A correspondent at Walhalla, writing about the arrest of S. L. Richardson in Ohio, says: Richardson has signified his willingness to be brought back withoutrequisition papers, but the sheriff will nevertheless go armed with a requisition, as he fears Richardson might change his mind as easily as he changed his name before reaching the Buckeye state. It i9 understood that there will be several warrants awaiting him on his arrival. It will be remembered that Richardson was recently released from the Lexington jail without trial on numerous charges of forgery against him, his father and brother having arranged for his release by paying out various sumsaggregatsngin the neighborhood of $15,000. Richardson was schduled to leave South Carolina, go west and begin over again in the hoDest avocation of farming, his oldets girls to be left in the custody of his father, who furnished him, it is said, with funds to start life in Oklahoma or Texas. Richardson, however, slipped into his home in West Union, got the two girl9 and made his way to Ohio. Although traveling under an assumed name, he was easily caught, as it was known that he was traveling with his two children, one of whom is a cripple. It is possible that Richardson may remain in Ohio until after court here next week as the sheriff intends going for him in person, and * ' ? - J jj i.1.^ nis ume may De required aunng me session of court, the sheriff being an important witness in the Palmer murder case.
