She was ; accomplished and of prepossessing appear- ; ahcc, and she went with Lloyd to' Roches- 1 ter, where they staid a few days, and ! went, it is supposed, to Batavia, where j she is now said to be. Getting out of I funds, Lloyd went back to Lockport, and I fmdihg that he was not discovered by his • acquaintances, planned and carried into execution the murder of an old friend, named Charles T. Thody. Thody was discovered by Dr. Davison about seven o’clock near his (Davison’s) office door, covered with blood, and holding in his hands an iron bar with which he declared Lloyd beat him. He also exclaimed that it was: too bad that Lloyd kill him when he had been lodging two or three days, and immediately expired.— Thody was a friend of Lloyd’s and done several acts of kindness for him. The deceased was a bachelor, and is supposed to have been quite wealthy, It is sup posed that the murderer indicted the blows sometime during the night, and left sup posing that his victim was dead. The motive is supposed to have been plunder, ns the deceased’s pocket book, which was usually well suppled with money, and on Saturday was known to contain $75 is missing. At four o’clock, on the morn ing of the murder, Lloyd called at a livery stable in the village and hired a horse and buggy with which to go to Buffalo, but "It is supposed that he took the Post road leading to Lewiston, and made good his way to Canada. He is described as being about thirty or thirty-eight years of age, rather prepossessing appoarence, five and a half feet high with a dark complexion, black curly hair, Mack whiskers and sharp black eyes.
