| 8838 | Murder of a White Family at Maysville, Kentucky. Tuesday evening, between the hours of twelve and one o[clock, the most fiendish murder it has been our duty to record for a long time took place at Maysville, Kentucky. An old gentleman by the name of Cobb was known to be in possession of about $200 by a brace of villains by the names of Collins and Moore, and in order to get it they made an attack on the old gentleman, his wife, and two sons, aged fifteen and eighteen years. The old gentleman and the two sons were killed on the spot, but the old lady was lingering yesterday morning, and faint hopes were entertained of her recovery. She gave the information who the murderers were. A large body of the inhabitants turned out in hot pursuit, but, up to the time our informant left, they were yet uncaptured. - Cin. Enquirer.

| 8839 | Murder Takes New Twist Witnesses tell of auto near scene of Cassity slaying by gangster in Pasadena Another mystery automobile was injected into the underworld revenge killing of William J. Cassity, 63 years of age, yesterday at a Pasadena inquest over the body of the man who died before gangsters’ bullets Sunday night because, police assert, he “tipped off” the authorities to active bootleggers in “Little Italy.” Before the Coroner’s jury returned a verdict that Cassity came to his death at the hands of unidentified persons with homicide intent, two near-witnesses to the killing told of another car, in addition to the one the gunman used, being in the vicinity of Fair Oaks avenue and Alta Lorna Drive, where the shooting occurred. Donald McIntyre, 471 Eldora Road, Altadena, and Herbert Anderson, 3104 North Raymond avenue, Pasadena, each 16, who were driving near the intersection heard the three shots and saw the gunman drive hurriedly away, leaving his victim dying in the street. Car Speeds Away McIntyre and Anderson also told the Coroner’s jury they saw a small coupe parked at the head of Fair Oaks avenue. After the shots were fired they said the lights of the small car switched on quickly and it sped away. Deputy sheriffs are trying to find a clew to enable them to locate the occupants of the small car. After the verdict was returned, the officials agreed that Casity was killed by rum dealers because he “talked too much at the wrong place and wrong time.” August Nelson, who resides in the Cassity home, 777 College street, is believed to be the last person who saw the tinsmith alive. He testified he noticed nothing unusual about Cassity’s demeanor when he left home shortly before he was killed. Son Warned Father A.B. Cassity, son of the slain man, testified he had repeatedly warned his father from informing on bootleggers in the neighborhood in which they lived. Deputy Sheriffs Monteleone and Croushorn testified concerning the conditions as they found them when they were called to the scene of the killing by McIntyre and Anderson. Capt. Bright, chief of the Sheriff’s homicide squad, declared yesterday that he and his investigators have not the slightest clew to the identity of Cassity’s murder of murderers.
