The Durham Sun says : The white
man who struck this city Sunday,
and who has been goingaround with
an arm in a sling, begging bur citi

Raleigh, where he will no doubt al
s beg for help. There is , some-

i He secured several dollars from our
citizens, but exactly how much could
not be learned. Whether bis arm
is really hurt or not, we are not able
