Sell your tobacco with Mot ley at the Star Warehouse, He has no drummers, Grant and Garfield ad to Ja MISSOURI WOOD ACCOMPA NIES THEM. i The Offence a Capital One. I For several weeks there has > been an epidemic of breaking in and stealing in our town. I and as such crimes will out, i the matter was brought to light last Saturday. Three of the birds were arrested, Grant Mc ■ Neill and Garfield Cagle, the ■ latter being captuied Friday night in Wilson. The colored . girl, Missouri Wood, who has • been cooking at Mrs. T. L. H. Young's "for some time, a wit ness in the case against Gar field for entering the house of Mrs. Young on the night of July lOfch, was also found upon evidence to be connected with the breaking in, and sent to jail. The trial against Garfield was heard and he was bound over to court, and placed in the lock-up. Grant McNeill was also a witness in the case, and was arrested Wednesday previous to the trial, for selling stolen meat, so he and the woman were placed in the guard house. A few hours after they were all placed in the lock-up, Grant McNeill con fessed the whole thing. His evidence was that the woman cut the shutters and got Gar field to go into the house and look for a gold watch and ring. He went in and failed to find the articles and made his es cape through the back door without disturbing the family. The woman then sent Grant in for the valuables. He went in at the window and made a search and while in disturbed Mrs. Young and her daughter, who called out and caused him to make his escape through the back door. No further evidence was given, and all three were sent to Fayette ville jail. This is a capital offence and if the same evi dence is produced at the next term of Court Harnett will have another hemp pulling. The Best Report. Mr. H. C. McNeill, tax lister for Averasboro township, is in receipt of a letter from the Reg ister of Deeds, bearing date of July 15th, which states that his returns are found to be the best and most complete in every re spect of any received in the county. This speaks well for our neighbor and friend, Mr. McNeill. He is not only an ac curate and careful man along the line of tax listing, but one of the best magistrates in this township, keeping himself well posted in the law. We con gratulate him in the words of praise. ! Ball Game, Tomorrow. Tomorrow evening (Thurs- day) and Friday morning the Durham ball team will play on our diamond against the home team.
