WHBI* TUB hihp coweg I(V , A sweet laced woman and a sweet faced child are wandering among the shipping docks of the great city. The woman is plainly drraeed, )>ut evidently in her best aline, and there is a touch of gemilitv in her finery, in the real lace collar, relics of better day*, perhaps; the pearl earrings and the neat gloves. The child is neau ly dressed, too, and, as she clasps tie woman's hands, looks lovo at her guar" j.dian. But the woman's face is not at its best now ; a careworn look, ami a laint wrinkle upon the pale forehead that ayes her and lessens the charm ot her fea tures. She is inquiring of the dockmen, of the stevedore, of the loungers about -the wharves, whether the brig Good Luck lia3 coma in. She always receives the same reply to her eagci questions, for the brig Good Luck has be.Mi lost a month ago. dashed on a lee shore and grouud to pieces J>y the sea, and will never come in—ucver—never more. If thev told her she wouldn't believe them, for the woman and her child have supreme faith that the brig Good Luck will come in soon wilhjeargo and crew, though they have been asking the same question and same prayer for mauy and many a day. Then she goes across the street and winds her way alon«, r the bales and boxes and passing carts, and through all the hubbub and bustle of the and cliirbs a flight of stairs to where the brig owners have their are used to seeing her They smile sadly] when she enters with the child, and look signiK leant ly at one another, as much as to say: 'Poor thing! she's mad. No wonder, no wonder!' Mad. Yes, she is mad with'hope de ferred.' with anxiety to meet her hus> j band, Caleb Shelter, master ol the brig J Good Luck; to meet the master of the brig, her husband and the father ot her child. Why does he stay away from her so long? 'ls the Good Luck in yet?' she asks of a clerk. •Not yet, ma'am.' 'She is expected, of course, to-day?' •Ot course.' 'There's a vessel coming in now. 1 see the tall masts. Look! Look pointing out of llie officj window to the river front. 'Maybe that's it!' Ellio, dear, look I there's father's vessel, with lather on board!' The child clasps her little hands at the sight. 'Sorry to say that ain't it, ma'am.' says the cleik, relapsing into his calculations and paying no more attention to the wo man. She stares out of an open window at the approaching vessel drawn by a tug, and then with a blank look upon her lace, and a moan that ia heartrending, says: •No, Nellie, no! That is net the Good Luck. I see the figure head. The figs nre hoad of Good Luch is an angel; a while aud gold angel. No, no, that isu'i it. , '.But papa will soon come home, won k he, mamma?' whispered the child. Old Mr. Tawmau, who is the head of the establishment here, now comes from behind his desk, aud approaching the woman, says In a kindly tone: 'Mrs. Shelter, sit down; make yourself as comfortable as you can iu a dingy office like this. Here, little one, como here, give me a kiss. A bright, pretty little dear, Mrs. Shelter.' ■'She looks pale,' said the mother. •She i» tired; she has been walking too mbeb.' The old gentleman sits down and lifts the little girl on fiis knees aod kisses bar. She winds her anns about his neck and exclaims: •You'll tell n»y papa to come soon, won't you I' v r* \ *>■ t , •Yes, -dear.' ii * K ' It was the habit of ibis firm to pay a sort of pension monthly to Uie widows of captains who were lost in their service. It was not much ot a stipetd, being only half pay, put It was certainly a blessing in very many cases. Mrs. Shelter had aK ways received her husband's money here, while be was at sea. or it was sent to her when she was sick or the weather was bad. (' : i . *i •. •Ah, Mr. Tawmen, I'm sure the Good Luck will be In to-day.' •Certainly it will. What's to hinder itr be answers. He pot tbe child down and goes over to bis desk, and unlocking his drawer he takes out an aecount book and begins writing a receipt , Then goes over into the cashier's room. While he is there the telegraph clerk calls him over, i Click, clickity click I goes the "»£; instrument repealing its dot Ad dash m *liear that?* says the operator. •That's GRAHAM, N C-, WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER news for you I' The proprietor cou'.d read every word by its sound. 'lt's like a message Irom God,' says Mr. Tawman, reverently, «I must not tell her.' " lie comes back to where tho woman is sitting, his face is flushed with emotion; some strange excitement. He throws into her lap a bundle of bank notes. ' 1 here, Mrs. Shelter, now go home. Take a car at the door.' 'Oil. I'm not tiied. And I should like to be here when the brig comes in. But I thank you so much, so much.' 'Here, little one,' says the good heart ed I iiwniaii, 'here's something toryou to buy candieS"with.' He puts into her tiny outstietched hand a bright quarter ofa dollar, and laughs at the wonder and delight of the little recipient. 'l'll keep this for my papa.' Poor little tiling, she is weary unto sleep. She cuddles herself iu the big chair and sinks into slumber iu an ins slant. •Now. Mrs. Shelter, you've had uodiu ner,' says Tawman. 'Oh, yes,«ir.' 'Yesterday, perhaps, buf I mean to day. Go down with Mr. Pelton, there, our young man, and get something to eat. You see we have arrangements for the comforts of our clerks. We give them a hot dinner, and a good one,too. There'# nobody there.' 'Go down there at.d ask the waiter, George,' addressing Mr. Pelton, whom he had summoned, to give this good la dy a cup ot lea and a piece of toast, some chicken, and all that. Then paus ing a moment, as if propriety and |pbJN anthropy, are struggling for mastery in his mind. 'No, no, George. Tell Henderson to send the dinner up into the room here, that's better!' The young man loaves the room. Then Mr. Tawman enters Ihe office agaiu and consults the telegraph operator. 'Send this message at once, Mr. Lind» say if you please.' He writes something; and the operator click* it off at once. It's a long message. a ; very long message indeed; but the presidents message itselt is not ball so important, so interesting to those whom it concerns. Then by the time the message is sent, the dinner is ready in Mr. Tawman'* private office, when Mrs. Shelter partakes ot it, but does not think proper to waken the weary child that she may eat also. Then Mr.Tawman says: Nowyoahad better go. I'll see to the child; 111 bring the little girl up with ine to night. 'No, no!' exclaims the mother. 1 must have my little Ellie with me always sir. You are so very good, .hough, air; so very good! And is there no news ot the Good Luck?' •Not a word, I'm sorry to say/ „ •It can't he possible. The brig must come in to day.' •I'm sure I hope so, with all my heart and soul, Mrs. Shelter,' •I know you do,' she responded with a sigh. •Now go. I'm sorry yon have to wa key the child, but I suppose you ceu't help it. •Come, Ellie,' says the mother, touch ing her lightly on the shoulber. The child with a start awakens and cries, 'ls it my papa? Dear, dear, papa. Thou, seeiug her disappointment. >he burst into tears. •Don't cry, dear, don't cry. The brig will come in. Don't cry P The good old man speaks soothingly to the sobbing child; and the mother catching her bend walks slowly awl Badly ewajr, followed by Mr. Tawman, who lifts the little girl down stairs and helps both her and her mother iuto a car. The next morning the women is again loitering about tbe wharvea with the same agoniaiug inqnii y. She ng»ii» puts the question to the wberfmen, and agaiu only reoeives tbe same answer. Then,as before she seeks the office of tbe brig owners, still accompanied by her UtUo girl and asks: •Das tbe brig Good Luck come In yetr •Not yet, ma'an.' Sbe sighs and looks out of the window at the shipping. Bbe says she will wait lor Mr. Tawman and sits down. •I'm sorry tbe brig is'ut in yeti' •Will it be in 10-divT^ •I hope so.' Aad be goes behind bit desk »ud looks ofer his letters. He lies not loug been engaged in his eorreipous dence when a scream horn the woman startles bini. She has risen and Is pointing excitedly out sftbe window. 'Here is a ship coming la, look! look!. •That's not it,' say* a cJerk that is a schooner.* •Oh, no!' adds Mr. Tawman,tbats not the Good Lack.' 'lt is! It io! She darts from the office dragging the child after her, runa across the bustling wharf out to the very edge of the waters Mr. Tawman rushes to tho window, opens it and calls to her. To iio purpose, however. A|l the clerks cluster about the window to catch her. 'The woman is mad !'Mya one." She is going to drown herself.' Tawman says quietly to the telegraph operator: 'lt is the Mary.' The schxmer is being lowed up the river by a fug. She ijjnakitig prepara tions to anchor in the stream opposite the whurf. All this lime Mrs. Shelter ia standing in the midst of the crowd of ex cited people waving her handkerchief, and «he little girl is waring hers. * 'Look! look there! There is a man overboard! cried one of tbe clerks. A cry of alarm goes up from tbe wbarf. 'Heavens!'exclaimed Mr. Tawman, thoroughly aroused. 'What does thai mean?' • . 1 .*■ \ ■He is swimmiug like a fish,' says a e'erk. •He has landed- nark at (he cheers!' 'Look! look shouted the operator. She is htigghijf.him: so is (he little girl. It is Captain Shelter!' 'Thank God!' oxclsimed Tawman, and prr.y heaven she may uot sink under the shock. Poor woman. How she clinjts to tbe* drenched mau. Dear! dear I' Then lie puts on Ills hat and runa down the stops like a boy, and darta over to where husband and wile aud child are united and happy. 'Ah! he exclaimed.shaking tbe cap-, tain by tlie hand, and not caring for the gaping and wonderlug crowd all around this is good luck, isn't it, cb? Did yoo get my telegram?. When ibe man can speak be answers: •Yes.' , ~— '1 planned it all!' chaffers old Taw man. You see I got a dispatch yesterday from tbe Breakwater, saying tbat Capt.

[Prom The Observer.] My name is Robert Bos well. I am about 32 or 33 years old. I was born and raised in Caswell county, North Caroli na. 1 was the slave of Mr. Thorn. Boe» will.' After the surrender 1 worked four or five years for varioos citizens of Car* well county/amongothers Mr. Minjrard. Mr. Jeremiah Lea, Mr. Cliealey Tarner aud Mr. William Turner. 1 then came to Orange county and worked for Mrs. Green a short while, and then lor Mr. Jsmes It. Biackwell. I lived on Mr. Blackwell's place nearly all the time 1 stayed about Durham. 1 first met Nan* nie Biackwell while working for Cbesley Turner: she was living there at that time. I then began to treat her aa my wife, although we Were never married» and wlieu i came to Orange county 1 brought her with me. We told people we were married in order to keep from brlug indicted. Slir rtly after i .vent to Durham 1 got acquainted with licbacca Anu Lyou. We both went t) live on Mr. Blackwell's land about the same lime. About eight or niufc months afterwards we began to have to do wlih each other. Matters went ou in that way for about six montlis, when 1 began to go to ber house and stay whenever her husband, Ned Lyou, was away from home. She did my oooking aud washing most of the tin.e. 1 suppose we must have lived In that manner four or five years, though I lived with Nannie Biackwell part of the lime. Wbenover I staid with Beck, Nannie would complain and quarrel with me. end Beck would complaiu with me wbeu 1 staid with Nannie; so they kept me in a fusa nearly ail the time. About a year before Ned Lyon died. Beck told me if he and Nannie were out of the way, we might get marjleJ, and said if I would Kill Nannie, she would put eld Ned out of llie way. I agreed to do it. ■ Some lime afterwards she bought a bottle ol Crton oil and gave him some in his dinner, it made him very sick, but did not kUI him. She gave it to him several limes afterwards but did not sncceed. She then bought a box ot rat poison from Mr. Ab. Tiuuevat Lyou Jt Carr's drug store. Ned was then working at Mr. Blackwell's fact or v. He would not go hame at If o'clock, but she frequently carried his dinner to him. She mixed a doae ot the rat poison in his dinner one day and canied u to him. He ate it and was made mighty sick, and Harry Sparkman bad to haul him home in a wagon Bbe appeared to be very sorry for Ned and sent and got some medicine for him. But when she gave it to him she won Id mix some ot tlie poison with it. Ned lived for several days. Tlie day before Ned died I went alter Dr. Thomas, but he could not go, but sent some medicine and Beck mixed some ol the poison with it and gave it to him. Ned told Bcek the day before be died that she was the cause of his death, ami it was the truth, tbo' tbose standing around did know it. Beck Lyon showed me the box containing the poison. The ryison waa of a sort ol pinkish color, but did not get a good look at it as some* body waa coming and she put the box back in her pocket very* quickly. Ned died on time in -May, about two and a half years ago. Tin j night alter Ned died Beck sent lor me and I staid all nigbt With her. She then I 12 1879 told me that she had done what she agreed to do, and killed old Ned, and ! had to do my part and kill Nannie. ] agreed to it, but put it ofl. She kept on ultcr me, and she and >'armie kept quar relling so much I tint I concluded to go away. 1 went to Raleigh and worked for Mr. Jeff fisher about a mouth and returned to Durham and tried to get Beck to go back with mc, but she refus ed, and said she would havo nothing to do with me unless 1 did what 1 said 1 would, and kill Nannie. 1 refused and then went back to Raleigh. 1 wrote to Beck time and again to come to ltalcigh, but she would not. In August of the same year, there was abig camp meeting about two miles west' of Uillsboro, and, as there wm to be an excursion to it, Iroiu Raleigh, i determined to gn, hoping to see Beck. When I got to Durham she got on the train with Jim Cozart and others. She would not Imve anything to do with mo ou the train, but alter we got to Hillsboro, while the preaching was going on, she and I went to the spring and walked some distance into the woods and sat dowu ou the side of the hill. She then began to abuse me about the w ayl I had doue her, and said 1 had not stood up to my promise; that kbe had put old Ned out oUhfl way, and now I had ran away ami rejt her; that she and her children were sick and suffering. After abusing me awhile, 1 told her I did not want to do it,* but as I had agreed to it, 1 would stick to it*- Bhc iheu proposed that 1 should poison her, but I told Iter that oould not be done, that the best way was to kill he*. """ me I bad bet* ter mind. that a rope" would be put neck. Wo timn agreed I should go back to llalcgli fnid come up to Durham next Saturday night. Slie told me to come to ber bouse and let her know be fore 1 did it, and 1 told her | would. We then went back to where tin preaching waa going on. When wo got on the train, we talked about it agaiu before we reached Durham. 1 went to R.-ilcigh, and on tbe next Saturday some limo ar ter dinner, I left. Ualeigh and walked up lo Durham, reaching there about one or two o'clock at iiiglit. Instead of going to Beck's bouse. I went to Nanny's and knocked at tbe door; she asked who wasthere, I told Iter Tom Bailey; she then said, 'Rob is away Irom home and 1 dou't let anyone in alter I have laid down.' After talking awhile I told her who I was, she let me in. I sal dowu and talked with her awhile, she then got up and walked out into tho yard aud brought iu some clothes that were liangx iug on the fence and put them iu a cor ner. As the stooped dowu 1 struck her with and old axe I had found in the yard and knocked her down, 1 then cot ber throat with tbe knife Bock had giyeu me wbieh used to belong to Ned Lyon. I then got started away and had gotten near to the old well and saw Nanny com ing oat of tlifl house, she got to the aaw dust pile, when I caught her aud finished her and picked.her np and carried tier to tbe boase and laid her iu it. My oldest bad waked up by this time aud tcld me Nanny was bleeding, I picked bim up and carried bim lo Beck's house. I went to tbe back door, aud walked iu. The light waa burning, and Beck was lying ou tbe bed partly dressed; I waked " ber up and told her I had killed Nanny, as I had promised, and I wauted ber to take care of my boy. She said: "You old tool why did you not come here first aud let me know about it, as you promised. You will certainly be hung.' 1 iheu ask' ed ber agaiu if sbo would take carc of my boy. She aaid: 'No, take him away from here. I have enough children to take care of myselt." I iheu said be fore tbev should stay by tlHSinselves i would stick fire to the house and burn them up, She then told me to go away, and she would let me know when times got better. She then kissed mc, and i left. I took the boy back to the house and put bim in it aud shut the door. 11 then set the house on fire and started back to Raleigh, and reached Mr. fish- 1 er'a farm about 1 o'clock Sunday. 1 staid there till Tuesday, when 1 was told that a woman and children had,been murder ed at Durham, aud I was thought to be the one that did it, and had better leave.
