SHERIFF CORLEY
SHOT BY negro

Il Caught.

Sheriff P. II. Corley is lying at his
home desperately wounded and q
posse of three hundred men is scour-
ing the country for Ed Bynum, a des-
perate negro, and if he is caught q
iynchipg will surely follow.
It seems that Bynum had some
trouble with Mr.. G. W. Ca1ghman,
about a field he was working, and the
negro went into the field early this
morning and run a number of negroes
ont of the field with his gun, Mr..
Caughman issued a warrant for his
arrest, and Sheriff Corley went to
Bynum's house. When he came up
to the house the negro shot him
through a window with shotgun.
The sheriff fired with his rifle, but not
until after he was shot. The news
spread like wild flre and it was not
long before the whole country was
aroused. Bynum made his escape and
up to O'Clock has not been captured.
He is notorious character and has
been in trouble before.
Sheriff Corley is shot in the right
side of the face, and in the breast.
His right hand is riddled with shot.
DR.. Wingard is in attendance, but the
extent of the injuries cannot be as
certained.
Henry Corley is one of the bravest
officers in the State, and his thous-
ands of friends will wish for him a
rapid recovery.
