ed on the revolving charge of attempt
ed criminal assault upon Amelia Eliz-
abeth Richards, bis 1S-year-old daugh-
ter. -" ~ ~
THE. PARTIEs ARE WHITE.
Justice Thomas 2. Iarus was noti-
lied of the case Wednesday by citizens
of the county, who informed him that
feeling was very strong against Rich
ards and a lynching might result from
the charges made by the girl unless
some action was taken in the matter
at once by the officials. ..l o
A MAGISTRATES INVESTIGATION.
'The magistrate set out to investigate
the affair and at a late hour last night
found the girl at the house OF a Mr..
Jack, on the Charles City road, about
II miles from the city.
She ran away from home last Satur-
day and went TO Mr.. Hill A. Carter's
place where she told the story of the
inhuman treatment she had received
at the hands of her father. She was
subsequently taken TO the home of
Mr.. Jack by the pastor of Glendale
church. When the news of the affair
became noised abroad in the neighbor-
hood considerable excitement prevail
ed, and it is said that threats were
made against Richards. Justice Guy
was asked to issue a warrant against
the man.
TRYING TO COVER UP THE CRIME.
The magistrate summoned Richards
| to appear before him last Tuesday.
| The examination resulted in the dis
/ charge of the accused. This, it appears
| failed TO satisfy the people living in
the vicinity of Richards farm, which
is about five miles below the city, and
they determined that the charges
made by the young girl should be full
ly Investigated.
ANOTHER JUSTICE ACTS STRANGELY.
Justice G. @. Vincint was applied to
for warrant, but declined TO issue it.
| The case was then laid before Justice
Larus, who, upon hearing the story,
considered it worthy of inquiry. He
spent. all of Wednesday night, May
Sth, in making an Investigation and
I returned about o'clock the next
? morning.
The warrant was issued and placed
in the hands of Constable Cyclone .
/ Samuel. The constable found Rich
5 ards at home and took him to the
) | Courthouse where he was committed
for hearing at u o'clock, noon, Fri
day 10th inst.
The examination resulted in Rich.
ards being sent on to the grand jury.
