The DISTURBANCE AT HENDERSON
We have learned the particulars of
the disturbance that occurred at Hen
derson last Sunday, which are sub
stantially as follows:
A negro teacher, by the name of
Ninion,. had been to Church, and on
his return he passed by the calaboose,
or lookup, where several negroes
were kept ins confinement. Seeing
one with whom he was acquainted, he
spoke to him, asking him how he was
doing. He was answered by the ne
gro ia confinement. after which he
moved along, A policeman standing
near spoke to- Ninions and asked,
: What are you doing here, hanging
around this ealaboose?" Ninion an
swered that he was not hanging
around, but was simply passing, and
had inquired after the health of a
friend he had In the lookup The
policeman then began cursing him,
and ordered him to leave, lats the same
time threatening him Ninion replied
that the was in a public highway,
and that he had done nothing wrong,
had not disturbed any one, nor did he
wish to dogso.a He would, therefore,
not go till he got ready, as he did not
feel disposed to be driven along the
street. The policeman then made
an assault upon the negro, attempting
to strike him on the head with walk
ing stick The negro parted the blows
as well as he could, but was at last
felled to the earth On rising he
caught up arbricky which he threw at
the policeman, and continued to fight
as best he could, followed up by the
policeman, who in the meanwhile had
received a pistol from some one who
was near By this time large num-
Der of persons had congregated, and
the policeman threatend to shoot
Ninion Finding that he was over
powered, he gave himself up, and was
locked Gin the calabposesq Our ins
formant says that this occurred at the
time the negroes werefreturning from
church, and that there was o partieu-
slar indications of a riot on the part of
the negroes at any time. Some of
them did express theirtopinions about
the cruel treatment the negro teacher
had received at the hands of the po-
1iceman3 which was all that was done
by them. For this expression of opin-
ion, five or six of the negroes we're
at once taken up and locked in the
Gala boose: The above we got from an
eye witness. Our informant says that
all the trouble grew out Of the diff
Guilty between the negro and the po-
liceman, as above stated We do not
pretend to justify impotence in ne
groes, but certainly they have right
to pass along the street without being
cursed by every white skinned man
who chooses to place himself on a
level with them. IF they violate the
laws they ought to be punished, but
so long as there is such hatred to-
wards that unfortunate race, as there
is in some parts of the country, these
disturbances will occur.
