Augusta, fla., Dec. 26.-On Thursday night driven by tho unremitting hand of remorce to self-destruction, Luke Kirkland, of 1379 Greene .treot, after having talked with his son Olin Ki: land, and hip. son's wife, sent a bullet through his heart and atoned for some crime that was eating out the very vitals of his conscience, and which most likely was the horrible murder of Thomas ,I. Wiggins, who was slain it a most heartless manner last Monday evening on t'he bank of tho Savannah river and his lbody thrown into the ;water. It has been. intimated that 'Luke Kirkland, who was known to have becn a friend of the murdered Thomas J. Wiggins, has been acting nervously and queerly since the tragedy. On Thrusday aftternoon he left the y of Atugusta, ostensibly to yisit his son, Olin Kirkland, a'. Monetto, S. C., during the holidays. 1ie arrived at his son's ho:ne Thirsday afternoon. 'During the evening lie sat around the fire at his son's home, conversing with his son and his son's wife. lie stated to then, according to testimony adduced in the eoroner's investiga tion, that ho was in trouble; that a man had been killed in Augusta larA Monday night, and that they were try ing to "ring him in it." His son stat ed that he then tried to get his father to tell him of the crime but he refused to talk. 'Luke Kirkland then dictated a' ter to his son's wife, who wrote it out in. longhand as the old man sat there planning his own undoing. It is addressed to his wife at 1379 Greene street, Augusta, and is as follows: Monetta, S. C., Thursdiay Night. "I am at. Olin's tonight. I hope you all good luck and hope that mess will soon be seleld; :n1dt as for -he ing with nt, he was not, not with me no more than '1) minutes.
