Hodges, as claimed by his son, was going for them in an ox-cart, when he was overtaken by Lawson near the house in which the woman lives at the hour stated above, Without waiting for explana- tions Lawson seized a standard from a wagon- body near by, and calling out, ‘What in the h—1 are you doing here?” struck the old man on the head with the club in both hands, Hodges fell to the ground and his assailant kicked his te form several times, He was carried to the house and died in a few hours. Sheriff Darnoll, who was in Marlboro’ at the time, arrested Lawson, and a coroners’ inquest was held. Dr. Griffith made the post mortem examination, and found the man’s skull badl: fractured. Lawson admitted the killing, an said that he thought that Hodges was stealing corn from his corn-house near by when he came up. When asked if the deceased said be bmn) before he struck him, he Ae ses “No; I didn’t give himtime.” After the killing the cart was found in a field near by, but no corn was in it. The only witness to the deed was a son of the deceased. The jury founda verdict in accordance with the above facts. Bail was denied the prisoner, and he was committed to the county jail. Marlboro’ jail now confines two prisoners for murder, the other being Nel- son Phomas, held for the killing of Eliza Fos- ter, near Benning, a few weeks ago. A HISTORIC HOUSE. The old house in which Archbishop John Carroll, the first Catholic bishop of the United States, was born, is standing here to-day in & fair state of preservation.

It was the first house built in Marlboro’, and stands in the original plot of the town, “Lot No. 1, house No.1.” Bricks from the odd structure are much sought after by relic hunters, one of them being in posses- sion of Cardinal Gibbons. There is some talk of buying the lot on which it stands and build- ing thereon a memorial church to take the place of the present Catholic church, which is old and too small for the congregation.
