Tne Gallant Ex-Confederate Sup
posed to Dave Been Fatally
T7oundedA Christmas Epi
sode. - - ' " ,
For ; several days ' past," ; rumors
have been afloat that Mr. Robert
Graham, of this - county, ' was shot
a nd ; mortally v wounded Christmas
eve,but have w'erefrainedfrom saying
any thing about it. until we - could
give the fadts. Yesterday,' one who
attended Mr. Graham's bedside was
in! the city,' and we publish the story
as he" gave it to us. Mr. Graham; he
states, left town for his home Christ
mas Eve in his buggy, accompanied
by a friend, and as they were passing
Jamison's f blacksmith shop, on ; the
suburbs, an explosion similar to that
of a heavily loaded - gun was heard
close behind. Mr: Graham, 'shriek
ing with pain, called out to his friend
that he was badly shot under the left
shoulder blade, and "begged him to
convey him to his home with all
possible dispatch. He friend urged
the mule forward by all the means in
his power, alarming the neighbor
hood aef he traveled with the dis
tressing news of Mr. Graham's mis
fortune. Arriving at the house of !
his friend, Mr. -Wilson, Mr. rf Graham
begged him, as the last friendly act
he couldl ever perform, to assist in
conveying . him home, : Mr. Wilson
waited for neither : coat or saddle,
but mounted his horse bareback; and
proceeded to render all the assistance
hecould. : They had gone but a short
distance when Mrt Graham called out
to his friends that he could proceed
no further that he was rapidly dying
of internal hemorrhage, and besought
them to stop and save him the aiu
of further travel, but they succeeded
in propping him up with pillows and
bnggy cushions and continued caus
tiously. until they reached his home,
whence was tenderly lifted from bis
conveyance to his bedV Scarcely had
he reached home before the news
of his sad calamity had spread abroad
in the neighborhood. Friends and
neighbors rushed in to assist in doing
all they could for his comfort. Upon
his: stating that the internal hem
morrhage had become much worse,
and that it was impossible for him to
live until morning, a r preacher wad
sent for to minister to him in his last
few moments he hadon earth. : Upon
his arrival, the minister prayed fer
vently for, his wounded friend," and
above the solemn tones of the preach
er's voice, could be heard the piercing
screams of his heartbroken wife and
children, and the lamentations of his
many friends. ,
For some cause the doctor who had
been summoned as : soon as the dis
tressing news reached his home, was
slow in coming. His friends present
thought that : they would probe the
wound for the ball! and possibly i in
that way relieve the internal hemo-
rhage. Amid . the . protests of - Mr.
Graham to let him die in. peace and
quiet, that : it was useless to try to
save him, they, finally-: succeeded in
baking off his wooden leg, which takes
he place ' of the one he lost in the
battles around Richmond .while gai-
antly . defending his native South.
Giving the patient time to recover
from the fatigue 01 removing ins clo
thing, they made a thorough search
of .his body to discover the nature of
the wound. After - a close examina
tion they could not discover any bul
let hole, and finally assuring Mr. Gra
ham that he was mistaken, that he
was not shot at all,; he quietly com
posed himself and fell into a sweet
slumber, when his ; many assembled
friends dispersed. - i , , - . t
Mr. Graham was m town Saturday
and telegraphed to Baltimore for a
detective to ferret out the mischiev
ous miscreant who let off the cannon
cracker under his unsuspecting mule,
on the aforesaid Christmas eve, and
woe' betide the boy. or man :when he
overtakes him. . - - ,

morning; the i burglars being mere
boys who wore masks and conducted
themselves in regular dime novel
style. Theodore Wolfe r lives in a
small house,' a little apart from ! his
neighbors. His wife, .; who was alone'
in tne nouse, was abed and asleep.
She was awakened by a knock at the
ront door,- accompanied by a sum
mons, ''open this door or we 11 break
it down, we are robbers, " and then
while the woman almost fainted with
fear, the threat was executed, and the;
marauders stood before her and de
manded: Where is your money and
your , silverware ?n. The woman de
tected the voice of -a boy ' attempting
to speak like a man. : ' She refused to
give up her. valuables and one of the
rumans threw her .upon the floor..
The others went through the house
scattering everything to the right and
eft and pocketing , whatever, struck
their fancy. . When v the house; had
been. thoroughly ntled,-. the two
youthful robbers made good their es
cape and hava not yet been arrested.
