Fears for Her Safety.

Before Mrs. Dean would consent to
visit her old father in Caldwell eoun-
~, she says she took every precaution
to learn whether she would be mo-
Tested. Her family visited all the
prominent neighbors for miles around
who assured them that Mrs. Dean
could return safely. But not content
with this. Mrs. Dean says she wrote to
DR.. David Amos, whom she says she
knows as the General of the night
rider organization, which also was
testified to in the Gardner-Hunt trial
In Clarksyille, Tenn, last week. She
says that she believed that II DR..
Amos said II would be safe for her
to return. 1t would be so indeed.
By return mail Mrs. Dean says
she received a letter from Mrs. Amos
who stated that DIR. Amos was out Of
the state. but that she thought It
would be perfectly safe for her to re
turn. Mrs. Dean did go to see her
father. Just before she returned
Mrs. Dean declares she was taken to

Herbert Hall Disappears.

Herbert Hall, brother of Sanford
Hall. who has gained much notoriety
for his expose of might rider" Sc
crets and personalities, disappeared
from his home the first week In June
and the current opinion was that he
had skipped out to avoid prosecution
for participating in raids. There was
a warrant out against him though II
had not been served. The day before
he disappeared. IL is said, he told
members of his family that he feared
for his life from the night riders. -
who. he believed. were suspicious of
HIS loyalty TO their cause. because OF
his being a brother OF Sanford Hall.
Saying he was going to his brother
ln-law Charlie Drennan's farm, 10
help pillow, one morning at O'Clock,
Herbert Hall vanished over the hill
and from that moment TO this he has
never been seen by any one. He had
on his working clothes and his fam
ily received no intimation from him
of an approaching departure.
Mrs. Dean said she was talking
with a member Of the might rider
band when in Caldwell county, and
he made this statement about Herr
bert Hall.

SHOT HIS SWAIN.
John Thomas and Maria Pearson
Had a Racket. THE Result.

In the Moore settlement on
Thursday night John Thomas,
colorcd, Shot MARSHA Pearson, also
colored, and wounded her danger
ously. A warrant was sworn
out Friday morning before Maris-
trate Easterling by Will Pearson,
the huband Of Maria Pearson
charging John Thomas with the
shooting. The warrant was placed
in the hands of the Sheriff to serve
on Thomas and bring him to Jail.
1t appears that on this Thursday
night there was a wake" and all
the negroes had gathered to set
up" with the corpse. There were
many from all around and among
them was Thomas, Pearson, and his
wife About the time it came to
go home the gallant John Thomas
offered his services to the dusky
Maria as her escort and they set
out. Right behind and sometimes
with them we're; Will Pearson,
the husband Of the aforesaid Ma.
ria, Will Mcqueen and Will Per.
ry. They had gotten a good dis
lance on the way when, as VIII
Pearson said, there was a "Turiblt
arguing going on" and suddenly
Thomas pulled his shooting iror
and fired at his dusky partner
%wounding her seriously.
Just what followed after thi.
could not be learned. Will Pear.
son brought the information tc
town but he was not able to give
any more Of the particulars. II
was presumed that he was SO ex.
cited over the fact that Thomas
had shot the wife of his bosom
that he could not be expected tc
remember details.

GRAND JURY'S REPORT.
To the Hon. Robert Aldrich,
Presiding Judge:
The grand jury, empannellcd
for the present year, upon the
conclusion of their labors at this
term Of the court respectfully sub
mits the following general report:
They have passed on all Bills of
Indictment submitted TO them by
the Solicitor and returned the
same into court, with their finding
thereon.
The grand jury has not deemed
it necessary to make any extended
examination Of the different coun-
ty Offices during the present term
of this court for the reason that
the same was done but recently
by their predecessors and because
of thc provisions Of the Act or
Joint Resolution passed at the re.
cent session of the general assem-
bly, of this state providing for an
expert examination of such offices
and into the fiscal affairs Of the
county. They deem it but justice

cidcnt. of which they have heard

ever bcttercd by observing cruelty,
the human mind rebels against
cruelty.
