GRAND JURY REPORT.

We investigated the killing of Charles Cadle by Joseph Chance, and do not feel justified under the evidence adduced before us, to report a bill in the matter. We investigated the alleged killing of Samuel Moyer and find from the evidence presented to us that said Moyer was probably murdered, but that the killing took place on the Kentucky side of the river, and therefore beyond our jurisdiction.
