One of the ruffians gave him a severe blow in the. temple, which prostrated him, and nearly proved fatal. An attempt was made to, rifle his pock ets, but the sudden appearance of po liceman Joseph Cutlar drove off the assassins. Mr. Cutlar blew for assis tance, and officer Martin soon arrived. Mr. Carraway was carried to his resi dence, bleeding profusely, and Dr. King summoned, who did what he could to relieve the sufferer, and staunch the flow of blood. STATEMENT OF THE VICTIM.
