H, Onffln after he been traced by bloodhounds shortly after the conimission of the crime, was still at Uperty late tonight?hunt, ed onljrby SherilfQriffip and his depu ties and a handful of citizens compos ing his posse. The rain (tad gotten the better of what yesterday was de scribed as a mob. Ofle||da at Scene State Pardon Commissioner Edwin Bridges and O. H. England, Private Secretary to Governor McLean, were with the Sheriff to observe develop ments, but no troopp had been called to the scene. Bradshaw was reported seen and surrounded in several places but of. titers investigating the reports re turned empty-handed. Th^ negro, once in the bands of the law, and once the target of alusilade of posse bullets, made his' escape from W. G. Boswell, Bailey policeman, and twq companions, by a ruse while the men were rushing him away ?rom the scene of the crime to avoid possible mob violence upon orders of Sheriff Griffin. With their prisoner, the threg men left the main road and were beaded over a wagon nath to the Borne of W. T. Strickland, where it was planned to hoid him nntll he could be removed to a place of aate.iqeeplng. " Wanted To Pray Near the Strickland.frame the negro asked Boswell to stop and let htm get ffit and pray. -? ' He landed running, toot out across a cornfield, and easily outdistanced his pursuers. Bloodhounds again plac ed on hiy trail but they lost him when he took to a pond. Early this morning he was flushed again at McMlUan'8 Lumber Camp where he was attempting to file off the handcuffs. Deputy Ambrose Lewis, Hugh donee and Dolph Johnston clos. ed Upon him. fired nine shots at him as he broke for liberty, and failed to bplM him down. Bloodhounds fulled again toifoilow his trail when he crorfs ' ed a pond. Latest reports today had it that be had been seen in the StanEop* section, but the "downpour impeded" the search and again he eluded his pprsners. Identified By Vfcttm The negro was identified by the victim. He was described as being five feet ten inches in height, bald beaded with a scar on his head and another on his knee. _He is 30 years old, and was employed hfcr a tar met living near the Earp home on the Nash ville.Balley road. The negro was' not well known in the vicinity and was said to have only recently have come titers. The crime was one associated in this region with the tobacco curing , aeason when able-bodied men are busj 21 hours a day at the kilns. Although the father was at home the negro en. tered the girl's room, wrapped her in a sheet, and took her into the woods about 250 yards from th?Tiouse tc commit the crime, he w*s asleep on the back porch?dead tired from his work curing tobacco. The mother said aha heard hei daughter's atlfiled cries, but was not aroused fuUy lp time to summon het husband and halt the abductor. The parents searched the house, and not finding the girl, were at_ a loss to explain her absence until she return ed, bringing the sheet with her that the negro had used to wrap her up in and take her out of the house. She was taken to Bailey where phy sicians examined her and reported that she was not seriously injured. The girl was able to give a detailed description Of her assailant and tc IdenUfy him when brought "Before her. ItNras at this juncture that possi bility of mob' vlplence loomed. When the girl identified the negro, who-had been traced by bloodhounds to a near by home, her brother William Bailey, 20, threatened to snoot him. Other bystanders acted threateningly, hut Sherlfi Griffin persuaded Them to let the law take its course and" dlspAched the negro by the wagon road td the Strickland home in charge of Officer Boewefi, from whotn he made his es. cape.

Three shata were fired and Bradahaw pitched headlong ever a stomp on hjp face, grunted once and fu dead.
