the back yard at IIok Gland, the residence of
Mr.. Wilton Greenway, near IIavre de Grace,
and engaged in conversation with one Of the
servants. After talking to him for awhile she
suddenly remembered that she had left the

it she closed the door behind her. To her
surprise, upon entering the dining-room, she
found another negro in the room busily en-
gagged in packing up such articles as he could
lay his hands upon. Disregardng his threats,
the girl gave vent to several lusty screams,
which had the effect of attracting the atten
ton of the workmen, who were in the barn,

weapons, they rushed to her assistance. The

workmen on horseback. He lost sight of
them, however, in deep cut near Havre de
