A Stolen Ride.

Some unknown parties borrowed
Mr.. D. A. Richardson's faithful
horse, "NelIie,@ last Friday night.
The alarm was given Saturday morn
ing, and party started in search.
The trail was easily followed in the
direction of Columbia. When the
party reached the home of Mr..
Ambrose Wing gard, inquiry was
made, and it was learned that a horse
had been taken up by a negro just
below his house. It proved to be
Nellie. The general supposition is
that some sccundrel was passing
through en- route for Columbia, ard
preferred to ride rather than walk
Nellie being Of kind disposition,
answe ed the purpose exactly, and
she was ridden to the bridge, and
then turned lose, and was making
her way home when stabbed by the
negro. A good strong lock now
fastens most of the stable doors
around White Rock.
