SCO IT £: BOW 'O'., (liswets, ,oo r a;i jj. 7C V suc Mid fm.im-, all ATTEMPT SI RAPE. Brutal Assault on Person of Young White Woman by NEGRO NAMED WILL JACKSON. Woman Alone In Field. When As sault Was Made—Trial Swiftly Ordered An assault was made on the per son of a yonng white woman by a negro, near this city last Monday afternoon. Mr. Smith, an industrious, inoffensive farmer who has laud leased from Mr. Miles Dobbins was picking cotton in a field situated west of the Ladd Lime works about a half mile, the distance from Cartersville being about four and a half miles. It is a lone field surrounded en tirely by woods. A road runs through the field that is used for hauling wood and for reaching two or three small places in that local ity. Will Jackson, a negro employed by Judge J. W. Harris, was driv ing this road, with which he was familiar, having hauled wood over it, using Judge Harris’ horse and buggy, and was going with the family laundry to a negro woman’s a little distance beyond the Dob bins field. The negro knew Smith, and coming up stopped to talk with him as he was emptying some cot ton in baskets, preparatory to tak ing it to his house, about a half mile away. It was the (tinner hour and Smith told his wife in the ne gro’s presence, unthoughtedly that he would take the cotton on and would then go to town; that she could come on when through. Smith and his wife had taken their dinner to the field and had their two and a half year old babe where they could watch it near the has-. kets. The negro drove on ‘ first and was soon overtaken by Smith, who passed him as he was watering his horse at the branch, giving him a chew of tobacco he asked for. The negro, knowing Mrs. Smith was akme in the field, returned to where she was. He left the horse hitched to the buggy standitog in the road and going up to her seized her violently, slapped her in the face and threw her to the ground, planting one hand over tha mouth and the other with a vica like grip over her throat. A tombie scuffle ensued in which the woman was badly bruised a large boulder lay ing where she was shoved down and making painful bruises about her shoulders. Several of her teeth were knocked loose and her face was badly scratched and bruised. While the negro thus tussled with the woman his horse starting off attracted his attention and also a noise as if a vehicle was coming, and the woman slightly freed uttered wild screams. The negro ran to his vehicle and reach ing it drove swiftly away. The woman, weakened by the unequal struggle and overcome by fright and excitement, picked up her babe and made her way as swiftly as possible to her home where she found her husband, not yet gone to town and told him the storv of her experience. He got his pistol, mounted his horse and started to town and soon met with Dr. Baker, who induced him to give him his pistol, as the Doctor feared he might use it rashly. Sheriff R. L- Griffin was notified and At once went out to fin’d the negro, Constable Frank Watkins and Will Goode and Howard Lay ton accompanying him. The negro hurried to Judge Harris’ home where he hitched hitched the horse hastily to a rack and told the cook he was going away for a little while; that he had got in a little scrape, but not give him away. He took the Cassvile road afoot with his valise in his hand, and was seen by Mr. Walter Satterfield running to catc-h up with a wagon. The negro intend ed going to his brother's who lives on the Munford faum, eight miles out. The officers with these facts to guide them, followed and near the farm of Dr. W. E. Thompson, just above Cass Station, Mr. Griffin riding alone saw the negro enter the road between two fields then quietly rode up aud arrested him. The negro said to Mr. Griffin: “Do not take me to town they wiH kill me.” The negro was hurried by the sheriff aud his men and quick ly put in jail, th* arreet and mar ceration being accomplished in a few hours after the deed, for whEh excellent wo. k the sheriff r r great credit. A considerable crowd gathered near the jail, in which wag the husband of,the wo. ' man, who once made a rush at the ; negro as if to do him violence, but I he was restrained. Mr. Griffin and Judge Fite made : temperate talks to the crowd, urg ! ing that the law ought to be allow -led to take its course and the for -1 iner affirming that he intended to I protect the negro. As soon as the assault became generally known excitement arose and mutterings were heard which seemed to presage an effort to deal summarily with the negro. At night men having came in from the country a crewd gathered about the streets,and it is pretty certain if a leader had shown himself a march on the jail would have been made. The crowd dispersed at a late hoar and talk of lynching was freely indulged in. Judge Fite at his own and the instance f good citizens, called a special session of court for this morning to try the negro. A grand and traverse jury has been sum moned. Tuesday uight, fears of a lynch ing being felt, Sheriff Griffin took his prisoner from the jail and boarding the northbound arternoon train and carried him away. Tuesday uight a crowd formed in the outskirts of town w'ith the evident purpose of lynching the negro, and hearing that the woman was having convulsions only added fire to their puipose and determin ation. They were told the negro had been carried away but were slow to believe it, and men from the crowd went lo the jail and the jailer, Mr. Bradley, being apprised of what might be attempted thought it best to satisfy them about the matter and carried them through the jail to see for them selves that the negro was not there. KILLING NEAR STILESBORO- One Negro Shoots Another at a Dance Last Thursday Night, A killing occurred at a negro dance on John Fleming’s place, near Stilesboro, last Thursday night. David Thomas with a banjo was furnishing the music for the dance, it is said, when Pink Carter insist ed on playing and a dispute arose between the two. Thomas, at last in a rage sard “I’ll play this banjo here or I’ll play it in h— ll.” Car ter instantly drew from his pocket a revolver and said: ‘‘Well I guess you’ll play it in hell then.” Pointing the pistol at Thomas’ breast lie fired and the ball entered the negro’s body, but slightly missing the heart. Carter lied immediately and though March has been made for him he ha* not yet been ap prehended. The shooting was done between twelve and one o’clock and Thomas lived until 8 o'clock the next morn ing. Both negroes are very well known in Cartersville, having lived here until recently.
