 A. Byrd, of near McD aniel. sold con. siderable cotton Friday, for which he received about S5l5. The bulk of this sum he deposited for safe keeping, re- taining only enough to settle with his hands" One of these, Frank Gui- don negro. was aware that Byrd had made the sale, and, along with others. received his wages. Presumably, Gui- don thought Byrd had the balance of the money with him. and planned to make haul. To accomplish this he did not stop at the thoughts of mur- der. Some time during the fore part of the night Byrd was called to the door of bis home, and when he opened it he met the glistening barrel of the would. be assassin's revolver. Quncker than thought he struck the pistol upward, but for which instructive action he would now be corpse. The negro pulled the trigger, but the bullet, otherwise the means of most foul murder. spent it's force in the timbers of the house, and MT. Byrd is to be congratulated on the narrow escape. Gnidon fled, and is still at large. We have just received copy of the Air Ship Waltz" by Isaac Doles. Indianapolis, Ind.
