and Mr.. Ward, the manager. 1t seems

ments OH some of the farming imple-
ments, also a cow, and with others
went to take possession, when they en-
countered a negress who is employed
as cook. The negress not having a
razor took the next best weapon, a
pitchfork, and started in to help Mr.
Ward by jabbing Mr.. Shaw in the side
and another man in the arm with it.
Mr.. Shaw became very sick, it being
necessary to send to Caldwell for DR..
Ed. E. Maxey, who on arriving there
examined their wounds and found
them not serious. Mr.. Ward and the
negress will be arrested.
