an attempt to escape from the Coun-
ty farm four negroes were killed this
afternoon by II. D. Story, a young

ly Aiken, Handy Smith, Bower Woo
ten and a new negro just brought in
for life Saturday. the guard shot
practically in the same place, in the
face between the eyes and the chin.
The attempt seems to have been a
frame up on the guard, as he had
dropped his pistol. The negro Aiken
seized same and fired at the guard.
He attemp to fire a second time
and a convict by the name of Tom
Burrows knocked him down with a
stalk of cane. The guard got to his
rife and as the negroes made a rush
at him, he got them one at a time.
Quite a bit of excitement prevailed.
Burrows is a white man who had just
escaped but in this case aided the
guard.
