When the train reached Wilmington
Raisen, accompanied by John Davis,
colored local preacher. and another man,
took seats in the front part of the smoker
where the seats faced. There was one
vacant place Griggs staggered in and
took It, Preacher Davis had a post hole
spade, a heavy iron implement. As soon
as Griggs took his seat he picked up the
spade and began tearing the paper off
and throwing it around the feet of
Raisen. The three negroes took it in
good part. and were very much amused.
They then became engaged in earnest
conversation and paid no more attention
to Griggs While they were looking at
some objects outside, the Marshallton man
drew a match and set fire TO the paper
that he had piled around Raisen's
flames went up Raisens legs TO the
knees The startled negro gave jump,
and stamped out the fire, while Griggs
laughed heartily. This nettled Raisen
and he tried TO strike his troublesome
companion Griggs grasped the heavy
post spade and made lunge at the
negro Everybody in the car rushed for
ward. and whites as well as blacks as
sisted Raiscn 10 disarm him.
Tho two men then clinched. Raisen
shook himself loose, and as Grggs
staggered back, administered TO him q
powerful blow i'm the face that cut a
cash aud knocked the white man silly.
After this chastisement Griggs kept a
safe distance from Raisen, who showed
no inclination TO be quarresome or TO
follow up his advantage.
The negroes left the train at Stanton.

was afraid lie left the train at Ruthby
