A FONTENELLE TRAGEDY

As we go to press word is at hand that a double tragedy was enacted this morning at Fontenelle, whereby Ben Baldwin and his son lost their lives at the hands of one Arthur Sloan, who is said to be Mrs. Baldwin’s son by a former husband. The Sheriff was telegraphed for and Deputy Mencke has gone out there. Further than this nothing is known here at the writing.
