g; 3 :" o., OFF HIS LIP
A .GhastIy Sight in Robbins
Livery Stable.
John Mitchell Last Night Badly Beat Ell Horton
Another Negro Whose Lower Lip
is Gone.

In a pLool of blood old man Eli Hor-
ton wallowed about on the floor in Rob-
bins stable on Wilmington street last
night
His face was beaten up, his clothes all
bloody, but more CHASTITY still his lower lip
was gone, where once it had been being a
raw mass as of torn and bloody beef.
The man was taken to Rex Hospital,
where the physicians will try to replace
the lip, which was found on the floor.
John Mitchell is in the city Jail, and there
will be trial on Monday.
Mitchell is a negro who has a store and
restaurant on Wilmington street back of
the YarbtNough House, and is about thirty
years old, a vigorous, strong negro. Hor-
ton is an old man fifty-five years of age,
apparently not over strong. He is in the
employ of Mr.. j. H. Robbins on his farm,
who says that Horton is peaceable, good
negro, and has been with him for six
years.
Neither of the men seemed to have been
drinking Mitchell met Horton near Rob-
bins stable door shortly before 10 o'clock
and asked him for thirty cents that Hor-
ton owed him. Witness say Horton said
he did not have the money, and that when
Mitchell threatened him he said he would
hit Mitchell with a stick At this Mitch
ell said he would use a brick Mitchell
says Horton cursed him and hit him with
stick on his hand.
The men clinched and Mitchell struck
the old man heavy brow and forced him
back III the stable, beating him about the
face, the old man trying to defend him
self. They got together, with heads close
and hands about each others faces. Down
on the floor they went till separated once,
Mitchell being taken out of the stable.
but in a moment being back, beating
kicking and punching the old fellow
When separated it was found that IL
large part of Horizons lower lip was gone
and that he was bleeding badly. 1t look
ed as if the lip had been bitten through
and literally torn off. Mitchell declares
that he used only his fists in the fight.
but as Horton has no upper teeth he could
not have bitten off his own lip. A search
for the missing lip was made and it was
found on the stable floor with part of
the old mans beard on it.
Mitchell made off and hurried to Mag
istrate Barbee to submit, but Officer War
rem was too quick for him. He arrested
Mitchell on Mr.. Barbee's steps and hur-
ried him to the lock up Captain Conrad
and Officer Barrow were soon at the
stable and investigated the affair secur-
ing witnesses, Captain Conrad getting at
the bottom of facts Chief Mullins came
also and finding the matter serious re-
quired heavy BAIL which Mitchell did
not give, but remains in jail.
The appearance of Horizons lip, to all
who looked at it. is that it was bitten
off in the scuffle between the two men.
This comes under the head of serious
injury and the penalty prescribed by law
Is two years in the penitentary.

A CHASTITY MURDER
PedIer Shot and Hacked to
Pieces. Two Men Under
Arrest.
(By the Associated Press.)

Charleston S. c., Aug. IA special to
the News and Courier from Aiken, S. c.,
says:
Abram Surasky, Jewish peddler living
in Aiken, was murdered near Hawthorne,
Ill Aiken county, on Wednesday evening
by two white men, George Tooe and Lee
Green. The body was not discovered until
Friday evening. The murdered man was
80 years of age and one OF five brothers
who ran small stores in Aiken, all peace
full quiet citizens, harming no one as is
characteristic of the race. On last Tues
day Mr.. Surasky loaded his wagon with
his packs and started or. his rounds. He
is supposed to have stopped at Green's
house to sell his wares as it was his
custom to do, and it was then the two
men carried out their plan of robbery and
murder.
Surasgy was shot twice in the back with
gun, one arm was almost severed from
his body were hacked horribly with an
axe. When the body was discovered it
was impossible to recognize any semblance
of human being in the face as decomposi-
ton had set in. Buzzards flying over the
spot attracted the attention of men pass
ing by. Sheriff Alderman and the coro-
ner went to the scene of the murder early
this morning. On searching for clews the
officers found pool of blood in the yard
of Lee Green's house and other blood
stains were discovered on melon rinds
and the bloody axe was found under the
house
At the coroner's inquest it was develop
ed by the clues found. that Toole and
Green shot Sureky twice in the back and
then cut him up with the axe. The shots
evidently did not suffice to subdue their
victim and the axe was used to finish
him. After their work was accomplished
they loaded the corpse in the victims own
wagon and drove to lonely spot in the
woods and tied the horse to a tree and
left it. The horse becoming hungry broke
loose and pulled the wagon with it's ghast-
ly load away from the spot where he was
tied to within mile and half of Haw-
thorne, when it was discovered. A negro
man Is suspected of being an accomphce
IN the crime, but so far the negro is free
Lee Green is a bad character. he attempt
ed to kill peddler named Levi from Au-
l3usta, Ga, some time ago Levi was
wounded but escaped Surasky only had
about $S in money, this was taken, but
his watch and pack were not disturbed
by his murderers.
The authorities are confident that they
have the right parties.
