was awakened from his sleep by hearing
noise on his premises. and on getting
up and going to his door found that
some parties were attempting to rob his

his gun. and advanced cautiously to.
wards the smoke-house, when he discoy.
cred man seated on = pry on which
rested one end of tho building. Taking
aim, he fired, and the party fell to the
ground mortally wounded. On exami-
nation Mr.. Meekins discovered him to
be negro. and, further, that by the
building falling back It had crushed to
death four other negroes who had crept
under the raised part, and were engaged
in abstractipg the contents. Mr.. Meek
ms at once reported the circumstance
