Lexington. Deo. 6. Frederick Dunlap Barker, 46 years old, a bachelor and recluse, was found murdered In his house on the Lynch farm, eight miles from Lexington on the Todd's Pike, late this afternoon. An automatic pistol, was found by his side on the bed, but none of Its bullets had been discharged.

The only wound had been inflicted by a lead bullet, which entered Barker's back and lodged In his chest. Barker's pistol used steel-jacket bullets. FrunS Barker, who wondered why his brother had not appeared for work, found the body after breaking Into the house, which was locked. The body, fully dressed, was lying on a bed which had not been occupied. Coroner John Anglin said there Is no doubt tl.e farmer was murdered, but whether the crime was committed outside of the house and the victim carried iriside, or took place indoors, could not be determined.

Nor could it be determined how long he had been dead. The house was locked from the inside, but no keys could be found, which is a point baffling the authorities. It is possible, they say. that Barker was killed by a shot fired through a window. One pane was broken.

Barker had no enemies, according to his brother. Sheriff Rodes-and deputies went to the house tonight.
