AN UNFORTUNATE DISPATCH ■ i It Prevented the Arrest of Murderer Sam Hose. j Had not nome one sent a dispatch | yesterday to the posse who for the : past few days have been pursuing Sam i Hose, the negro would have, ere this, paid the penalty for his horrible crime. When the dispatch was received by the posse stating that Hose had been arrested and carried to Palmetto, they had the murderer and rapist located and would have, beyond the shadow of a doubt, captured him before the sun rose this morning. After receiv ing the ditpatch the men supposed they were on the wrong track and dis persed, leaving the brute to go his way un pursued. The persons sending the dispatch which called off the pursuers, evident ly had what they considered authentic information of the airest of Hose, but it proved to he a serious mistake. Mr Abe Rog -.vsk . : .s city, was one of the p.isse and to a C \i.i. reporter today he related b w the negre wa» tracked from place to place. Huge was first heard of at Digby and from there he went to Drewry ville, where he tried to pass a $5 Confederate bid. He was followed to Hollonville, and there he again attempted to pass the Confederate money for some tobacco at Mr Marshall’s store. The posse was not very far behind the negro ami pushed on with all png sih'e haste until they reached Mr. J. P. t’rawfdrd’s plantation, about a mile and a half this side of Concord. 1 hey learned from Mr. Crawford th i 1 a negro filling the description of Hose had applied to him that morning ab-ut It) o’clock, asking for employ ment, claiming he was from Jg’per County. He was hired and left saying he would return this morning and go t ) work. In a negro house on this plantation, wi i found th ■ blot d stained clothes which Hose had left o> be washed, with the understanding that he ' old Cad fi t tlit tn last night. rile pursuers were th n sat .-lied the', wet? i n the right tr i, k and ■A. nd i apture iho brute bef< is mid night. ior'ly a*!, t a ird.’ a d -p itch whs r< i ■ v. d ■ t it> g that Hose had !• u»n e.apnired and carried to Palmetto «Io i i> ■u m Ib-d- i l «ith at im e lie men in (. i. cip'iissed at this inf. -r nuti ft' 1 wired fir lu', r ; ir- ■ tieillars, -‘atit.g that they were sure they had the right man located Ihe message came to them again that Sam Hose was beyond till doubt ntidei art, st in Palmetto, and it was i • that ti ei • ghl’i re I Mr and Mrs I I Cranford gave op the chase and hastened back : P.ilm tt >, I. ping to get there in lime to wittit” the death of tb« brute Mr If gowsl.l su' • , U . . ; the par ly r ■named tn the ti.-ighl rl i.d st v e-«l I ura I ngt-r, arid then went to 1 d! -I the Bight He HAS itldig n-itit ft he ienr t: 'thi' negro had m t |.,0 n art- sted, and was e till,lent | his party ft. n d have caught Hme ‘ hut ft : the tin' rtuiiate dis; titcli Citizens living in Cn< I <i 1 I P . lit ve the negro IS in tl.it n. ;» !.;• , r . j and a' 10 t .sl< k this mor ,g wired to 1 (Diflin ra | me ' come ivn , tn ,| I hoip them to ci pt ure him Ihe posse was '. im> d n d est about bn* n heard ■ from them, and it is feiri I t 1 e ne to ha* escaped.

Those standing nt the door heard i the blinds close, and suspecting some -3 thing, sent for Officers Gordon and i i I‘belps, who gained an entrance to the , i room by raising a window opening . ■ upon the front porch, and to the sur ! prise of all, its occupant was missing r An investigation disclosed the fact I that he had jumped from the side ] window into the yard and made a / : hasty retreat through the back yard to s i parts unknown.
