History of the Case.
The body of Myrtle Hawkins was
found in lake Osceola Sunday, Septerber
10 of last year. She was 20
years old and daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. W. H. Hawkins. l^he first
coroners inquest resulted in a verdict
to the effect that the deceased
had met her death in a manner
unknown to the jury. The finding
caused much public comment of an
unfavorable nature and this resulted
in a statement by the coroner of
Henderson county that the verdict
was so worded and rendered in the
hope of allaying the suspicions of
the guilty person or persons. A
second inquest was held September
17, many new witnesses being examined.
The^ verdict following stated
that MyTtle Hawkins came to
\ her death at the hands of a person
or persons unknown to the jury."
Since that time Solicitor A. Hall
Johnson of this district and the
Hendersonville police have worked
steadily on the case. Rewards were
offered by the county and State
amounting in all to $850.
