i few days since man named VIM. May
bin, living In Fasmlngton township, went IA
the house Of q neishbor nnme1 Francis Han
son, and told him some OF his ia1nl1y wanted Ia
sec him. Hanson went to Naybln's house and
inquired what was wanted Of him. He was
charged with circulating reports against the
character Of daughter Of Maybin, q youn:g,
girl about sixteen years old. This be denied,
Wheu Ezekiel Maybln, q son Of Wm. ",
call his sister liar, or he would whip him.
The vile Of the old man then seized pan Of
hot water md dashed the water in IIanson's
facc, and a1so. struck him on the head with
the pan, scaldshg him in terrible manner
and cutting severe cash in his head. He
with difficulty made his escape from the
house and went home
Complaint was made before Esq. Stearns,
of this city, and warrants issued Tor the ar-
rest OF Wn. Alaybin and vile, Eliza J. May
blu, Ezekiel Maybfn. and q yuung man named
Robt+ Taggert. They were al arrested ex-
cept Taggert, who, at this writing, Is still at
liberty. As Hanson was not able 70 appear
here, the Justice held court ut rs house,
where the facts, as stated abore, were eacl:ed,
with the following:
Harsou and Taggert had both visited the
girl, and reports were circulated about her,
winch were charged upon Hanson. Evidently
plot was fixed upon to get him to the house
and force him to take back the reports, or do
him bodily injury. E. MaybIn and Taygcrt
we're outside the house when Hanson went IN,
but were called IN By the old woman, Hc
denied circulating the reports, and the mothar
and eon acted as given above. It did not
appear that Taegcrt did anything at the time,
either to aid OF prevent the Outrage.
The old man was not present. The Justine,
from the evidence, believed the act to have
been the result Of plot, in which they were
au concerned, and held the threr Naybins to
bail In the sum Of $500 each for their appear
auce At the next term of court.
Hanson will recover from his injuries, but
it il considered probable that he will lose the
sight Of one eye. Much indignation l. ex-
pressed against the perpetrators Of the most
diabolica1 net We ever heard OF.
