Sbootlng ot a Desperate Negro
at Keliord Creates Oreat Ex
citement No Politics la It,
t Last Friday afternoon, the day
after the election, was an exolting
time for the town of Eelford, in
Bertie county, the cause being
the shooting of Thorn a Bowden,
colored, by Ben. J. Burketlna
bar room at that place. , . .
It appears that about a month
afo the two men had a difficulty
In which Bowden was the agres
sor and, drew a chair on Berket,
the later not: having any ting to
defend himself . with, so did not
resent the threat; Last Friday
Burket was. clerking in Brown's
bar at Eelford. Bowden came in
the bar and became very , bolster
ous . He was ordered out but re
fused to go, and began, to curse
Burket in; a (most violent and
abusive' manner,' using language
not fit to print. ; Mt, Bucket took
from the shelf a pistol and began
to shoot at Bowden. ; One "shot
entered bis mouth and came out
below the ear. Another entered
the shoulder. The third shot
missed the mark and lodged over
the door. By that time Bowden
had "got out" as he bad been
ordered to do before the shooting
began.
" The bar was about full of peo
ple at the time but a track for the
balls was soon cleared, everybody
in the line of fire seeking exit or
shelter.
- In" a few minutes there were
about one hundred negroes
around the bar making loud
threats of vengence against Bur
ket, and saying- he should never
come out of the bar alive. By
this time other white men
had gathered,, who went . into
the bar to help protect Burket
from the mob without In the
meantime Bowden had been car
ried to the poslofflce, which was
made headquarters for the would
be rioters, the postmaster being
a negro. Mr. J. H.Liverman, the
late. Fusion candidate for Sheriff
of Bertie, was present and went
out among the negroes urging
them to be quiet and let the law
take its course.'' They would not
heed his advice, but continued to
make threats and guard the doors
of the bar,
By this time the news bad
spreadQ to Roxobel, inile and
half away, and reinforcements
for the White men,' whith guns
and am unition,, began to arrive,
swelling the number of white
men to about 20. Dr A.Capehart
who had just arrived announced
to the crowd without that Mr.
Burket was going to be taken to
the Mayor's office in the hotel
and warneJ them that if any
effort was u ade to molest him
that the last one of them would
be shot down. Dr. Capehart took
the lead followed by Burket and
a number of other white men
and went across the railioad
and street to the hotel. The
Doctor's coolness and bravery
did much to prevent a terrible
rot.
James H liiggs, a colored man
of high standing among both the
whiles and negroes, and who has
accumulated property by attend
ing to bis own business and be
having himself as becomes a good
citizen, happened to be present
and warned the negroes of their
danger, and advised them to go
to their homes, telling them that
if they persisted in their course
the last one of them would be
kill After performing this duty
Biggs went home, and the crowd
began to disperse and there warv, AELT BED OR PURPLE TOP
no farther trouble.
There was. no politics in this
affair.. The color line was sharply
drawn. Mr J. H. Liverman. late
Fusion candidate for sheriff, ren
dered the white people practical
service on this occasion in other
ways besides tYying.to persuade
the negroes to be quiet '. . .
At last 'accounts the ' negro
Bowden. who was show was re
covering, 'his woundsNnot being
serious. ''i.v:riyi
The oarties were arrested and
given a bearing before the Mayor
and released, tne evidence snow

Alarmed and Organised for
'' ' Protection.
The events for few weeks pre
ceding the election prepared our
people to expect some excitement,
so it uame the nlgbt before the
election, though in reality there
was no cause for It. , -
Early in. the night off the day
before the election a rumor gain
ed currency that tne town was to
be burned that .night .. by the
negroes. - ' 'A '' -:.
.' Borne of the women and chit
dren became so alarmed that they
left home . and quite a number
gathered "at Mr. W: E. Otif ton 's
and Mr. 8. M Lassiuar's for pro
teotion. -Quite a number of spe
cial policemen were sworn in and
organized . into two 'companies,
commanded . respectively by W.
j. Jenkins, and u u. JtJoyce as
captains. These companies.
armed to the teeth a.nd; loaded
ddw n with " amunition,vputroled
the streets and watched buildii gs
all night, but found ino one
prowling around on mischief
bent. : . vV"-'i-'.'
About eleven o'clock P. M.
Mesa & J. Calvert and F. R
Harris, candidates for the Senate
and House, came In f r&m Jackson
to bring r the election tickets.
They bad not beard of the alarm
so when they were - nau i, as
they were enteringthe town, by
Capt. Jrnkin'scompany they were
taken by surprise, v As joon as
their identity was known they
were permitted to proceed, fuel
ing greatly relieved. :But this
feeling was of short : duration,
Before they reached their desti
nation they were again halted,
this time by Capt Boycg'S com
pany. It was too dark to recog
nize any one except by their
voices. As Capt, Boyce's com
pany lined up about the buggy
their guns gleaming in the dull
starlight, making a warlike ap
pearance. Mess. Calvert and
Harris doubtless felt a little un
easiness, not having been Inform
ed when first halted that there
were two cmpanies. Of course thoy
did not care as to themselves but
they carried with them the elec
tion tickets for use next day. It
is reported that Mr. Calvert was
so overjoyed when be beard the
voice of Capt. Boyce that he
almost leaped from the buggy
with joy. - J
The night passed quietly and
the boys bad a general gocd time
and was but little worse for ser
vice next'day by thmr long watch
during the night.
Election day passed off very
quietly. The best of feeling
seemed to prevail. There was no
intimidation or threats and every
body voted as he pleased.
