Another business change in town is reported for this week. Mr. I.C. Dodd has sold out to Mr. R. C. Chapman who will carry a similar stock of goods. A Pocahontas telegram to the Richmond "Dispatch" says: On Saturday Nogrady Bela broke open a trunk belonging to John Kereks and robbed it to $200 and escaped. Soon after the theft was discovered a crowd of Hungarians followed in pursuit, but he had a good start and nothing was heard of him until the Sunday morning train was coming into Flat Top yard, about four miles from here, when one of the crew noticed a man hanging to a tree. Upon investigation it was found to be Bela. Some persons had strangled him and then hung him by the strap he wore around his waist, having been frist robbed of everything he had. There is no clue as to who did the deed.
