Sunday night, Ed Wavne, a native I
South Carolinian, once an operative ' j
in the Cannon cotton factory at this
plact?. stole quietly into the bed room
of Misses Lula and Maggie Ritchie, j
1 and 15 year old daughters of Mr,
John A Ritchie, who Jives in New
Town a V Can non v i ilep wi t h hellish
ntent ' in his heart, Wayne was
drunk and gained entrance through
a window. When reaching the bed
on which lay the slumbering misses
they were awakened instantly, and
at Vonce gaye a'arm, running into
the room occupied by their parents.
At this -juncture Wayne escaped
through an nd window, leaving bis
hat behind, which was picked up
an'd placed in a bureau drawer. The,
young ladies were greatly frightened
and the parents enraged. Mr.
Ritchie endeavored to get a warrant
tor Wayne at 3 o'clock this morn,
mg but could not find a magistrate,
and while up town attending! to the
matter at an early hour after day
light, Wayne re-entered the houde
and ransacked the bureau until his
hat was recover, d, when be took to
the woods; s Mrs. Ritcnie was getting
breakfast at ibis time and was una
ware of .Wayne's presence, A war
rant was obtained but Wayne was on
his way to other parts, going towarda
Davidson College, where he was once
employed. Wayne is a .heavy-set
man with dark moustache- and hair
clipped . short. He is a weaver by
trade. Mr. Ritchie is justly indig
nant at the conduct of Wayne and
will prosecute him to the fullest ex
tent of the law, when caught:
HeDry McCane, an ex-convict and
well known to the criminal courts of
Cabarrus, was lodged in jiil Sunday
night, charged with having entered
the home of a white man living in
No. 1 township, where iMcCane at
templed a nameles3 crime on the
person of Bettie Herron, a daughter
of Daniel Herron, His hellish pur
pose was not accomplished, how.
ever. He was captured and brought
to town and will answer for the
4
charge for which he is held at the
January term of Cabarrus Superior
Court.
It will be remembered that Lacy
Campbell, a negro of thetHarrisburg
section, was tried and acquitted at
this term "of court for insulting the
Herron woman on the public highs
way, and it is thought that by
Campbell being acquitted, McCane
would go a little further. V
