WHITE MAN
CUT BY NEGRO
; H Snplflrrnvp SIichpH Rv
VI 111 UUVl^l V T V U1UUUVU IS J
Robert Fox On Last
Saturday.
.John Henry Snelgrove, a well
known young farmer residing about
5 miles west of Lexington was seriously
cut by a negro man known as
"Fox" Saturday afternoon at the
front entrance to Caughman-KaMilier
Co's. store. It seems that few
words were passed between Snel
grove and the negro. Snelgrove waa
standing just inside the store door
and as "Fo*'' entered, he pushed the
door open against Snelgrove, causing
him to say something to "For"
about walking over him, when 'Tor'
immediately began cutting Snelgrove
with a large pocket knife, cutting
him in the face several times, one
stab going through to his mouth an*
splitting his tongue. He hlso re*
reived several stabs in the back and
shoulders.
Snelgrove was rushed to the Baptist
Hospitai in Columbia as it was
thought that he was fatally hurt.
The physicians had considerable tro*
ble in stopping the flow of blood
which was very profuse especially
from the gash in his tongue. The
last report received from the hospital
was to the effect, that he is r*
proving some but is not yet out of
danger.
"Fox" is said to be one of the negroes
brought to Lexington several
years ago from the Hagenback and
Wallace circus, to stand trial for
the murder of Paul Williams, a young
man from Columbia who was riding
on the Circus train. He was arrested
late Saturday night by Sheriff
Miller and is now confined in the
county jail awaiting the outcome of
Snelgrove's wounds.
