"A blood-curdling story of murder comes from the neighborhood four or five miles northwest of Cave City. In that neighborhood lived a man named Lafayette Bogle, and with him another named John Fan. On last Thursday evening Bogle and Fan started to Cave City together, and after they had been gone from home a half hour or more, firing was heard and screams. The next day Bogle was found shot through the back twice, the ball of one shot lodging against the breast bone, and his head beaten into a shapeless mass. A coroner's inquest was held, and a post mortem examination made by Dr. Garnett of Cave City. A pistol and bowle knife were picked upon the ground which were claimed by Fan, who came on the ground while the inquest was being held. Fan was arrested and taken to Hart County jail, being strongly suspected of being the bloody murderer. Bogle's pocket book was found on the ground rifled of its contents. A near neighbor says Fan came to his house about nine o'clock that night, about half an hour after the murder was supposed to have been comitted, and called him out and told him if any inquiry was made about him (Fan) to state that he came to his house about dusk of that evening. The presumption of guilt is so strong against Fan as to leave hardly any room for doubt as to his being the perpetrator of the fearful crime. The paties to this bloody tragedy are new comers in the neighborhood, having within the past year or two moved in from Tennessee. It is hoped the most rigid penalty will be meted out to the guilty party.
"Fan will have his examining trial at Munfordville on Saturday next."

DEPP
"Our Community was startled on Sunday evening last with the painful intelligence that little Jennie Depp, daughter of Mrs. Hardin Depp, had suddenly and unexpectedly died at the residence of Thomas M Dickey, Esq. Jennie was a lovely little girl, greatly loved by all who knew her, and was the idol of a fond and stricken mother. Her guileless spirit has entered upon that rest that remains for the pure of heart, and many sincere prayers will go up that the dreadful calamity may be termpered in its rest upon a mother's bleeding heart. Dr. Barbee conducted the funeral exercises, on Monday, after which her remains were deposited in the family burying ground in town."

HOGAN
"Mrs. Wm. Hogan, of Hiseville, died at the home of her husband in that place at 11 o'clock yesterday. Her death was not unexpected as she had been in ill health, for a long time, and had recently had a surgical operation performed in Louisville, from which she never recuperated. She was about sixty-years old at the time of her death.
"Mrs. Hogan was an excellent, estimable, christian lady, and her death will be most sincerely mourned by a large circle of friends. While the last year of her life was clouded with pain, she bore her suffering with fortitude and composure, resting serenely in the hopes and promises of The Better Land. She was a consistent and devout member of the Christian Church.
"Funeral services will be conducted at Hiseville this morning at 9 o'clock, after which the remains will be brought to Glasgow for interment, and buried in the Odd Fellows Cemetery here at 2 o'clock."
Not found buried at Glasgow Municipal Cemetery (formerly the Odd Fellows Cemetery) or in any recorded cemetery.

KEETON
"Charley Keeton, a young man who lived in Page's Heights, this place, was killed in a mysterious manner near Rowletts Monday night. It appears that Keeton, who was a witness in the notorious Bevil murder trial at Munfordville, started home with a lot of boon companions, upon the case being continued. At Rowletts they got off, announcing their intention of walking over to Glasgow through the country. That was the last seen of Keeton alive. Yesterday mroning his body was found close to the railroad track, with a bullet hole through it and a bruised place in the back of hishead. Two or three of the crowd with him were arrested and taken back to Munfordville to tell what they know of the murder. The general idea appears to be that Keeton was shot and killed and then placed on the railroad track to create the impression that he had been killed by the railroad men.
"Worth Wilson and Geo. Jackson were the two men arrested as suspected with knowing something of the murder.

KINCHELOW
"Mrs. Kinchelow, wife of Mr. Tom Kinchelow, died, below town eight or ten miles, on Saturday last of that insidious and fearfully destructive disease, consumption. This last death numbers the third, that we have reported from that part of the county in the past two months, from the same disease. Consumption is fearfully fatal, and alarmingly common. Comfortably clad bodies and dry, warm feet are highly important considerations, with people of week lungs.

PRESTON
"SAD DEATH. One of the melancholy afflictions we have know lately, befell the family of our friend and countryman, Mr. John B. Preston on last Friday night, in the death of his son, Jack, who died on that night from a cancer of the throat. Six months ago he was in the vigor of budding manhood, and looked the impersonation of health and bid fair to live long, in joy to his family. About that time the insidious destroyer began his ravages and steadily progressed with the fatal work, until death stilled his young heart with its icy touch. Jack was a splendid boy, full of life and hope, and the idol of a fond mother's tenderest love, and a conspicuous favorite with all his relations and friends. He has passed away like a deam, and a mother's aching heart, and a father's sad face tell too sorrowfully of the desolation that marked his untimely death. His burial on Sunday last, near of the home of his sorrowing parents was largely atended by his relations and friends, and his remains were deposited in their final resting place amid the tears and heart felt sympathies of the entire concourse."
