Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.I
SUTHERLIN, VA, July 20, 1877.
Our community and the people around us
in the country have been very much eX-
cited by the escape OF one OF the convicts,
who gave the guards the slip and was at
large about twenty-four hours. Aliberal
reward stimulated. the search for the run
away, and he was captured yesterday MORN
ing on the south side of Dan river by Mr..
Alex Hamlet. John Davis, negro who
supplied the convict with citizens cloth
ing, was arrested and is now in custody.
We are having fine rain, which comes
in good time for the tobacco and corn crops,
as both had been suffering for several days.
Work on our new railroad, the "Milton
and sutherlin. narrow gauge" is going on
steadily. Nearly one half the grading has
been done, and the bridge over Dan river
will be built in short time. SCALPEL.

of the throng. The moderation dis
played by tho citizens, with the exA
ception of the above incident, was
partly due to the fact that through
out the day and BY common consent
all saloon keepers closed their places;
otherwise serious consequences would
undoubtedly have ensued. The COR
oner's jury found that the murder of

All Jim and another Chinaman, un-
known. Sargent was an old and re,
