The woman was murdered by her husband and sank in the well. He made a confession last evening admitting that he murdered her and gave the details. Hall stated that his wife took a bucket and started to the well. He picked up another bucket and followed her. He kicked her down. She caught with her foot against one side of the well and did not fall entirely in as he expected. He kicked her foot loose, which caused her to fall in the water, but she was still clinging to the rocks to support herself when he struck her on the back of the head with a large rock and fractured her skull. He then took a board that was lying near by and pushed the senseless form under the water and ran away. The reason assigned for the killing is, that the dead woman was the principal witness against her husband in a pistol case now pending in court, and that the murderer wanted his wife out of the way so that he could marry another woman.

(White County) [Date: 9/16/1897, Vol. X, No. 48, Page 8] HAMPTON, GEORGE P.: Memorial Sketch. -- Hon. George P. Hampton was born in Jackson county, tenn., May 8, 1816, and departed this life at his home near New Ark, White county, Sept. 9, 1897. He was a son of William Hampton and his mother's maiden name was Nancy Morgan, daughter of Job Morgan, late of Spring Creek, Overton county. His educational opportunities were limited, but at an early age winning a great thirst for knowledge, he became a student of is uncle Daniel M. Morgan, a baptist minister, under whose training he obtained a reasonably fair english education for that period. In early life he developed those habits of industry that characterized him through life. A practical farmer he was a active worker himself, requiring non of his employees to do more than he did with his own two hands. The write often had occasion to remark that he was the most assiduously industrious man he ever knew, save one, and that one was his teacher, already alluded to. In early manhood he was married to Elizabeth Price, daughter of Geo. Price of he Cross Roads of that name, in one mile of which place he located and spent his life principally in agriculture pursuits, demonstrating clearly the fact that a farmer, by honest toil, may gain a competency and live independent. By this marriage he was blessed with a large family of sons and daughters, all of whom have made honorable citizens. Those who survive him and reside in this section begin with him in his last sickness. The first companion preceded him to the grave some years ago and afterwards married Lucy Dalton, who, as a faithful and loving wife, nursed him in his last sickness, and with his children, grandchildren, and numerous other relatives and friends, mourn his departure. In politics deceased was a whig and afterwards affiliated with the Democratic party so far as he had any political predilections. In 1869 - 70 he represented White county in the Legislature but refused a second nomination, being disgusted with the great amount of "foolishness and waste of time" indulged in by that body has he expressed it. He served his people many years as Justice of the Peace, and his decisions were so eminently just that they were seldom appealed from. In religion he was a primitive Baptist, being a member of the church for many years. In the correctness of his faith he had an abiding confidence, and as is characteristic of members of that denomination, had no compromise to make at any time with what had the least appearance of wrong. Having passed the age of three score and twenty-one, without a murmur of complaint, he yielded to an attack of fever and quietly, and apparently without regret, passed over the river of death, leaving the example of a well spent life for the emulation of those who survive him.
