YOUNG WIFE VICTIM.
Drunken Negro Assaulted and Beat into lnsensi
bility Mrs. Frank James Near Greers.

Drunken Negro Assaulted ana beat INTO tnsens''
bility Ms. Frank James Near Greers.
GREENv1LLE, s. c., Dec. 19.-Mrs.
Frank James, the young wife of a pros
porous farmer, living in Chick Springs
Township, between Greers and Taylors,
was assaulted at her home about dusk last
night, by Andrew Thompson, a negro, 40
years old, who beat her into insensibility,
and threatened her with death if she told.
Her husband, coming from work, found
her hysterical and disigured from the
blows of the negro's fists. The neighbors
formed posse and began searching for
the fiend.
Constable A. c. Rainey found Thomp-
son in drunken stupor at his cabin, 8
mile from the scene Of the crime at 8
o'clock this morning. Fearing lynch
ing the constable left the posse with the
impression that he was going to drive
across the country with his man, BY the
way uf the Paris mountain road. They
cut across the country to head him of,
and lynch the prisoner, but he made q
detour and caught Southern train, No. 80
at Taylors station for Greenville. Rainey
delivered the prisoner at the county Jail
by noon.
Excitement is intense about Greers
and Taylor's. The young woman who
was assaulted has been married three
years. She is the daughter of John Dun.
can, and member of an excellent coun-
try family, with an extensive connection.
The man who Is said to have assaulted
her has lived in this neighborhood all his
life, and presumably committed the deed
in drunken frenzy.
