Sold a Stolen Horse?
A report sent out from Fort
j Mill says that E. P. H. Nivens
; has been bound over to a prej
liminary before Magistrate Beck- ,
ham at Rock Hill, under $300
bond, on the charge of knowing- '
ly disposing of stolen property. \
It seems that a valuable horse
was stolen from Mr. J. H. Wil- \
son in Columbia about ten days
ago, and in a few days Nivens ]
bought the horse from a strange ''
white man.
It is alleged thatNivens, being ;1
i warned by friends that the horse !.
had been stolen and that officers
were searching for it, took the
horse across the Catawba at (
night and disposed of it. At any !
rate, when the officers reached ;
Nivens' store, in the upper part I
of the township, he refused to j1
tell where the horse was or to ;'
give any information about it, |:
although it is said the owner j J
offered to give him back the 1:
cost of the horse. *
The officers crossed the river
and succeeded in finding the
horse about 10 miles from j
Nivens' store. They secured
the horse and, returning to
town, had Nivens arrested on
! the above charge.
Horse Thieves Got Five Years.
In the Mecklenburg superior
court the past week, the two
J young white men who some
weeks ago stole the horse and
1 buggy of Mr. H. T. Dotger from
i a church yard in Charlotte, and ,
who drove the team to Fort Mill
I and left it, were each convicted j
and sentenced to five years on i
I the Mecklenburg roads.

escape of the men, Riggs and
Logue, is still fresh in the minds
of the reading public. After
having driven the horse to this
place the animal was left on
Cleborn street and during the
night wandered to Sugar creek
where it was found the following
day by some negroes. Riggs
and Logue boarded a southboard
train here and went to Columbia
where they were captured and
escaped from jail to be recaptured
in Newberry. They were
brought back to Charlotte and
held for trial.
Messrs. W. L. Ferguson and
Tom Lytle, two young men of
| this place, identified Riggs and
liOgue at the trial as the men
1 who drove Mr. Dotger's horse
into Fort Mill the day it disappeared
from the churchyard in

Elliott, of Fort Mill, died Thursday,
after an illness of several
months. While alighting from
his buggy several months ago
Mr. Elliott sustained painful injuries,
and since that occurrence
has been confined to his bed
practically all the time, partial
paralysis having seized him
shortly after the accident. For
the past two weeks, those who
ministered to his needs realized
that the end of the struggle was
near, and Wednesday he suffered
ei lapse of consciousness from
which there came no recovery.
Mr. Elliott was a son of the
late Samuel Harvey and Mary
Withers Elliott and was born (34

Dr. Lucius L. Ardrey Dead.
A telegram received here
Thursday by Mrs. J. L. Spratt
announced the death on Wednesiay
afternoon of her brother,
Dr. Luciuc L. Ardrey. Dr. Arirey
died in Bandera, Texas,
where he had been living for a
number of years. He had been
a. sufferer for many months from
tuberculosis and his death was
not unexpected.
Dr. Ardrey was a son of the
late Capt. W. E. Ardrey, of
Providence township, and was
)f large and prominent connections
in Mecklenburg county.
He left there several years ago
for Texas, where he hoped his
health would be benefitted. His
condition variated under the
itmosphere of that climate, at
times improving, but never to
such an extent to admit a hope
:>f permanent relief. He is survived
by a wife.
The funeral of Dr. Ardrey took
place at Harrison church Monday
morning.
