been lying where found since some

the character of his wounds it was evil
dent that he had been the victim of a

From disiointed attempts at speech
made by the wounded man, it was
gathered that he was William Horne,
OF Snow Hill, or from near Goldshoro.
Owing to the desperate character of
his wounds and the fact that his mouth
is crushed in, he is not yet able to
talk intelligently and consequently no
details OF the crime are yet ohtalnable.

that, while the wounds were very ser
ious and the patient suffering greatly

considered that he had fair chance
of recovery
