Cincinnati (OH) Daily Gazette, September 21, 1867, p. 3. COLD-BLODDED MURDER A Colored Man Killed at Salem, Indiana, Rebel Atrocities Not Yet Ended [From the New Albany Commercial]-We have received from Salem the particulars of a cold-blooded murder at that place that adds another instance to the many barbarities inflicted upon the unfortunate negro race. Alexander White, a quiet old colored man, was murdered there last Saturday evening at half past seven o'clock under the following circumstances: It is supposed that he went to church on the evening mentioned and his presence was objected to by certain persons who attempted to drive him away. The same attempt had been made on the week previous. The old man was heard talking with his supposed murderers some distance from the Christian Church a short time before the murder, and cries of murderer were heard distinctly by the citizens of the village. On the citizens collecting on the spot, the body of the old man was found weltering in blood with the blade of a dagger still sticking in his heart and a wound upon his head as from a blow with some blunt instrument. An inquest has been held upon the body, and suspicion rests upon a person not a permanent resident of the town and an accomplice not known. The persons have left the neighborhood, one leaving a strong thread of circumstantial proof against him, part of which is a suit of rebel clothing, he having been a refugee from some southern state. The knife with which the murder was committed has been identified as belonging to the refugee. This refugee and rebel soldier is undoubtedly the murderer, but he most likely had an accomplice.
