Native Virginian June 5, 1868
Herndon. -It turns out on the testimony of a physician who examined the body, that 
the womb of the murdered woman was cut out within two inches of the meatus 
externus by a sharp instrument, and, together with the unborn infant was devoured 
by the hogs. The case is too terrible to dwell upon. Herndon remains in Jail, and 
is said by those who have visited him to be very cool and confident. His trial 
will take place in August. We are told that Mrs. Herndon has been confined since 
her husband's incarceration. A few nights ago, he tried to break jail, but was 
frustrated.
