The members of thp.« churches took ; nc pari in and had no previous knowl edge of the crimes committed in Mer lin County near or on their lands March 16th and 29th. 1 never before heard a word of scandal against the young woman assaulted on the night of March 16th. She was the daugh ter of godly parent:;, and was care fully reared by them, and thought that friends were near her in another car. No members of the churches were in the party that broke open the jaii and maltreated hei sailant in the early morning hours of March 29th.* 1 was not even acquaint ed with mope than two men of 'hose | who are charged with having been ■ present at the outrage. One lefi be ! fore it was perpetrated, and; I learn ! that Hk> other was intinrdated" to ac company the armed j/oung men from Griffin's Township a other parts of the county: All, oi i urce, were in dignant at the assat ;x>n the young lady," but I greatly regret that they did not leave the essailant in the hands of Ihe law. On -1 wrong does not right another. Griffin's is well known to be one 'of the most industrious, peaceful-, honorable, law abiding soc'ions of the State. I my-' self was at the Skewarkey I'nion meet ir.g at Conoho, near Oak City, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, M;'.rch 27, 28 end 29, and never heard a wotd of the whole matter until th-it Sunday afternoon M.v peoplo, the Primitive Hap' if*: 1 do not cpmmi' or ondon of corruption or violence.

APPRECIATE SUPPORT 1 wish to express my deep sense of appreciation for the support of the men and women, who on T'uesda. night at the Town Primary desired to have me named a candidate for Uhe office of Mayor of Williamston This support was entirely unsolicited as I had refrained from announcini that I was a candidate before tht Primary, and for that very reason, th votes given- to me were more flatter ing. The desire to have a woman fil the office was strong in many heart, in the town, but the will of the Prim ary was against such, and the voice of the people has settled the matter at for the next two years. Th nominee, Mr. R. L. Coburn, is t splendid young man, and will carrj into the office -a healthy enthusiasm that,must produce needed constructive work, and a proper enforcement of law. The Hoard of Aldermen was well elfosen, and the new administration, without doubt, will make history for itself and for Williamston. „ H ATT IE THROWER.
