Two Assault Cases.

iuc last udyS Ol last week Cne
monotony of official circles was
broken by the arrest of two ne
groes for criminal assault.
Louis Williams was arrested
Friday, and Saturday the case
was continued because the State
could not get all Of the witnesses
in time for the trial.
The facts that have been learn
ed since the arrest of the negro
proves that it is very bad case.
The victim of the prisoner was a
nine year old girl and the mother
of the girl, who is Hattie Briggs,
and who lives in the country, two
miles south of Durham, tried to
kill Williams at the time. She
used a rifle, firing several times,
and some of the balls passed close
to the negro but he was not hurt.
The negro, so the mother and
others witnesses state, then pull
ed a pistol and tried to kill her,
one of the balls at least coming
so close to her body that it pass
ed through her clothing. In his
flight to get away from the scene
Williams left his hat, which was
secured by mother of the girl and
will be used as corroborative evil
dence to back up what is told by
the mother and the girl.
Immediately after the trouble
Williams skipped out and as there
was nothing said he came back
to his home in Hayti, only to be
picked up by Officer Harvard
and Policeman Clapp.
Sunday morning shortly after
l o'clock Sergeants Aldridge and
Pendergrast, Of the police force,
arrested John Thomas, colored,
on the charge of criminally as
saulting Lenora Strayhorn, who
is said to be 10 or IL years of age.
The negro was locked up. The
deed was done Saturday after
noon at the home of Strayhorn,
beyond Lakewood park.
The matter was reported to the
officers soon after the crime, the
father of the girl telling the of
ficers about it. At that time
Strayhorn was looking for Thom-
as. saying that he was going to
kill him on sight. The officers in
structed him to go back home and
not to have too much to say and
then plans were laid to catch
Thomas. When the two officers
went to Thomas home Sunday
morning he was in bed but not
sleeping. He admitted having
been to the home of Strayhorn
Saturday afternoon, but denied
the crime.
Only the statement of the girls
father has yet been secured. He
tells of the crime and of evidence, |
which if true, is one that is hor-
rible in every way. At the time
of the alleged crime no one was
at home but the girl victim and
and one or two smaller children. |
