HASTY GOES TO PRISON.
Spent Short While In Charlotte I'.nrouta
to Columbia to Enter Upon life
Sentence.
George Hasty entered upon his
life sentence iu the South Carolina
penitentiary last week for killing
two members of theatrical troupe at
Gaffney a year ago.
The Charlotte Observer says,
The Churlotte city lock-up rarely
contkes within its barred precincts
a mtn who looks less the law-breaker
than does George Hasty, the convict
ed murderer aud admitted slayer
of two men. Hasty arrived in the
city yesterday afternoon from Gaff
ney en route to Columbia. S. C,
where he enters upon a life sentence
in the penitentiary. Offioerlrbyac.
companied him. - -
Hasty stated that he had been in
South Carolina fur about -five years.
He is by birth and rearing a North
Carolinian. His father still lives
at the old home at Randleman.
George Hasty has what is common
ly termed and what would be uni
versally admitted to be "a good
face." He is young, only 23, hand
some, and yesterday was neatly
dressed in a suit of gray, a derby
aud a checkered sweater. He is
strongly and sturdily built. It is
nedlesslto say .that he expects a
jardm sooner or la'er. Were it
not for this hope, the light of his
eyes, where glows the love of life
and the flush upou his cheeks,
which not all the confinement and
the trying ordeal of the past 14
months have been able quite lo re
move, would be impossible. The
sentence to a life time of drudgery
and confinement is a thing incom
prehensible, unrealizable aud impos
sible to one in whose veins yet throbs
the blood of youth.

A Correction.
The development of facts in the
Liberty sensation reported in our
last issue show that an error was
made iu the article taken from the
State press. Friends of Dr. Foust
assert that the author of the report
was in error in stating that Dr.
Foust vanished when Dr. Foster
was called. It appears that Dr.
Foust remained at Liberty attend
ing 'his patients, and was later called
in hy the parents of the unfor
tunate young lady. In as much as
the article was published in good
faith we make this correction.
The tragic end of a days outing
taken by Concord boys and girls at
the home of Mr. R. V. Caldwell
near Concord Saturday was told in
Sundays papers. The young people

his playmates, Miss Mace Parks,
without knowing the rifle was load-
ed raised - it to her shoulder and
shouted to the young son of their
Host "throw up your hands, Lev"
Before the words were utcered a
rifle shot as heard and Master Zeb
fell backward off of a rock and was
precipitated 15 feet below. He died
In a few minutes, the ball having
entered his head. Miss Parks is a
daughter of Baxter Parks, of Con
cord, and is prostrate with grief.
The bereaved family and thelittle
girl by whose hand Master Zeb was
stricken down have ihe sympathy of
