BOlfflS RETURN. j esirs . Doiiehoo And Jones Released on Bail. rH Kllll. THE NEGRO, Shot in The Upper Arm And Bled to Death, fheßome party, consisting (ls Messrs. M- B Eubanks and p \ Denny, of the Rome bar, . n J Messrs. D. B. Hamilton, y T Stanford, Fred Schlapback au(] Walter Coker of Rome, and Squire Will Rich, of Chulio, ) u . ve returned from Anniston, accompany by Mr. Will Done ioo, of Lindale, and Bailiff Abb Jones, of Chulio. It seems that Abb Jones and Mr. Djuehoo had a warrant for the arrest of Will Freeman, the flegrowho had despoiled the two young daughters of the widow Jones out in Chulio, that they found Freeman at work on a farm at Choccolocco near An niston, that they called on him to surrender and that, instead, he left his plow and sought safe ty in flight. The Georgians fired two shots each with winchester , and one ball struct the negro’s upper left arm cutting an artery Mr. Donehoo tried to s*op the flow of blood and sent for a phy s cian. It is stated that when the doctor arrived and found why the negro was shot most positively refused to try to save his life,|and when the next phy sici n arrived, though he did all lie could, the wounded fi n I had lost too much blood and di-d while his wound wls being dressed. Messrs. Donehoo aid Jones gave themselves up to the coun ty authorities and were the guests of the deputy sheriff at his home on Wednesday night. Their Rome friends went down yesterday and attended the hear ing which resulted in bond being assessed at SIOOO in eacli case. This was readily made and this morning all parties returned to Georgia. The negro’s crimes were hein ous, and his death was merited, and under the unwritten law of the south the avengers will nev er have to suffer. All good men commend the act of Abb Jones and Bill Done hoo, who as a last resort shot down the fleeing black fiend,rath er than let him escape to de spoil other orphaned white girls and helpless white females. Had Freeman been captured in Hoyd county, the chances ar»that he would have been by Jud o e Lynch an j exe . cute <l by Sheriff Mob. As it is l* e is harmless for the future. 1 his fate prove a warning to 1,0 «« who need it. ATTEN HON !
