proves true, it is doubtful il any ar
rests will be made, as many witnesses
will testify the officer was attacked by
and abused by him from the time he
first ment the negro. The negro was
using profane language and other
wise creating disturbance. Officer
Turner says the negro was much larg-
or than he, but he succeeded in get
ting him as far as DR.. Beatty's resi-
dence. Then the negro refused to go
any further, and before Turner knew
it, the negro hit him several tim cs in
the face, knocking him down. Getting
up, Turner closed with the prisoner,
and they fought most Of the way up
to Will Carver's residence. When
this corner was reached, the negro
struck him in the face again and he
started to run. Officer Turner says
that it was at this juncture that he
started to draw his gun. As he made
q movement to draw it the weapon was
discharged. The negro cried that he
was shot, and ran SO fast that it was
impossible for the officer to recapture
him.
