It is admitted by one of the young men that they were drinking when they drove to the Jarvis home nnd called for the daughter. Mr. Jarvis’ Story is that two of thC young men appeared before the bouse about 10:30 at night and de manded to see his daughter. He told the boys that the girt was 1n bed and they could not see her. The boys insisted on seeing tbc girl, but were repeatedly re fused. A few minutes later all four re inforced the demands to see the daugh ted and when refused again, they began making threats and proceeded to throw rocks at the house. After giving the in vaders warning that he would shoot if thev kept on and seeing that his warn ings were fruitless, Mr. -Jarvis let John Sipes have the first load of shot in his j face, head and neck. This did not stop the invasion and Arthur Bunch got a full load at close range hi his breast, head and neck. This was effective and I the partv then turned back toward) Statesville for hospital treatment for the two wounded members. It was found that Sipes’ wounds were not very deep, but Bunch did not fare so well, and his condition is considered very senous. Charges of forcible trespass will be brought against the young men in court. The first Sunday-school' in America is said to have been founded' at Beverly, Mass., in 1810.
