Miss., January 19.?Robert George, a
nephew of Uuited States Senator J. T
George, committed suicide at Ittabcna,
Mias., last nigbt while on the way to Carrolltou

Young George was charged with the murder
of Capt. W. B. 1'iince, one of the m-.'Si
prominent and wealthy planters in the a'ate.
The etory of the ttagrdy ie one of t he
most sensational in the history of Mississippi:
A few nights ago C'apt. Prince wit
assaulted with an axe when he entered tb<
doer of bis residence in the suburbs 01
Carrellton. He was knocked senseless, nntl
ley in a pool of blood until the next morn
iog, when he was discovered by his wife
His weouda were fatal. Investigation re
suited in the arrest of Kobevt George.
Young George was vio ently in love wit)
Mies Shelly Prince, a daughter of Capt
Prince, who objected to the match ant
threatened te disinherit his daughter unlesi
she gave George up, which she refused t<
do. He wrote hia will, disinheriting her
The couple commenced making preprint ioni
for the future by the daughter drawioj
drafts ou her father in the name of a New
Orleans merchant to a large amouut, which
t yeung George cashed in the I'errollton
Bank, having the uiouey placed t<> hit

they might have a chance to s>cal. There is

is all for tho sole purpose, on tlie part of
