The Gold Hill Ncms says: Late last
Thursday night n miner, known as
"Chris," was walking up from Silver
City, a little under the influence OF
liquor. A man sprang from the side Of
the road with the evident intention of
stopping and robbing him. Chris
didn't want any of that, so he whipped
out a bowie knife and made a slash
at the footpad, cutting the clothes
across the fellows abdomen, but not
drawing blood. The thief waited for
no more, but darted off into the dark
