Negro Attempts to Assault Thirteen

near his house. was away from the
house, in a field about three hundred
yards from the store, VIXEN the at
tempt 1t assault took place. The
mother. was not at the house at the
time. It seems that the negro Rivers
went to the house and asked to buy
some shells for his shotgun, cut Of
the store. The young girl went into
the oommissary and sold the man the
shells, some candy and several other
small articles. -"
Then it was, she says, that he
choked and attempted to assault her,
but the screams Of the terrorlzed VIC
tim brought her father running. The
negro became frightened and escaped
from the furious father into bay
near the farm. The alarm soon
spread. Two deputy sheriffs, two
MAGISTRATES, several constables and
about one hundred mea started In
pursuit OF the negro, who, it Is
claimed, has been; located in bay
near the sceRe Of the ert1ra.

searching for the negro in the bay,

thought to be dangerous. The negro
was about seven feet. away from LET.
Fits whea the shot was fred through
a eiurop OF bushes. Mr.. Fits Is a
prominent business man Of Hampton,
and this unfortunate turn to the al
ready horrible crime is deeply de-
plered.
A farmer living On the adjoining
plantation furnished the information
that q neg, answering the descrip-
ton OF Rivers, with gun, had passed
through his yard and had gone Into
the bay, where he is now thought to
be. The country round abora fs
stirred up over the attempted assault,
and the faces OF the men around the
scene Of the crime wear a determined
look. If the negro IS caught It is the
opinion Of people here that he will
never sec a jail. The family OF the
girl who was attacked is widely con-
nected and we'll known throughout
this country.

Sherard, the seventeen-year-old son
Of the late DR.. Sherard, Of the Leb-

stroyed the home Of Mr. Wilson.
The two young men went to Able
vile Tuesday night, to attend the
show In tho opera house, and re-
turned to Mr.. Wilson's after the
show. No one heard them enter the
house on their return, which must
have been after 12 o'clock. About

Wilson awakened to find his house In

small children. The fire was burning

not the case.
