City Engineer Murray is Advised that

AT DOOR OF HOUSE
NEGRO IS FOUND
With Basket Cotton On His
Head,
is HARPooNED BY A LAWYER.
Caught Dead to Rights, the Negro
Promised Never to Come Again If
Not Prosecuted and Is Allowed to
Go Upon that Condition.

Col James Williams is farmer as
we'll as a lawyer, having long since at
tanned distinction in both lines, and
like the lark he rises early and goes
forth to view the beauties of nature
and Cuff in the cotton patch.
He was in his field yesterd ~ morn,
ing ere Old Sol got busy.
Col. Williams was softly hummlng
the refrain cold Grimes is Dead" etc.
when, as he reached his cotton house,
he was confronted by Grimes himself,
right at the door.
This late edition of Grimes was bit
off color ard had George" tied to his
name for handle. But this was not
the only thing tied to Grimes, for a
basketful of cotton bore evidence of a
painful story as to Grimes,
It was the old, old story, told since
the days of Ham in the garden.
Col. Williams looked at GRIMES,
caught dead to rights with the goods,
while the latter's think works started
up on full time in an effort to invent
some plausible story.
But If any man on earth knows Mr.
Niger that man is Col. Williams. and
the dramatic story concocted by Grimes
fell fiat,
Grimes is tenant on farm near by.
He told Col. Williams that he was 6
church member and prayed hard daily,
but if let of tits { me he would never
be caught thus.y again just as long as
he lived.
And compact to that end was final.
Iy entered upon.
Col, Williams told Grimes that, as q
lawyer, he had kept many negroes out
OF the penitentiary, aud that if be
would swear not TO come to his cotton
house at daylight to pray for the next
six years, he would not prosecute him.
Grimes lifted up his voice in a robust
swear; the cotton basket was emptied
quickly, and the little early morning
drama thus ended.
