ment is that man and his wife, of the name
of Bell, were arrested few days before, ct
that place, on a charge Of theft. but nothing
was proved conclusively against th'm, tho
for some reason they were still held in con-
fuement at the Justices house. On the 4 h
instant a mob came to the house. seized and
locked up the justice. and then took Bell aud
his wife to the woods. By threats of pun
ishment they endeavored to extort II cUntes-
sion Of guilt from them, but failing in this
they hanged the man, until he WAS apparent
ly dead, and then buried him in shallow
grave, though knowing that he was still alive.
The wife, they supposed, would be 50 intimi-
dated by the apparent death of the husband.

ately, but she still maintained their limo
cenee. She, then. WAS hanged by the same
rope from which her husband had just been
cut down. and was left hanging, as he had
been, till she became insensible. The hus-
band was then taken from his living grave,
aad both. with much difficulty resuscitated.
and left to find their way home. For an
outrage so Infamous and so cruel, strange to
say no arrests had been made.
