CHARLOTTE. N. c., July 11.-ISpecial.l J.
A terrible tragedy occurred in Lincolnton, N.
c., to-day. in which some Of the most promi-
nent young men of the town were involved.
Sam Motz was instantly killed, Bob
Michael, son OF Colonel W. II. Michael, was
wounded in the left leg and Charlie Motz
probably fatally wounded.
The trouble originated some three weeks
ago, when Miss Maggie Motz. handsome
young woman of Lincolnton. gave birth to a
child. The unfortunate infant happily died.
THE PREACHER SUSPECTED.
Miss Motz has been for some time singer
in the meeting of Evangelist Fife. and the un-
charitable at once charged the preacher with
the paternity of the child. This was insin-
uated publicly but the character of the evan
gelist was saved by the declaration OF the
young woman, while lying on her SICK bed
that the preacher was innocent, and that a
Young man named Bob Michael was the
guilty one. Michael occupies high position
in Lincolnton society and IS the son of
wealthy and influential man OF the county
and a prominent member of the Presbyterian
Church.
REFUSED TO MARRY HER.
II is said that the father of Miss Motz sent
word to Bob Michael few days ago tDaI ne
must marry Mss Motz or he would be killed
This he refused TO do, and it is further stated
in this refusal he has the endorsement or his
father 1t is also said that he bitterly denied
the paternity Of Miss MOTIFS child. However
that may be. it 50 happened that Bob Michael
and Sam Motz, the latter cousin OF the un-
fortunate girl and son of Cable Mott, yes
terday started out in buggy for trip TO the
country.
FIRED UPON FROM AMBUSH.
They had gone mile from town when fired
upon suddenly by three men who, were con-
cealed in the woods, as they approached. These
men proved t. be Charlie. John and Caldwell
Motz. brother of the unfortunate Maggie
MotZ. a country belle and the sweet singer of
Mr.. Flies eyangeistic meetings. The men
were armed with shot-guns. which were loaded
with buckshOt.
SHOT THROUGH THE HEART.
Sam Mott, their cousin, fell dead. shot
through the heart with seven buckshOt.
Michael was wounded in the arm and foot,
but. through strange fatality. escaped deadly
wounds. He drew a revolver. which, ct is
said, he has been carrying since the demand
was made upon him to marry Miss MOtz. and
answered the FIRE OF the Mott brothers. his
shot inflicted a wound upon Charley Mott.
He was shot in the breast. and, from MS con-
diton, it is thought he will die The greatest
excitement prevails over the ilar.
