He then locked the door and went oil' lo a baseball match. Heturninginnhoulan hour lie found Brown had broken jail and escaped. Potter tlien hurried to Brown’s house, about a half mile dislant, and saw Brown standing at the gate talking to a little girl, hut on seeing the marshal approach ing ran off. The marshal pursued, and believing that he was about to lose his prisoner, tired into the air for the purpose ol frightening him. Brown did not stop, and the mar- shal then lired at Brown, the lull! striking him in the leg. Tlte negro ran about four hundred yards, when the marshal llrcd again, witli! better aim. The negro then darted into the woods and the marshal re turned to town for assistance. When they returned they found the negro dead in the woods. The coroner held an inquest over tile body and rendered a ver- diet to the cil'ect that Brown came to his death from a gunshot wound, and supposnblv at the hands of J. O. Potter. It is thought that Pot- j ter has gono away. Mew Hook. Mns. Bonn's Niece. By Ella Farman. Thu Young Folks’ Li brary. lllnstrated. Boston: I*. Lo- throp A Co. Prioe 2ft cents.
