Scotch Immigrant Living in Lower
Richland Claims Brutal Treatment
at the Hands of Highwaymen.

F. W. Mcdonald, a Scotch immi-
grant, who has bought farm in the
lower part of the county and settled
there, is not particularly pleased with
Richland on the whole. Late on
Monday night be was held up by two
negroes near his place of abode a4d
beaten and robbed. He appeared in
the city yesterday morning and went
to Magistrate McMaster to have war
rant sworn out against two men
whom he thinks are the parties, but
later he returned and withdrew the
warrants, preferring to have them
issued at Eastcver.
Mcdonald says that he was on his
way home when the negroes met him
in the road and seized him. One
held him while the other went
through his clothes. After the little
money that he carried was taken, he
says that the nergoes attacked him
with their fists and then ran away
into the darkness Of some nearby
woods.
The young man has only been in the
United States about Que year. He
likes the country and says he will re-
main here. His reason for the attacks
is not wholly the motive of robbery.
but a jealousy of the negroes. for he
says that the feeling Of envy against
him is something decided in character.
The negroes have the idea, be
thinks, that the immigrants, will
come here and run them away" as
he expressed i.
