mon insulted n white woman, who
was on her way homie from a neigh

the show was out. When they called
to her to stop, chat they wanted to
see her." she yelled murder, SO fran
tically, that it brought 10 her assisi
lance, Chas. X, Simpson, who took
charge of her and seen her home.
The gentleman at whose house she
was staying, on learning what had
taken place, went out in search Of
the villains, and could he have found
the right party would have made it
a sorry insult for him, as it was he
used one Of the supposed villains
pretty roughly, and a word from the
scoundrel would, in all probability,
ended him. No man, be he white or
black, should be tolerated in the COM

on the streets, ut night. If there is
any more of it, Judge Lynch may
take hand.
