The stabbing affray which occurred fai
the cloth room of the Enterprise factory at
Augusta Monday was one of the worst that
has happened in Augusta in months. Cul
pepper, who used the knife, is about 18
years of age, while his victim, A. I. King,
is an old man with wife and family. They
had some words, and the boy drew his knife
and plunged it into Mr. King’s back. The
knife point entered the backbone. Just here
the frightful part of the affair took
place. King was for the moment
paralyzed by the stab and fell back
ward to the floor. This drove the
knife still further into his back, leav
ing nothing to be seen but the handle. Peo
ple at work near by rushed to the assistance
of the prostrate man, and an attempt was
made to withdraw the knife, but the com
bined efforts of three men were of no avail.
Every plan was tried, and it was at last
found necessary to send to a blacksmith
shop for a pair of iron pinchers with which
to extract the firmly imbedded blade. As
a matter of course, King’s condition is
very serious, aud death may result.
