The facts in the attempted kill

remarkable. The would-be assas-
sin vas Rolls Nicks, an adopted
son, aged thirteen, and his accom-.
plice Albert Bell, colored, aged
twelve. The negro boy borrowed
a gun and furnished the ammuni.
ton to Rollie, with whom he had
an agreement to kill his (negro's)
father for a hog. RolIie lay in
wait four miles from the house for
the father, and shot him as he
vas passing, but as the bushel
were SO thick, he says he could not
get a fair pull, and only wounded
him in the arm. While the wound
was being dressed, he ran three
miles through the woods and lay
in wait again, this time putting
eleven ~buckshOt in Nick's back.
While a friend of Nicks went for
help, ROllie came out, helped his
father up, and took the horse our
of the wagon and went for q doc
tor. The negro boy COD fessed
and both were Jailed; no motive
known. Rev. Nicks is very low
