Shooting Scrape Saturday Lewis Pitt was waylaid and shot on Saturday night last. The scene ol the shooting was oh Nash street ju it bejond its intersec ion with the Stan tonsLur roid almost at the spot at which Nettie Jones was murdered a few weeks ago. Two negroes, John Spader and Bill Ayers, have been arrested, charged with the shooting. The ball entered Pitt's back just below the shoulder blade and has not been lo cated. No cause is assigned for the act, altho there is some rumor that he was commanded to hold up his hands and was asked if he had any money. On his attempting to run the shot was fired. Pitt finally succeeded in getting into the house of a man named Harris'thereby ridding bimsd of his oursuers. -The whole occurrence looks like a piece ol wanton deyilitry. This view of it is made the more pronounced when we consider the fact that the same parties- had previously halted another man and threatened to shoot him it he offered any resistance.
