The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1888-10-11

An old farmer, with two little mules
hitched to his wagon, brought four heavy
bales of cotton at one load to the city last
Friday. Upon being asked how it was
that he could pull such a big load with
such little mules, he replied that the road
leading from his home to the city had
been worked strictly according to the
Murray Road Law. During the same
conversation this farmer said that there
were three things our people could well
do without, viz: the Clemson Bequest,
the Farmers Movement and the Indian
Doctor.

Trial Justice Wardlaw issued a warrant
at 4 late hour last Saturday night for the
arrest Of Lawrence Harris, young white
man Of Brushy Creek Township, who is
charged with assault and battery of high
and aggravated nature. It seems for some
time past young Harris has been paying
attention to Miss Hammond, a daughter
of Mr. D. II. Hammond, who lives at
Piercetown. The young lady, however,
did not receive the attention Of Harris
very favorably, but this did not deter him
from continuing his visits. He would
visit the young lady's home frequently,
but she treated him with more indifer-
ence every visit he made. This worried
Harris, and it seems he determined to
have revenge in some way or another.
Last Saturday evening Harris came to
the home of the young lady, but she, with
several friends, had just left and we're on
their way to church, a short distance away.
Harris, who was riding horseback, started
off in pursuit, and in few minutes spied
the young lady and her friends walking
along the road. Harris started off in
gallop, and, riding up to the party. ran
his horse over the young lady, who was
knocked down and so badly bruised that
she had to be carried home. Her injuries
are not serious. Up to Tuesday night
Harris had elnded arrest, but every effort
is being made to catch him.
