ADVENTURE.
CAFI. WAY ANDHIS DRI-
VER TARGETS FOR
DRUNKEN NEGRO
Capt. J. B. Way came near suffer
ing the fate of “the innocent by
stander” recently. He was driving
with his negro man, John McCall,
down to his Florida turpentine farm,
when a negro mall carrier drove up
behind them and after cursing Mc
Call, pulled his pistol and shot at
him. Capt. Way was exactly btr
tween the negro who did the shoot
ing and the one that was shot at.
It was early in the morning and
the mall rider, James Nelson, had
not gone more than five miles down
toward Tallahassee. Capt. Wav and
his negro in their buggy passed him
on the Spring hill road v They told
him howd’y do and went on. They
had not traveled a great distance
when Nelson drove up behind them
furiously and began cursing Mr.
Way’s driver. They both say that
the mall carrier was /lrunk and paid
little attention to him. He couttnued
the tirade for nearly a mile and just
as Capt. Way was turning out into
a side road his negro looked back
at Nelson and said “Where’d you get
your liquor. Nelson renewed, his
cursing at this and pulling a pistol,
fired a shot directly at the buggy.
Capt. Way, who had said nothing
up to this time, got out at this and
ired a broadside of words at the
drunk negro that quickly brought
him v to apologize so far as he was
concerned. He kept up his abuse
however of the other negro end
would not quiet.
The incident was closed for the
day at this, but when Mr. Way re
turned to town that night lie swore
out a warrant against Nelson for
assault with intent to murder and
had him arrested as soon as he show
ed his face in Thomnsville. He de
clares that if there Is a law in the
land this man will suffer for his
folishness.
