The affair created no little stir, as Rehoboth was a very respectable col ored man, who owned a snug little farm and was a deacon in the Baptist church, lie had the confidence and esteem of his white neighbors, who were sia worked up over the matter that they considered Jhe expediency of an investi gation that should lead to the punish ment of the raiding party. Within a few days the farmers discov ered they had made an awkward mis take, the g-uilty party having been caught red-handed and had made a fuil confession; so, being in the main a right gool set of fellows they decided to oiler balm to Rehoboth for his many wounds, i Thrbe of their number were designated a committee with full power to act, and they hastened to the discharge of their duty. Old Rehoboth was sitting in his neat little cabin with bandaged head, while his wife was apptying' a cooling wash to his lacerated back. The com mittee looked foolish and scarcely knew how to begin; but finally one of the number stammered out an apology, and added that they were willing to pay a reasonable amount as recompense for his sufferings.
