School Was Dedicated.

Monday the new Deerfeld public
school was dedicated with elaborate
ceremonies, the handsome, new
modern building being packed with
the representative people of the
township. The building is upon the
same site that has been used for
school purposes for hundred years.
President Charles johnson of the

she handed her husband the death
dealing cartridges.
Little thought was given that one
of these shells wassto bring death to
the Constable, and another was to at
tempt the life of the wife, and Green
age climbed in the buggy and with
the Constable was driven off.
None now knows OF the ride. 1t
was two miles to the house of Justice
Hall, and it is presumed that the des-
perate mulatto said but little. It is
quite likely that he was sullen and
silent, plotting the death, the foul,
cowardly murder of the man by his
side.
1t was probably about twenty min
utes of one O. clock when Constable
Buck with his prisoner drove into the
yard of the Justice. The barn is back
of the house and near the wagon
house but short distance away, and
the horse was driven up to hitching
post there.
Justice Hall and Mrs. Hall were
eating dinner, and paid no particular
attention to the arrival of the two
men. The report of gun shot shart-
led them and Mrs. Hall rushed out of
the house. Bucks horse was plung-
ing in its fright and Mrs. Hall re-
treated in the house. Justice Hall
came out, looked after the horse but
for the instant did not see any person.
A moment later, the prostrate body
of Buck was discovered lying near the
hitching post.
A hasty examination showed that
Buck had been murdered, the gaping
wound just over the left ear showing
the result of the gun shot.
Justice Hall called for VIM. B.
Davis, just opposite, and another near
neighbor, Charles P. Cake, assisted
in tenderly carrying the lifeless body
OF the victim into the wagon house.
Death had been instantaneous
No one had seen the murderer.
None knew which way he had gone.
Those who gathered from the sparse
ly settled community were inactive,
stunned with the awful crime.
From close examination, it ap-
pears that when the two men arrived
at the Hall property Greenage must
have alighted from the buggy first.
AS he did so he probably slipped one
of the loaded shells in the gun 1t is
quite likely that Buck had gotten out
of the wagon and was in the act of
reaching under the seat for the hitch
ing rope when the fatal shot was

1t was Thursday morning that JUS
tice Hall gave this warrant into the
hands OF Constable Henry Buck. a
popular, honest gentleman, and a
little while before noon the officer
drove to Greenage's house. When the
constable arrived he found the negro
at nome, gun in hand, having been
chaslng his wife. The Constable in
formed Greenage that he was under
arrest. There was no protest, but the
colored man prepared to accompany
the officer He still retained his gun.
but in the presence of his father-in-
law, Emanuel Pierce, demonstrated
that it was not loaded by breaking the
breeoh.
By this time Mrs. Greenage had re-
turned to the house and her husband
directed her to bring from the dwell
ing three loaded shells. She declined
to do so, but the Constable laughing
ly told her it would be all right, and

HORRIBLE MURDER
In GREEN WICH

Cumberland county is again stirred

so close upon the atrocious murder of
John S. Holmes and Catharine Shute.

the murder cold blooded and again is
colored man responsible for heinous
crime
While people here were gathering
for the Republican convention early
Thursday afternoon, with bands play
ng and streets crowded with enthusi-
astio men, aaword was flashed to Prose-
outor Fithian over the telephone that
Henry Buck, Greenwich constable,
had been shot and instantly killed by
Samuel Greenage.
At once Prosecutor Fithian started
in motion all of the machinery of
the county. Sheriff Hendee, con-

stables Lore, Cresswell, Custis, Wood
ruff were hurried to the scene of the
crime.
Prosecutor Fithian and the Sheriff
went down together and were the
first to arrive at the farmhouse of
Justice of the Peace John M. Hall, at
Bacon's Neck, where Constable Buck
had been done to death.
Gathered about were ,awestricken,
terrified farmers and others, awaiting
the action of the authorities. In the
wagon shed lay the body of the Con-
stable, an ugly gaping wound in the
left temple. The murderer was no
one knew where, and had been for
more than two hours making his es-
cape.
The Prosecutor at once called upon
the Sheriff and his posse to arm them
selves and scour the country. With
emphasis the Prosecutor instructed
the pursures to capture the colored
criminal and bring him dead or alive.
With shot gun the Prosecutor joined
in the search which continued all
through the dreary, dark hours of the
misty, rainy night.
The crime, horrible, cold bIooded.
was committed just before one
O'Clock, and the loyal Constable,
Harry Buck, who knew no fear, was
cowardly assassinated by the desper-
ate villain, as he stood back of the
officer.
The story is sorry one, and an
outraged community will promptly
revenge the crime if the desperate
negro is apprehended
Samuel Greenage, worthless, was
married to daughter of Eman-
uel Pierce, and their home life
has been one of chickering's and quar-
rels. Greenage refused to work, and
the support of the house fell upon
the woman, and she was enabled to
acquire some little income from bak-
ing and carrying little delicacies to
the Bayside fishermen, where they
found ready sale.
Her frequent trips caused the un-
speakable Greenage to complain of his
WIFE, He questioned her conduct and
became jealous, and frequently he
beat the woman and many times
threatened her life. His conduct be-
came unbearable and day before yes
terday the woman came to Justice of
the Peace John M. Hall for protec-
tlon. She made sworn complaint
against her husband. and warrant
was issued.

The Worst Form.

Multitudes are singing the praises of
Kodol, the new discovery which is
making so many sick people we'll and
weak people strong by digesting what
they eat. by cleansing and sweeting the

into the kind of pure, rich, red blood that

number of years I was troubled with
indigestion and dyspepsia which grew
into the worst form. Finally I was in

Lent.

Lent, which this year begins to-
day and Is followed by Easter
Aarch 80 includes 40 days. the re-
ligious observance of which Is be-
lieved by many to be of apostolic
origin. and by others to be an
ecclesiastical institution in remem-
brance of Christ's fast.
The particular attention paid to
Lent for centuries by at least the
Catholics and Episcopalians. has
been followed of late years la some
cities by Its observance by other
religious denominations, including
we believe, the Methodist and Pres
bytetian. To refrain from worldly
pleasures for forty days, and turn
the mind to meditation and prayer,
Is not to be regarded as harmful In
any view, and Lent is likely TO ap-
peal with more and more force to
mankind as the world grows better
