A SENSATION.
TARBORO GREATLY EXCITED.
SPIRIT RAPPINGS :

TARBoRo. y. c., April lst, 1890.
For several days much exciting
interest has been felt IN our town
over the startling ramon OF spirit
ualism in our midst; the house on
Main street near the Tar River
bridge, occupied by Mr.. r. II,
Shaw, being the centre of attrac-
ton.
Last Thursday the Misses Shaw
went up stairs to their room and
Immediately upon entering the
room a strange rapppiDg was heard
upon the wall, appearing TO be
between the plastering and the
weather boarding. Friday night
the same mysterious rapping was
again discovered, which so fright>
ened the young ladies that Mr.,
Shaw went 10 the room to make an
investigation. By chance Mr.. Shaw
made the remark, or requested, that
it knock louder. which 1t did with
quick response. He requested that
it knock still louder which was
promptly done.
Then several questions were asked
and requested that the affirmative
answers be given by raps, which was
done to every question. The mum Der
of Mr.Shaw's family was given, that
of the living and dead, the age OF
Mrs. Shaw and two of the Misses
