A Serious Charge Singleton Frank
lin, copper-colored negro man about 30
years of age, was brought here by officer
Hammond ON Wednesday night, under
commitment from Justice f. Il. Murphy, of
Spenccrville, this county, charged with COM
hitting rape upon his 12-year-old daugh-
ter, Annie Franklin. The act is alleged to
have been committed about two weeks ago
on the public road while father and daugh-
ter were on their way to camp meeting.
The girl states that when the attack was
made she screamed and made all the resist
ance in her power, and persons in the neigh
borhood remember hearing screams at the
time but paid no particular attention to
them. AS soon as possible thereafter the
victim told her mother of the affair and
complaint was made TO Justice of the
Peace, who issued warrant for the arrest
Of the father. There is considerable excite
ment in the vicinity of Spencervile over the
affair and fears were expressed that the Of
ficer would not be able to reach here with
his prisoner on account Of lynchcrs.
