ratally Attacked.
The followinc was taken from the
Charlotte Observer and relates to a
gentleman well known in this tsity:
"A very mysterious affair occurred
in the city Saturday night about
half nast 10 o'clock. Mr. W.
Patterson of New Berne, who travels
for Whitman & Co.. of Philadelphia,
was the victim of a very brutal as
sault made by an unknown man on
West Fifth street, near the raiiroaa.
Mr. Patterson is well known in
this city, as he has been traveling
here for rears. Uis relatives live iu
New Berno.' He arrived here early
last week tnd registered at tne
Ruford. He sells to Jj'asnacnt, ana
Saturday had taken an order from
him for auite a nice bill of goods.
Saturday night ho was in the store
about 10 o'clock. Miss uessie jhc-
Carer, the young lady who clerks
in the store, started onto! the store
home. As she was alone, Mr,
Patterson, with the gallantry ior
which he in noted, offered to see her
home. They went down Trade and
nn Clarkson street to the old ).
Irwin house, where Miss McCarver
lives. Mr. Patterson remained at
thn house for a few minutes, and
then started to leave. He remarked
to Miss McCarver that he hardly
knew bow to get back up town. She
told him to keep right up mu
street and he would come to Tryon,
tho Street the hotel was on. Mr.
Patterson loft, ccinz np Fifth, as
she directed, lie walked along
whistling until after he passed the
railroad. Jnst after leaving Ihe
railroad a man came up behind him
and struck him fearful blow across
the mouth with a sundbag, The
blow almost knocked him down
Before bo could recovers u second
blow followed, tnis time in tlie eye
Mr. Patterson put his hand be
hind him to his hip pocket, and his
assailaut, thinking ho was going to
draw his eun, ran.
Mr. Patterson was groping ins
way along Fifth street when he
camo up with Mr. Jim Steele. The
latter got a carriage and took him
to the hotel. A physician was cum
moncd and Mr. Patterson assisted
to bed. lie was found to be in a
bad condition. His face was terri
bly beaten up. His nose was broken
and one eve was so swollen yester
day that it wes entirely closed. He
has no idea who his assailant was,
bevond the fact that he was whito.
Mr. Patterson had money aud his
watch and chain on his porson, but
no attempt was made to rob him.
He is at a loss to account lor the
attack, other than that he was
taken for some other man. It will
be some days beore he is able to bo
out"
A telegram received last night
stated that Mr. Patterson was better
but would be unable to be around
for several days.
