Gambltna Caught.
There is in Galfney as in most
other towns an idle gang of of white
and negro boys, who spend their time
in gambling and general misconduct.
This crowu in Gatlney is a source of
great annoyance to peop'e in the
suburbs of the city. Lately to avoid
the city authorities they have mad»
their resorts just outside the city
limits. T‘ is fact cam^ to the knowl
edge of Sheriff Thomas, and he and
the city police have been laying for
them.
Wednesday it was ascertained that
the sport was going on in the Scruggs
pasrure, and the Sheriff and Chief
Camp and Office Hallman, Barnet
Lipscomb and Sam Morgan, made a
drive for this annoying and useless
gang. The result of which was, three
young white men and two younc
negro .nen were caught and carried
be»ore Magistrate Phillips who bound
them over to court in the sum of two
hundred dollars each. In default of
the bonds all five were committed to
jail to await trial
One young white fellow, by Nancy
Hanks strides, made his escape.
A Serious Accident.
Wednesday afternoon while at work
on the large building being erected
for the manufacture of cotton mill
supplies, to escape some falling tim
bers Mr. Wm. Scoit Byars, one of
our good citizens and hard working
carpenters, was compelled to jump
from a gangway which was used to
convey material to the top of the
building from which he received seri
ous injuries.
Dr J. N Nesbitt wus called and
was soon with the suffering man aod
found the injuries principally in the
feet and lower limbs, and while they
are severe and painful Dr Nesbitt
hopes they will not be permanent.
The doctor left Mr Byars about mid
night Wednesday night, at which
time he was comparatively comfor
table.
The sympathy for Mr Byars in the
city is general and his many friends
sincerely hope that he may have a
speedy recovery.
