THOE BTONY OF THE MURDER AND TRIAL, Trom the St. Lonia Demoerat, Aug, 20, On tha night of Thursday, April 24, 1873, whilo \ho stenmor Graud_Tower, of ‘tho Momphis & Bt.

Doylo waB out front. 1o turned and loft the-boat, having a club or bludgoon in Lis hnnd. In a vory ghort time o noiso was heard ou tho wharf-bont, and ou excitod number of the crow gathore sround the mate, who had spparontly been knocked down, Doylo was unconscious, and wag takon on the bost and received modical abtou- tion, whilo the man who struck him oscapod, No ono had scon the stroko, sud it was clear that ltlllmd baen done without the mato knowing who aid it T'ho bont left that night for Momphis, but tho erow begau to suspect tho man who had inquired for Doylv, This man's namo was Campboll, who bud, eomo weeks bofore, bean a roustabout on thio bont, but laving bud o _diflioulty with the mato he left. 'The polico of the city were on the alort, but, haying uo paticular information, worked romewhat in the dark to find the mur- dorer, Doyle died on bonrd tho Grand Tosver, and on Saturday, the 2ith of April, Chief ol Polico McHall, of this city, recerved s tolegram iviug him such information as ennbled him in fhmy ‘minutes to cepturo Campbell. When ar- restod, Campboll asked what it was for, and Lo was informed that it was for striking Thomns Doylo, tho mato of tho Grand Tower. Ho ad- mitted the striking, and, according Lo tho testi- pouy of Mr. Mcliall, said ho wished Lo had Killed him. Ho was thon informed that ho was dend. Lo roplicd ho was gladof it ; that ho was wbad man aud ouglit to die. Campboll was committed to jnil, and tho Grand Towor roturning to Cairo on Snturday night, Dr. Worden, of Cairo, was called to mako B post-mortom exatuination of tho body of Dogle, This wns dono, and tho discovery was mudo that tho skult was cracked and that emall piecos had rossed on tho brain, producing death, Camp- Eall was examined bofore Judge Bross, on Mou- day motn; tho 28th of April, and committed to jail to await bis trinl befora the Cirenit Court, and the witnesses were racoguized in tho sum of €500, "Tlio Grand Jury of Alexander County found a truo bill apuivst Campbell for murder, and hig trial commenced in tho Cireuit Court on {he 20th of July.

On the night ro- forred to, prisoncr came on board the boat whilo Iying at Cairo, and inquirod for Doylo; had o stick in his hand; soon after I heard that Doyle was hurt, Willinm MolIall, Chief of Police of the City of Cairo, testificd to arresting the prisoner and turning him overto tho 8horiff ; that prigonorhad agked why he was arrestod, nnd, whon told thnt it was for striking the mato of the Grand Tower, b first denicd, and sftorwards acknowledgod it, saying ho wished ho had killed him, When in- formed that Doylo wns dead, lio snid he was ad of it—that Lie was & bad man, and ought to Envu died, &e. Dr. Horaco Worden, of Cairo, testified to making. t.hunou-murtom oxamunatlon, ond deo- clared that tho Dlow caused Doyle's death, This closed the most important testimony for tho pnnFlo. - B8ix witneuses were oxamined for iho dofonso, all tostifying that, in thoir opinion, Doylo was o bad and dangorous man ; that ho carried o pis- tolin his boots, and brass knuckles, and that bie was nbusivo, overbearing, &e. Aftor able spooches from counsel on both sidos, tho caso was given to tho jury on tho evoning of tho 80th of July, and the next morn- ing, aftor being out ixteon houra, thoy brought In'a verdict of guilty as charged in tho indict- mont, fixing the punishmout of the prisonor aé dpath by hangivg. Tho prisoner roceivad tho vordiot with much poolness, and wns remanded to jail, his counsel moving for a now trial, which motion was taken onder advisemont. On tho evoning of tha Bth of August Jufl§u Baker announced his declsion, overruling tha motion for & now triul, and appoiuting tho moru- ing of tho Gth for tho delivery of tho sontenco, The Court-room was prutly well filled noxt morn- ing, but a8 soon as Court was oponcd the coun- sel for tho prisoncr eniersd n motion for tho arrest of judgment. ‘Ihis, however, was ovor- ruled, and at 11 o'clock Campbell was asked it 1o had nnylhlui to ray why sontenco of doath should not Do prononnced against Lim. Ilo made mno roply, but stoos and lig- toned to the sentonco with moro indiffor- onco than any other man in the room, Tho sentence wad briof, but very impreeaive, belng o roview of tho ovidenco und an exprossion of opinion a8 to tho justuess of tho yerdict.
