Killing took Place in theNegro Settlement Called

San Domingo

George Bacon poled was killedSaturday night by another negrdnamed Alfred Lisdbdy The killingtook place t putfeido the citylimits on the Olarksvilje pike

So far as gathered from the va ¬

rious accounts ttife killing was donewithout any provocation whateverGeorge Bacon was one of the bestknown negroes in the city He wasoften called George Campbell andhadalways been considered a quietinoffensive man andit is hard tounderstand how he got into a diM ¬

culty that cost himhis lifeA Kentuckian reporter saw Alfred

Lisandy in the county jail early yes ¬

terday morning His twin brotherAlbert was also in prison Alfredwas of course asked no questionsthat might incriminate him Heseemed as indifferent about the fouldeed he had committed as if he hadonly shot a dog

Alfred and Albert Lisandy thetwins areabout 21 or 22 years oldand are very much attached to eachother It is said that wherever yousee one you are apt to see bothAlbert says he has been living sincelast November with Mr Dan Settleabout 3 miles from the city on theCockes Mill road and that his wifehas been living with him as coijjc

for Mr SettleAs Alfred had not had his exam ¬

ining trial when seen by the repre-sentative

¬

of this paper the particu ¬

lars had to be gathered from varioussources One report says that theconfessed murderer had been in thecity with his brother after darkSaturday night and they bothtanked up on whiskey and werearrested and fined but this hasnot been verified From anothersource we learn that Alfred met hisvictim after he had been arrestedand told Bacon that he had been thecause of his arrest and if he didntgo back to town and pay his fine hewould kill him The report furthersays that Alfred then stooped downas if to pick up astone when Bacontold him not to throw a stone athim and Alfred replied No I willnot hit you with a rock and roseup and fired one shot which tookeffect in Bacons right eye close tothe nose killing him instantly Ithas been said that Bacons brainswere scattered about where he fell

Alfred then came into the cityand surrendered to Sheriff LentDavis who under teleph 0 rhtiJ

structions from Judge Fowlerplaced him in the county jail toawait his examining taial

J B Allensworth thecoroner was telephoned fatpromptly summoned a jury and in¬

vestigated the killing Following isthe verdictWe jury summoned by thecoroner to inquire into the cause ofthe death ofGeorgo Campbell findfrom the evidence that GeorgeCampbell came to his death by apistol in the hands of AlbertLisanby the bullet taking effect inthe face beneath the brain Wefind Alfred Lisanby the murdererWe further find Alfred Lisanby aid ¬

ing in said crime and made falsestatements to the under oath

Two negro women were witnqg9sof the affair Their evidence was ofsuch a character us to lead the juryto consider Alfred Lisanby aparty to the crime and the coronar at once had him arrested andput in jail with his brother Theone who fired the shot confessed tothe killing and may waive examina¬
