Yester- day afternoon Dr. Murray was called in to see the woman. The moment he saw her he said she was dying. He made no examination of the case sufficient to base a diagnosis on her condition. He saw that she was beyond medical aid, and accepted the statement that was given oui that Annie Marshall died with a con- gestive chill.

A gash was found in the head three inches long, CUT TO THE SKULL, in which there was a half pint 03 maggots. They were working, and the stench that arose was stifling. The clothing was removed and the body was one succession of cuts, bruises and mashes following each other. -The back was as black and blue as flesh can be. Its whole length, near the spinal column, and in the center of the back, was a swollen place in the first stages of mortification. An incision was made in the swollen place, out of which exuded a pint of corruption. The physicians both believe this one wound was sufficient to cause the poor woman’s death. From the feet to the top of the head gash after gash was displayed before the eyes of the horrified jury—evidences of the most inhuman treatment ever administered toa human being. Great PIECES OF FLESH WERE GOUGED OUT of the arms, legs and back. and the hands and face were scarred and wounded.

Judge Ellett Suddenly Dies After Welcoming the President to the City of Memphis. Memphis Tenn., Oct. 15.—Judge I. T. Ellett, who made the welcom- ng address to the President, died om the stand before the ceremonies were over. This most unortunate occurrence nterrupted the formalities of the secasion, just as the president closed his remarks. Though the day was not uncom- ‘ortably Warm, the spot was an xposod one, and Judge Ellett, who stood for a time with his hat off as he President was speaking, sat lown and was overcome by the heat.
