The Clerk read letters from the
South Eastern Underwriters Assn.,
and the North Carolina Inspection
and Rating Bureau, repeating
their demands of the past several
months that the Town of Louis
burg employ a trained fireman to
stay on duty in the Fire House

? ed to a third class rating. Instead
of its present second class rating.
Mr. M. S. Davis explained to the

the policy holders about $2,500.00
per year in increased Are insur
ance premiums, and that under
the third class classification It
will be Impossible for the proper
ty owners to insure beyond 75%
protection. The question, there
fore, was whether to employ the
number of firemen demanded by
the South Eastern Underwriters
Assn. at an additional expense of
$720.00 or to submit to a third
?k class rating which will cost the
V property owners an estimated ex
pense of f2.500.00 in increased
premiums.

lowing motion was passed: "That

ploy a trained man to stay on
duty in the Fire House every day
and to sleep In the Fire House
every night, at a salary not to
exceed 150.00 per month; that an
additional trained man be em
ployed to sleep in the Fire House
every night, at a salary not to ex
ceed 110.00 per month; that
these men be under the supervis
ion of the Chief of Police; tbat
the services of the present Truck
Driver be dispensed with effective
September 1, 1934."
A motion prevailed to employ
Oraham Holmes to serve on day
duty at the Fire House and to
sleep in the Fire House every
night.
A motion prevailed, that thei
Bleeping quarters at the Fire
House be put In good condition.
The Clerk read a request from

LARGE CROWD
CHASES NE
GRO ATTACKER
MnJ 1, Wilton, of Near
Ofteside Victim; rive
Arrested As Suspects and
Held For Investigation
Fully two hundred aitisens of
Prankltn and adjoining coMttleu
joined Sheriff F. N. Splvey and
his officers in the search for the
negro who criminally attacked
Mrs. J. B. Wilson, near Ingleslde
Friday morning. The search last
ed till around one o'clock that
night, during which time Sheriff
Spirey arrested five negro sus
pects and placed them in jails at
places unknown to the general
public. Those arrested and held
for examination are Ben Wright. ;
Otis Daniel, Thurston Mitchell,'
Tommle Wright and Monkey
Wright.
The attack occurred about 10
o'clock Friday morning while Mrs.
Wilson was gathering roasting
ears in a corn Held In front of
the home of the late J. R. Shear
in. There was evidence of a ser
ious struggle as the woman was
forced from the corn field to a
small woods and undergrowth.
The first indication of trouble was
when Mr. Max Marks and a Mrs.
Turner Harria, who live at the old
Shearln home heard the screams
of Mrs, Wilson and started to find
out the trouble. Meeting her on
her way out to the road. The of
ficers were notified and Sheriff
Splvey accompanied by Chief of
Police C. E. Pace and Constable
J. P. Moore went immediately to
the scene. Bloodhounds were sent
for and soon Mr. Allen, of Eu
field, was on the scene with his
dogs, and traced a track to Ben
Wright's home. Several other
tracings were made but with no
direct result?.
After nightfall the crowd grew
In number and feelings with the
result that they had three negroes
In a car and it was easy to guess
trouble was brewing. Sheriff
Splvey succeeded in influencing
them to let him have the negroes
and he spirited them to an un
known jail.
Afcout the only information the
officers could get to conduct their
search aside from the tracing of
the dog was the information giv
en by Mrs. Wilson that it was a
big black negro, weighing about
200 pounds and having the big
thick african Hps. It seems that
no one saw the negro except Mrs.
Wilson, whose physical and ner
vous system had undergone such a
shock that she relaxed Into un
consciousness.
Whether or not the negro ac
complished the purpose of his at
tack la not definitely known, and
the negroes have not been Identi
fied by Mrs. Wilson. The time
for the preliminary hearing has
not been set.
After Information leaked out
that Sheriff Splvey had safely
landed the five negroes In jails
the crowd quieted down and grad
ually dispersed.
Officers visiting the neighbor
hood the next day detained a negro
named Williams for having too
much to say about the matter, but
later released him after being as
sured he knew nothing of the
suspects.
Mrs. Wilson is a sister to Rev.
Mr. Hilllard, pastor of Mt. GUead
Christian church.
