ANOTHER TRAGEDY
~riATtms& BAMY
Youthful BloAiltr Slays Man Whom
He Allege* Beported His Operation
of Blind Tiger; Denton Said To
Have Very Bad Fast; Cltlsens of
the Bailey Section Are Indignant
and Besentfal Over the Unfortunate
Affair
white boy from near Bailey, U In the
Nash county Jail and, under the North
Carolina juvenile law, it la bgrd to
conjecture just what- the courts will
hare to do in holding this young re
negade to account tor a series ot
crimes in his community, the -most
serious ot which is the wgy-taylng
and killing C O. Tant as the latter
was on his way from Bailey Monday
morning to his home near that town.
From what can be gathered of the
affair that has aroused coariderable
indignation in the Bailey section it
seems that young Denton "Bed it in
for" Tant, whom Denton adieused of
haring reported the operation ot a
still by the lad. Following the turn
up Young' Denton made _ threats
against Tant and on Monday morning
while Tant was on his wagon. pro.
cending from Bailey and when' pass
ing near a barn In Ule vicinity of
Denton's home, tha boy secreted him
self behind the bam and poured a
load of shot Into Tant, who fell from
his wagon as the team took flight
down- the road.- Parties not tar dis
tant heard the report of the gun and
a crowd quickly gathered. Just at
that time Deputy Dan Blasette, who
was on the way to Denton's home to
summon him before the County Ju
venile Judge, saw the boy rush from
a Held. The officer gave pursuit and
captured the lad, but upon nearing
his place of hiding and beat it across
the ?c?n? of th? shooting th? ofllotr
thought it best to carry the hoy to
Bailer and then 1 make a further ? Iif*
vestfgatlon. Denton was placed in
the town lock.up and while Officer
Diauuf f a arm a Wawins, a nun^iftiru mm?
paired~to his gutomobtie tire, the lad
began - tearing dewn the wooden
structure In which he was placed. The
local poflceqtag and others who gath
ered about the place were defied by
the young desperado- who threatened
everyone who approached him with a
dangerous piece of timber whtqli Den
ton flourished in a threatening man
ner. Th?' fluicgiy overpower
ed him and he was brought to Nash.
vlUe and placed in jail.
Young DentOn had a had reoord In
that community, according to -reports
now coming in, the lad having been
previously engaged In conduet as or
dinarily would bring a youngster be
fore the courts. It Is alleged that
he has made many threats against
the officers who took him in custody
and he does not seem concerned over
the dastardly manner In which he
sent Tant Into eternity.
Tant was rushed to his home and
later to the hospital at Wilson, but
his wounds were so serious that he
died the morning following the shoot
ing. The information is that Tant
leaves a wife and several children
and a host of friends who are some
what stirred with deep indignation
and resentment at the youthful slay,
