THE PINEHURST OUTLOOK
to Squire Graham's came in sight
of the house there was one man
out at the corn crib who slipped
under it without being seen and
Archibald Peterson was sitting in
the house by the fire who jumped
into a bed at the lower end of the
"house and drew the bed clothes
over him. One of the young
ladies then with great presence
of mind, took up a broom and
stood by the bedside waving it
over him very deliberately as if
keeping off the flies. When the
men rushed into the house they

ing their horses they galloped
over to his house and found him
dying.
THE END OF PETER BLUE
Taking the road now towards
Rockfish, before they reached it
Captain Culp rode on ahead to see
and protect his old friend Mc
Lean. When the men arrived he
told them to pass on for McLean,

the spot. This was sorely to be
lamented, for McBride was a
sound Whig, one of Captain Mc
Cranie's men and was then at

been at the Piney Bottom, and
without any inquiry or waiting
for explanation they recklessly
shot him down.
