GREENSBORO.
James Young was very seriously in
jured, one day week before last, by be-
ing run over by a wagon loaded with
butter. He was at the depot with a
load in company with two or three 9TH
ers, who were standing by their teams
while train was making up, when the
engine gave two or three short whistles,
startling one of the teams whose owner
had left alone. Mr.. Young sprang to
their heads, but was struck in his side
by the pole and thrown down, the load
passing over his back and hip. The
horses ran out upon the track, spilling
out some of the butter and doing good
deal of damage to the load, some of the
butter being thrown entirely from the
tubs. Mr.. Smead of Albany, we believe,
was the owner of the team.
On complaint of 7. G. Batchelder to
the States Atty, warrant was issued
against G. w. Mansey for breaking into
his (Batchelder store, on the week of
the Barton Fair, as was reported in the
MONITOR week or two since. Mansey
was arrested by Sheriff Patterson at Bar
net, and brought to Greensboro, We'd
nesday night of week before last. A
hearing was had before Justice Goss, on
the following Thursday, resulting in a
committal. He was put under one thou
sand dollar bonds, but not being able to
furnish them, was committed to Iras-
burgh Jail to await trial. He attempted
to throw the responsibility of the affair
upon Orrin Stevens of Stannard, and
Stevens was arrested, but upon Mansey's
own statement, which was so improbable,
, Stevens was discharged.
