] Miss Lydia Collet, daugter of Fernant
Collet, hostler on the Evan Hall plantation
of the Mccall Bros. Planting and Manu-
featuring Company. was the victim of
most peculiar and painful experience las
Wednesday morning. The young lad!
states that she was awakened about
O'Clock by the creaking of the door of al
armor which stands in one corner of thu
room occupied by her and her younger
sister. She sat up in bed, and declares
that as she did SO she was struck heavy
blow on the left side of the face. lust
over the left eye, by a man who was
standing at the side of her bed. She as
serts that in addition to this intruder, she
saw a second man standing in the room,
just in front of the armor Upon being
struck Miss Collet screamed, whereupon
she states that the man at her bedside
grabbed her by the hair and struck at her.
Evidently the marauder held in his hand
razor or a very sharp pair of shears,
since the young lady's hair, which was
bound into a plat. was severed COM
pIetely with one stroke. Miss CoIlet then
became historical or lost consciousness,
and when her father came running into
the room a second later in response to her
scream for help no trace of the man or
men could be discovered. The young
lady's hair was found lying on the pillow.
and the narrow window which besides the
door leading into the dining-room is the
only means of entrance to or exit from
the room, was wide open, the small screw
which fastened the shutter to the casing
having been pulled out. A search of the
room disclosed the fact that the armor
had been ransacked and bracelet and
purse containing 81 were missing, but
these articles had been taken
from the armor or were misplaced has not
yet been definitely ascertained.
The sheriff's Office was communicated
with shortly after the assault, and Chief
Deputy George H. Richard. with Robert E.
Dill, fastened to the scene with the sher-
ifs bloodhounds, arriving at the premises
about 5 o'clock Although a thorough
search was made the dogs failed to strike
a trail, and every effort to locate a clew
as to the identity of the guilty parties or
the direction they had taken proved I'M
availing.
The affair is still shrouded in mystery,
A pair of shears were lying on a table in
one corner of the room occupied by Miss
Collet and her sister, but a test with these
proved that only with much difficulty
could they be made to cut through the
heavy braid of hair which was sheared
from the head of the unfortunate young
lady. 1t is also stated on good authority
that the blow which Miss ColIet received
was struck with a fist, since there was no
abrasion of the skin, and that it could only
have been inflicted by strong person.
Chief Deputy Sheriff Richard is working
hard on the case and hopes to be able to
unearth clew which will result in the
ultimate apprehension of the person or
persons guilty of this most outrageous
crime.
