The Murderous Assault On Mr.. Fee.

In our last, we casually mentione,
that IN attack had been made on Mr.
Oven Fee. At that time we wer'
not Informed rs to the real facts II
the case. From what we have sine,
learned from those who have inves'
tigated the matter. we think 1t on,
of the most dastardly attacks on
defenceIess, unoffending man tina
has ever occurred In our county.
The facts as we learn them ar,
briefly these: Some time since Mr.
Fee contracted with some parties t.
thrash bis grain. They came on ant
commenced the job. when MI. Fee
heing dissatified with their work
found fault. They then declared
that they could do no better, and
proposed to leave the job. This wa,
consented to by Mr.. Fee, and the,
removed their machine. A shor
time after, John Morrison aud a Mr.
Leslie went to Fees house and de
manded payment for their work ; a.
Morrison was not known to Mr.. Fee
he declined to pay him without al
order from the elder Mr.. Leslie
They went away apparently satisfied
and he saw no more of either 81
them until Wednesday afternoon o.
last week, when Morrison and Joseph
N. Leslie came to him as he wal
blowing In his field and again de
manded pay. He again declined t.
pay without an order; when Morri
-on got down from his horse, hand
ing the bride to Leslie, and struck
nc Fee with an open knife. Fee
threw up his hand and caught the
blade of the knife i'm his mitten.
and thus escaped the intended blow
The fellow Leslie then said to Nor
rison: Kill him, damn him; kill
him." Morrison then struck Fee on
the side of his head with some blunt
heavy instrument telling him to the
ground and rendering him partially
insehsible and entirely helpless
What passed afterwards. how many
blows he was struck, or what with,
Mr.. Fee does not know. further than
that lac felt the pocket book contain.
ing $l02 IS in money, taken from hi,
pocket while he was lying on tl.s
ground. =
IL is evident from Mr.. Fees APP.
pearanee that he was struck..or kicks
Ell many times after he was felled to
the ground. After the fellows ha.i
robbed and nearly killed him, Nor
risoD remounted his hoise aid
they fled. Mr.. Fee was observed
by his wife and daughters, lying ON
the ground, aud they at once wen,
to him and fourd him covered with
blood aud In al insensible condition.
They assisted him to his house and
placed him In bed where has been
ever since. For several days he hss
lain lowering between life aud aeath.
He Ia row much better, aud will
probably recover.
Mr.. Fee is we'll known to most OF
our citizens as an honest, ssier, In
dustrious, aud u~noffending citizen
and the attack on him has caused moi
n little feeling.
One Of the parties, Joseph N. Les
lie, has been arrested. and 10 now
under $1,000 bonds. Morrison fed,
and up to this date has not been
found.
