Pamplico the tes timony of thirty witnesses, includ ing the re-examination of Mrs. Rig ham, the wife of Edmund Bighain, and bis oldest daughter, the Jury found that Mrs. M. M. Bighain, Mrs. Margie Black, tho two McCracken children, aged three and six, and L. S. Bighain had como to their deaths at the hands of E. I). Bigham. Coroner Smith will issue a warrant charging E.D. Bigham with the mur ders. Bigham is now being held at tho county jail on a warrant sworn out by John McCracken, the father of the two murdered children. This warrant was served and Bigham ar rested on Jan. 20, flvo days after tho tragedy at the Bigham home, two miles from Pamplico. It was at first believed that L. S. ( Bigham, in a flt of despondency over , alleged financial troubles, had com mitted the murders and then killed himself, but following the strong sentiment in the community that such could not have boen the case, Coroner Smith continued his inves tigation and has built up a case, the circumstances of which, based on the evidence adduced, are believed by the jury of inquest to be sufficiently strong to warrant the accusing of Edmund Bigham. Phillp H Arrowsmith conducted tho Investigation for tho coroner at tho hearing. He dug deep into the case. Tho two Slngletary negroes who have been In jail hero for several days as material wltnessos, and the wife of Andrew Slnglotnry, were Im portant witnesses. Andrew Slngle tary testified that after the wood cutters had been paid off Saturday, Jan. 10. E. D, Bigham and L. S. Big ham remained in tho woods. Later he passed the houso with his wife and son, going to Pamplico, and saw E. D. Bigham emerge from tho woods alono, and, aftor looking up and down tho road, proceeded to tho houso. This was aftor Mrs. Bigham had sent a vest out to him by ono of the McCracken children. Bighain went toward the house ^with the child. The Hmo was about 3 o'clock. Ills testimony was corroborated by his wife and son. Hus Hurried Conference. Robert Foxworth tostlflod that Ed mund Bigham, with his family In his car, had swept up to the houso,which was only a short dlstanco from the Bigham home, and had n hurriod conversation with him-so hurried, In fact, that tho witness did not ro momhor much about lt. Bigham then turned his car In tho direction of tho Bigham homo. Tho testimony of Mrs. Bigham and of tho oldost daughter is said lo have varlod consldoarbly from that given at tho hearing Sundny, Jan. 16, and although tho two wore to gothor In tho car on the trip to and or wonder what thoughts inspired tho wonderful Kodin und tho long years of toil that made this master piece of tile age possible. Gray-haired men and women tarry long at the statue of "The Thinker." To them it means much.

It was stated to-day that the deed which Mrs. Bigham presented to the Clerk of Court Mr. Slngletary.. for recording, and which later was with drawn by her for the reason that she did not have sulllciont money to pay for the revenue stamps, amounting to $42, has not yet been recovered. Mrs. Bigham ls said to have stated that she delivered the deed to her husband at the Jail. The deed, according to Mr. Slngle tary, who read lt closely while it was in his possession, was signed by Mrs. M. M. Dignam, Mrs. Margie Black and L. S. Bigham, and con veyed the entire Bigham proproty to $42,000. Mr.Singletary declares that the deed bears every appearanco of 1 having been tampered with, and that it ls evident that the names of tho original grantees had been erased and the name of Edmund Bigham written therein. It was executed at Charleston originally and was pro bated by Sam Rittenberg, notary public. According to Mr. Slngletary, the consideration also appeared to have beon changed, eliminating reference to the mortgage coverfng the bond for Cleveland Bigham. Mrs. E.
