A Dangerous Negro.


A dastardly affair took place at a
festival of the John F. Slater Lodge
l. o. o. F., cOlored, last Friday night.
Several intoxicated negroes, who were
rather boisterous during the evening
became instigated in a quarrel. VIM.
Hollis, dangerous character, there
upon produced pistol and began to
threaten the life of Bob Richardson,
using his weapon recklessly.
A warrant was issued for his arrest
and was Immediately taken in charge
by constable B. V. Weldon. A search
was then made, trailing him to the
house of Alex Brown, colored, about
two miles from town, where he was
found sleeping. Mr.. Weldon then
proceeded to place the hand cuffs on
MIN, after reading the warrant, and
succeeded In getting one wrist fastened.
Ihe culprit seemed to be very COM
posed when told he was a prisoner and
accented by saying ''alI right boss"
Out before the constable could get the
other hand fastened he had reached
back, pulled out his revolver and had
It pointed at his breast. Mr.. Weldon
took in the situation Immediately.
knowing too we'll that he had no time
to procure his "seven shooter" from his
hip pocket, so he instantly grabbed
the hand of the culprit, (who by this
time had snapped the pistol, but for.
tunately on blank cartridge,) to ar
rest the pistol from his possession. A
mastery struggle ensued. He man
aged to get the pistol away and throw
1t aside, and then used his efforts to
bring him to time. The negro then
struck him a terrible blow with his
handcutted hand, smashing his specta-
cles into fragments and cutting his
face severely. He began to use ali the
brute force IN his power to iniure the
constable during the melee, by biting
ms hand severely and piece about as
pig as walnut out of his side. Mr..
Weldon called on three negro occu.
pants of the house, in the name of the
state, to assist him but they utterly re.
fused The constable daZed by the
blow and other injuries became too
weak to manage the brutal negro, so
the latter succeeded in making his es-
cape into an adjoining swamp.
Mr.. Weldon returned to SMYRNA and
after posse had been organized, thew
started in search of the negro, but re-
turned later with out any success.
The matter is in the hands of the law.
and since other towns have been put
on the watch it is hoped this dangerous
character will be captured and Sc.
verely dealt with.
He is about % years of age, verv
able bodied and strong, and has a bad
reputation in this vicinity. At this
writing the fugitive has not been
caught
