Ed Chappell, a brother of Edfus Chap
peil got wind of the affair and tied her
daughter to the bed in her room, thus

dramatic love and locksmith incident is
nine miles from Raleigh, in st. Mat

MS TREND who was to aid in the elOp-
ment, waited until late into the night,
there was no chance for Miss Edna to

six YEARS OF SILENCE
Now Griffin Must Stand Trial
For Seduction.
Taken From His Wife and Chdf, in Arkansas
He is Brought to Monroe 10 Face His
Accus Frs in Courts.

Sheriff B. A. Horne, of Union county,
was in the city yesterday adjusting his
account with the State Auditor for a
trip he had taken to Arkansas with a
requisition for E. M. Griffin, a white
man. wanted in Monroe, where he stands
charged with seduction.
Sheriff Horne gives an account of the
charges against Griffin, which are as
follows
six years ago Griffin, then about 20
years old, left Union county for Arkansas.
warrant had been issued for him
charging him with the seduction of a
young woman, Miss Thomas. daughter
of Mr.. Daniel Thomas, who lives near
Marshville, Union county. The young
woman about this time gave birth to a
child. and as the result of it's immediate
death was put on trial for infanticide, but
was acquitted.
Young Griffin went to Arkansas and
there engaged in business. He located
at Eldorado in that State and finally
married we'll. He was successful in
business, and at his home two bright
children came to bless his married life.
All these six years, it is said, the
Thomases and their friends knew of his
whereabouts, but until a few weeks ago
took no steps to bring him back to North
Carolina for trial. 1t is also told that
lately the brother of Mr.. e. M. Griffin,
who is Mr.. f. C. Griffin of Marshville,
was approached and was asked to COM
promise for a cash consideration. This
he refused.
E. NJ. Griffin was arrested in Eldorado
by Sheriff Horne and taken to Monroe.
There bond for one thousand dollars
was ready, being signed by Messrs. w. s.
Lee and Geo. w. Bailey. The trial of the
case against Griffin is set for June 23rd.
and it will be argued before Squire S. S. S.
McCauley, of Monroe.
Griffin declares, so Sheriff Horne says,
that he will fight the case to a finish.
He has employed some of the ablest at
torneys at the Monroe bar, Messrs.
Adams and Jerome, Armfield and Will
liams, Redwine and Stack. The prosecu-
tion will be represented by Mr. K. l..
Stevens who filed the papers with Gov
ernor Aycock on which the requistion was
issued.

SUPPORT THE TICKET.
Mr. Bryan Endorses the Ohio Convention
Nominees.
(By the Associated Press.)

Lincoln, Neb., July 15.-In extended
comment on the platform by the Ohio
Democratic Convention, w. j. Bryan
insists that the convention made a
mistake in making himself an issue.
and says:
"Mr. Bryan is not a candidate for any
office, and mention of him might
have been construed by some as an en-
dorsement of him for office. The vote
should have been upon the naked propo-
sition to endorse the platform of last
year.
THE convention" he continues, not
only failed but refused to endorse or
re-affirm the Kansas City platform,
and, from the manner in which the gold
element has rejoiced over this feature
of the convention, one would suppose
that the main object of the convention
was not to write a new platform, but
to repudiate the one upon which the
/ last National campaign was fought"
Mr.. Pryan endorses the nominees of
the convention and urges their support.
Referring to the Senatorial fight and
the reported candidacy of John r. Nc
Lean he says:
did the leaders ignore the money
question in order to please those who
bolted? or does Mr.. Mclean want to be
left free to affiliate with the Republic
cans on financial questions in case of
his election?''
He concludes as follows:
eff any of the Ohio Democrats feel
aggrieved because the recognizing
element of the party triumphed at the
convention let them not visit their dis
appointment upon the State ticket. but
rather see to the nominations of Sena-
tors and Representatives who will Sc
lect Trustworthy Senator Let them
see to it also that the State platform
is made at the primaries next time
rather than at the convention"

AN OLD CAMPAIGN FEUD.
1t Led to an Ugly Fight Sunday Night in
House Creek Township.

Ed House, young white man who lives
in the northern part of this county, WAS
yesterday bound over to court in a $50
bond, for assaulting with a deadly wea-
pom, William Saunders, another young
white man.
The fight occurred early Sunday night
and seems to have grown out of an old
grudge on the part of House against
Saunders. 1t seems that during the last
campaign Saunders, who was an ardent
Democrat, said something about people
who voted with the negroes being negroes.
The Houses, who were opposed to the
amendment, appear to have made per-
sonal application and, according to the
testimony in yesterdays trial. they de-
clared that if they ever caught Saunders
off by himself they would get even with
him.
Well. they caught him off by himself
at least two of them did, I'D aud OthO-
and they got even by disfgurings Saund-
ers for life. They mashed his nose into
his face with one rock and struck him
a terrific blow en- his check with an
other.
Sunday evening Saunders went to the
home of Isaiah Goodwin, a neghbor, Wis
ting Soon after he got there the House
toys arrived. All three of them left at
the same time and walked along the road
together until they came to fork-one
road leading to the Saunders home and
one to Houses AS they were parting
Saunders asked the House boys If they
would not go home with him.
NO." replied Ed, II shouldn't think
you'd want negroes your house."
WELL it wouldn't look well to have
them sitting back there, would it?'' calm
ly replied Saunders, whereup Ed House,
calling him vile name, struck him in the
face with some hard substance that
mashed his nose.
Despite his pain Saunders got out his
knife and striking out at House, cut his
coat on the shoulder. This kept House
from again approaching Saunders, but he
