The crime is said to have )een committed on Saturday, the 20lh ?f July, b.it there appears to have >een so little interest taken in the mat er by those in the neighborhood of he alleged crime that the general mblic knew nothing of it till Wednes lay last. , Reports as to the particulars >f the affair are conflicting. One re tort iB to the effect that the girl is on y 12 years old, idiotic and was taken rom beside her little Bister on the oad and carried by force a distance of me hundred yards into the woods, the ittle Bister giving the alarm and pre -cnling the crime. Another report is bat the girl is about 18 yearn old, ears an unsavory reputation and >haw's arrest and incarceration is ac uated by a desire to persecute and xlort money. It is quite difficult to nderstand why bo little interest has een taken in the affair by citizens of be Township in which the crime is aid to have been committed. If the cotisation be well founded, it is a ter ible blot upon the white citizenship of inderson County. In Memoriam. "On Wednesday morning, July 30, the eath angel entered the home of Mr. nd Mrs. R.
