What's the Matter With Her!

Foreston's s ANIMAL August sensation came
of on schedule time last Thursday night
It will be remembered, that our courts have
had the matter Of investigating the charge
OF heinous crimes upon the person Of a
Mrs. George Richbourg, who lives short
distance from the peaceable town Of For
eston; the result of these Investigations
were, that negro was convicted and sent
to the penitentlary for q term of years,
not upon the evidence adduced, but because
the fellow was triitiing chap. and on
general principles he went up. In that
trial the testimony showed that whoever
molested Mrs. Richbourg, if she was mo-
Tested, did not succeed in their horrible
purpose, and the most that could be made
of the case, was an attempt to commit the
crime This is the case which created con-
siderable excitment, and the one in which
lynching WAS threatened, and would have
been carried out, had it not been for the
doubt which existed among the good peo-
pie OF the community where the crime was
alleged tc have been committed.
One year later, the same woman, was
again in the court, as the victim of m al
legged outrage, but this time, the evidence
showed the crime had been committed, and
although circumstantial, it was woven
around one Ed. Meyers, who recently died
in the State prison; he was convicted,
with a rccommen datlou to melcv, and the
judge sent him TO the penltentlury for life.
Notwithstanding the conviction WAS had,
there must have been 8 doubt, even IL the
Jury room, or no negro proven to have
committed such u dastardly crime upon a
white woman, would have gotten Oft with
g. recommendation to mercy.
Now the month Of August has come again
and with it, comes this same Mrs. Rich
boarg with her troubles: she creates sen.
sation among the neighborS, with her an
nuaI report of another attempt upon her
bya negro. This time her supposed as
saiiant does not get any nearer than four
steps OF her and by having pistol handy
she succeeds in defending herself. Ihe
story as given Us is as follows: Ga last
Thursday night Mrs George Richbourg was
standing in her door, and she saw negro
approaching, she went back into the house
got pistol, came out, and as the negro
came towards her she attempted to fire, bu
the pistol snapped. Agaia she fired OIL
him when he was about four steps away
this time she got her gun oil. and the fel
low wheeled, hollered and tell; on seeing
her would-be assaillaut where she coulC
huadle him, she went to the wood-pile t
get an ak to knock him in the head, bU
when she returned, the fellow had crawled
off through some pea-viues, leaving tral
of blood behind him, and by this bloody
