Ed Lucus in Jail.
Sheriff Hay was called to Starrs
ville Sunday morning to arrest
some person who had broken mto
the depot there. After spending
all Sunday in and near Starrsville,
securing such evidence as could be
gathered, the crime was placed
on Ed Lncns, who lived on the
plantation of Mr. Ben Anderson.
Lucus wua under bond for disturb
mg public worship at a church
near Starrsville last January
Lucus secured $17.75 from the
money drawer in the depot, $9 00
in cash was taken from the negio
when arrested.
The negro sternly denies hi?
guilt, but the evidence pointed so
strong towards him that Sheriff
Hay brought him to Covington
and placed him in jail to wait trial
