XCITING 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. MANY COMIX. Coolldge Gets,New Residents from DJffmnit Placet—Other Newt.
