we have to record this week, fa a
the Lancaster Lsdger, the most bi
tal murder that has ever occurred in
Lancaster County, within our knowl
cdge, Mr. Dzvid KirMkptrick, a quiet
citien, living abut one mile from the
village, was, (in Saturday night 1 1t,
about 8 o'clock, called to the door of
his residence aned inhumanily shot
down, lie lived several hours after
the deed was cmnimitted, and remain
ed sensible to the last, and gave his
dying testimony as to who the asassin
was. This being the lsat outrage of
the kind that has taken pelace in the
county, the whole popeulatt ionmnife..t
a searching disposition to feret out
the guilty party. Politics, it is
thought, had nothing to do with the
matter'. Mr. K. was a Conservative,
but never took an netive part in poli
ties It was discovered, shortly after
[ts oscurrence, that he had been shiot
with his own gun, supposed to have
boon stolen from the house while the
the family were at supper in the kiteha
en. A jury of inueust was empjan.
nelled on Sunday morning, composed
of whites and blacks, andi after the
hearing of the testimnony, a further
investigstion was peostponed to Trues
day. Suspicion resting upon a col
ored boy, Edomn ilammtondi, who had
rocenitly bOeen disoharged from the
seivices of Mr. Kirkpatrick, and
whom the deceased arnrmecd was his
murderer, he was arrested by the depu.
ty sheriff, on Sunday evening, and
lodged in jail.
