OllSSs anu SudTley OndW, were out look
ing for man named Hulsey. They were
in the vicinity of Mr. D. NJ. Warren's,
about five miles south of Marietta. When
they came to Mr.. Warren's store, they
noticed that the window was raised. This
looked suspicious and they concluded to
investigate. Mr.. Hicks handed bis pistol
to Mr.. Shaw end told him to stand guard,
while he went for Mr. Warren. He hadn't
gone far when bang went the pistol. A
negro had bolted from the store and the
crowd commenced shooting at him, and
went in hot pursuit. After running aoout
a half mile, Mr.. Shaw caught the negro,
who began fierce attack upon Mr.. Shaw
There was one load left in the pistol but
Mr.. Shaw didn't know it, but he hit the
negro over the heal with the pistol in self
defense. Mr.. Howard Barber came up
about this time, when the pistol fired, the
ball striking Mr.. Barber in the calf of the
right leg, making flesh wound, but they
held on to the negro and brought him back.
He turned out to be Oscar Herring, who
lived in the neighborhood. He said. that
his brother, Weyman, was in the store with
him. While the crowd was after Oscar
his brother stepped quietly out of the store
and went home. He was arrested at his
fathers house and owned up. The two
burglars were brought to town and placed
in Jail, and Mr.. Barber came to town and
had DR.. Tennent 20 cut the ball out of his
leg A visit to the store revealed the fact
that the negroes were getting some goods
together to carry off, hut we're ioiled by
discovery.
