which was recovered, except about 8

had eaten for breakfast. He left the

the law, but wished counsel, which
could not be Immediately obtained, and
consequently the trial was postponed I'M
til the next day. He was placed in the
hands Of officer Hill, who was to guard
HIM until the time set for trial. Hill,
becoming tired of being confined to one
place, proposed to the negro that they
walk down the railroad n short distance
for recreation. When about to return,
the negro struck Mr. Hill and made his
escape. Mr.. Hill ran him about three
hundred yards and caught him. The
negro resented, and Hill cut him with
small pocket-kniic, in or ON the side Of

knife, and made his escape. Up to this
