It is known here that shortly before

to pardon the negroes in Pickeus county
under sentence Of death for lynching a

ANOTHER FlENDISH CRIME.
Something Must 'bc Denc az once
suarIcs Peyton Burns Down His Own
House.


Especial 10 the Timcs.l
FREDEucKsBURG VA. May 29.-The
people of King George county are
greatly astir over the act Of Charles
Peyton. who burned his dweling-house
last night, which he was unlawfully
occupying. 1t seems that the sheriff.
Mcdaniel. had a writ of possession from
the court to restore the property in
question 10 its owner. When the
sheriff went on the premises to
execute this writ Peyton re
fused to surrender, but presented
his shotgun. saying he would shoot If
the sheriff persisted. So extreme was
the wrath of Peytou that he followed
the sheriff some distance from the
house, threatening to kill hlm. The
sheriff applied for a posse, which he OBJ
tanned, to assist him in making the ar
rest of Peyton, and also a warrant for
him. but before he could reach the
dwelling of Peyton he had set fire toit,
and the whole, including furniture,
was totally destroyed, with no insur-
ance. Peyton is in Jail in King George,
and has acknowledged his crime.
Late this evening Mr.. Franklin Nc
Whirter. living a short distance from
this city, was here in search Of physl-
clan to attend his daughter. between
fourteen and fifteen years of age, who
hal complained 20 her father that a
negro man had feloniously assaulted
her. 1t seems that the young girl had
gone visiting a short distance from Mr..
McWhuter's house. and IN the back
