CAPTURE OF A RAPER.
The Negro Who Outraged Mrs. Howell
Arrested near BGOuntVIIIe.

- BLOUNTvILLE, June Is, 1879.
| Mr.. EDITOR: Last night, abou
one mile from our town, party o
gentlemen from Hawkins county, ar
rested, by the aid of some parties from
this place, a cOlOred man supposed &c
| be the one who committed the rape
upon a lady at Strawberry fIalps,
| some DAYS since, an account OF winch
apDeared in the CHRONICLE al ne e
time The gentlemen, Deputy SheTlH
! nrkes oud his two brothers, VINO
| rnsde tbe arrest, had been following
the man for several days. He fills the
description given in the CHRONICLE
of the demon that committed Inc
| deed, but he stcuuy denied knowing
ANYTHING of the affair, but his denials
nnfv lead to establish his guilt, for he
denied having committed the rape be-
fore anyone had told him for what be
was arrested. The party at once set
out for the scene of the outrage, where
his identity can be established or dis
proved.
Harvest is on hand throughout the
county; the crop is light, but of good
quality. Oats q straightsout failure.
Corn clean and of good color, and not
damaged by the drOuth. Our people
take no interest in the coming election
upon the State debt, but / believe that
a msjority will vote for the so 4 COM
promise.
Sullivan will be largely represented
at the Fourth OF July demonstration
at your city, if the railroad rates are
cut to fit the cash on hand.

FROM ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT.
BLoUNTvILLE June IS, 1879.
Mr.. EDITOR: The negro man who
was reported in the daily CHRoN!CLE
of June 18th. as having committed
a rape upon the person of Mrs. SailIe
Howell, near strawberry Plains, was
captured last night near BlOuntvllle,
by Deputy Sheriff Dykes, of HaW-
kins county, assisted by w. f. Null
lennix, John II. Cate and William
Rogers, of this place. His name Is
Lynch. He and a yellow man passed
town eastward last evening,
and were found asleep at the house OF
another colored man of his own name. |
He was not armed. He, in effect, con-
fessed his guilt. He was taken on to |
Hawkins county. The other man was
not errested. Nj. P.
