High Point, June 5. Evading a
mob of nearly 1,000 men, Chief of

shortly after 8 o'clock tonight for

Two other suspects were arrested
at Thomasville tonight and were
brought to High Point and placed in

rounded the jail and there were
threats of lynching, but officers quiet
ed the mob, and it dispersed within a
few minutes.
The alleged attempted assault was
committed on the old Thomasville
road in Randolph county, about four

according to the girl's story, over
powered her, and dragged her several
yards from the road. There he chok
ed her almost to death, but before
he could accomplish his purpose she
screamed, and the negro was fright
ened away. Passers-by took the girl
to her home, and tonight she was un
