sie Bradford, who was ravished at
Aberdeen, Harford county, Md., by the
negro (William Black, under arrest here,
came to this city yesterday morning,
accompanied by her sister uncle and
Sheriff Kin-bart, of Harford county,
and at the Eastern police station fully
identified the negro as her assailant.
When he commitbed the assault,
Black wore dark urousers, a white
sweater and a round blue cap. He
afterward went home and discarded
these clothes prior to his flighit to this
city, where he shipped on the oyster
boat aboard of wihieh he was -arrested.
The discarded clothes were brought to
the city, and Biack was made to d rests
in them. Thus attired he appeared
before Miss Bradford, who instantly
nodded to Captain Teague that she
fully identified him. She bad been pre
viously instructed to say nothing in
his presence. The captain whispered
in her nir. "Be sure ihe is the man,
for his life is at stake." Again she
gazed long and earnestly at the negro
and again she nodded. The captain
then ordered Turnkey , Mittendorf to
take him out of the rooni, when Miss
Bradford eaid:
'4He is the man. I coul pick him
out of a thousand, as I saud before."
The unfortunate girl is a handsome,
well developed 'miss of sixteen years.,
who seems crushed at her awful ex

is told by the haggard expression of
her face, and sne has told 'her parents
she wished the- negro had killed her.
