A DREAM PROPHETIC OF THE COL-

COMMISSIONER GRUGAN, OF CLINTON COUN:
TY, HAS A VISION,
Commissioner Grugan, of Clinton, had
a prophetic vision pointing to the mur-
der of the Celby family, which is thus
told by him: On the night of Thursday,
the 4th instant, as Mr. Grugan lay upon
his bed asleep he had a vision, and in
that vision he saw a lonely spot, anpar-
ently a wilderness, with something like a
house or shed but which seemed to him
more like boards standing on end leans
ing against trees, with a small corn crib
attached, Then he saw a murder com-
mitted near a creek, one person doing
the bloody work, but apparently with a
knife.
Then in his dream he saw the murder
er in another dark and remote spot build
a fire and burn some clothes, at the same
time secreting something that looked to
bim like a crow bar and a satchel, put.

derbrosh. Then he saw the individoal
leave the thicket and cross a creek, where

be was going south, and finally disap-
peared in the woods. Now it must be re-
membered that Mr. Grugan dreamed this
on Thursday night, the 4th instant, two
or perhaps three davs before the Colby
murder was committed, and it made such
an impression on his mind that he oalef
a draft of the locality. Then he told the
dream to his associates at the court house
and showed his draft. Of course he was
laughed at, and they had a great deal of
fun at his expense. Atthe time of

the fact, which a large bundle of cock-

Then came the medicine man who could

it was the worms.

pain was tested by one of our physicians
