April 7, 1837   Charlotte Journal April 7, 1837
   MURDER -- On Saturday last, in the lower part of Mecklenburg, HENRY MASSEY 
was stabbed in the abdoman by MORRIS SEBORN, which resulted immediately in his 
death. SEBORN is now confined to the jail of this place to await his trial at 
the next Superior Court. There was no just cause for the committing of this 
deed, and the prisoner himself said there was none. But attributes it to his 
being intoxicated. This is another melancholy result of the excessive use of 
ardent spirits.
