Nix, who Is shortly to he given a trial In (ireouylllc county on a charge of having committed an almost unbelievable' crime und who ' .-.cenis to admit part or t!ie charge, was 'once convicted In the courts of Ander son county but fled the co.inly und , state before sentence could he passed. j.'.U the office of the Anderson county j clerk of court a sealed sentence now awaits him for having committed as Jjjsnult and battery ot a high and aggra-j j The old charge came to Ugh:. vben| I Greenville county ' authorities inter- j I.viewed F. F.. Nunnally, once a prosper, our. farmer of this section, but now an Inmate of the Greenville county home. Nunnully says that Nix was responsi ble for his downfall, caused him to , lose bis wife and all his property and upon one occasion, in company with two other men, came to Nuonally's house and tried to kill htm. This is the .case in which Nix was convicted here.and the musty old court records in the Anderson office, for th? court of general sessions .p^,'.. October, 1892, show, that every Word Nunnully now tells about the case ,1s true. Toe re cords show that Nix and Bub Brooks , were arrested in this county and giv en trial on a charge,of having assault ed Nunnslly and beat him. up and evi dence of other witnesses showed that i the charge was a true one. However, 1 when the Jury '.retUM?ed a .verdict of guilty both the defendants ' hud tied the country and they had never been heard of from that duyiuntll Nix was ' arreated in Greenville on the charge for which he may pay his life.

Nix, the man arrested last Sunday for .Incest and murder is responsible. I ".Seated upon a broken down chair on the lawn facing 'the poor house, pausing now and then' to gaze wistful ly acror.s the hills, the . aged man, broken In health and ? piriis, laid bare his past to Sheriff Rector and a news paper reporter. Th? sheriff had gone Ito the poor house to secure informa tion from Nunnally regarding the past "of Nix. According to. Kunnallyj a *t sealed sentence now awaits Nix In An eJ . derson county, where he was trf.d and convicted in his absence. Nix. It is ig ' said, fled from this . scetioa of the (e country to Alabama, later going to Texas and finally to Oklahoma, where he lived for twenty years, by more. -, ? Twenty Years Ago* } "'It was about 23 years ago when trouble first arose between Nix and In ' me,' the old man said. -'We lived In stf the same neighborhood about seven a mHes from Orcor ville, and were av a. that time living but a few hundred yards apart.
