We are indebted to the kindness of our
obliging and efficient Sheriff +. w. K. Nance
for the following list of the criminal cases TO
be tried. We believe the defendants In each
of the cases is now confined in jail.
Walker Derrick, awaiting sentence.
Williams Haskin, assault and battery.
John L Williams, breaking railroad car.
Nancy Calhoun having in possession stolen
goods.
Ellis Simonds. housebreaking.

John Heard, house breaking.
Essick Harrison, burglary and larceny.
Andrew H: Pressly. assault and battery.
Marcus Lukewise, assault and battery.
James Franklin. unlawfully shooting and
oscar Miles, throwing rocks at cars.
Sam Lee, larceny from the field.
WAITING FOR THE DEATH TRAP.
The first named-Walker Derrick-is under
conviction OF murder. His appeal having
been dismissed. he now has only to wait for
tne sentence OF deatn 10 De passed upon ulll
and the day named for his execution. He
was convicted of murder on circumstantial
evidence. He had friends in Georgia who
put up the money to secure an appeal to the
Supreme Court. but the effort failed. The
deed OF which he was convicted was most
atrocious one. He and his victim loved the
same woman. The woman preferred to mar
ry his rival. The next night while the bride
was sitting on the knee of her husband Wal
ker Derrick shot the husband to death
wounding the wife at the same time. The
shot was made through the open door Of
their cabin. No one actually saw the fatal
shot, but the circumstances pointed unmis
takably to Derrick Walker, and the jury con-
victed him. He will likely pay the penalty
with his own life.
