A fourteen-year-old son of Mr..

dent OF Mecklenburg, was killed on
the big red hill, near the depot, in
Concord Saturday evening. The
boy and his father were thrown
from a wagon, and the wheels
passed over the boy cutting open
his breast, and tearing his lungs
apart. Mr.. Mclaughlin works on a
farm near Patterson's mill, belong

There is a peculiar fatality attached
to this hill. On its slopes, several
years ago, the outlaw, Ford Knox
shot and killed a man; about the
same time, negro boy was killed at
the base of the hill by pair of
runaway mules belonging to Mr..
A. B. Young, and later on, in an &C.
