AUGUSTA, Ca, July Saturday last
plantation of Angus Red, in Barnwell
county, South Carolina, about twelve miles
below Augusta, on the Savannah river.
Arriving at Reds residence, the party fired
a volley into it, killing Thomas A. Lowe,
and seriously wounding Red and his wife
and mother. After disarming Red, the
negroes returned to Paul F. Hammonds
plantation, when a deputy sheriff tried to
arrest them, but without success, as they re-
fused to disarm. The negroes, however,
promised to 90 to Aiken and stand an in
vestigation.
One of the parties implicated was arrested
here this evening. His version is that Red
and Lowe attempted to chastise colOred

former. The colored man escaped from
them and returned with an armed band
who did the shooting by way of retaliation.

himself as a school teacher and says he was
on his way to Aiken to deliver himself up to-
the authorities
