. ?In our Inst issue we noted the
. death of Mr Wilson Griffin. The
Monroe correspondent of the
Charlotte Observer gives the sad
circumstances of his death as follows:
As mentioned in this correspondence
a row days ago, Mr
1 Griffin accidentally foil from his
' buggy, which the pony ho was
driving pulled up against the sides
of a cut., and in the full his leg
was broken. Medical aid was
soon given to him and ho was remouod
to the hospital. Later
such complications arose that it
was found necessary to amputate
' the injured limb and Air Griffin
nover recovered from the shock.
Ho was a popular young man and
the church could not hold the
large congregation that assembled
at his funeral today. A special
conveyance had to ho provided
to c.*rry the floral offerings sent
by friends. They were beautiful
1 and I have never seen so many
flowers at a funeral before One
feature that adds to tlio many sad
1 things about this death is that it
occurred oil the see ?nd anniversary
of his man age to iMiss Ktta
Williamson, who survives him
i with a little daughter only a few
months old.

j. was to get possession of the men

* I boro authorities will have to pay
* l a big expense account, amounting
to several hundred dollars, for
guarding, surgical operations
medical attention, etc, It is,
' therefore, thought best to let the
0 National Government take the pris
' oners and try them on the charge
' it has against them of robbing
* postoffices. Then, when Uncle
' Sam gets through with them, the
Lancaster authorities would like
f to have the men turned over to
1 them.
It is not known here what cvi)
. deuce the North Carolina authorities
have against tho parties in
, connection with the McAdcnsville
f robbery. If the evidence be
I strong Governor Glenn may decide
to hold the men for trial in
j his own State.
j Under an Act of the Legislaj
ture of South Carolina, passed in
1902, a burglary where explosives
are used is punishable with
( life impi isonmcnt, unless there be
a recommendation to mercy by
the jury. It is not likely, therefore,
that if the subjects are first
tried and convicted in Lancaster
I they will ever be called upon to
answer to criminal charges in any
