An Incident of Long Ago.
A story concerning an inci-
dent thai occurred in Paris
thirty years ago was related to
an advocate man by a well
known and thoroughly reliable
citizen who spent the greater
part of his life in this city.
What makes the story of pecu-
liar interest is the fact that is
was never told before for the
reason that the lady concerned
was bitterly opposed to the no-
torety it would have her, and
even at this late date names
are withheld. \ The story as
told the Advocate is as follows:
One night about thirty years
ago a lady was sitting in htjr
room at home in this city.
Her husband was very ill, suf-
fering from an attack of pneu-
monia and she was sitting up
to minister to his needs. Her
children were asleep in another
room and only a dim light was
burning in the room where she
was keeping vigil at a late
hour. The door was noiseless-
ly opened and admitted a big
ugly negro. It was just after
war times when renegade ne-
groes were committing many
atrocious acts, and the lady
was almost frightened to death.
She was afraid to scream be-
cause of the dangerous illness
of her husband; he must not
be disturbed; so she linally
mustered up*courage to ask
the intruder his business. He
made no reply,, but continued
to approach her and just as he
was at the point of reaching
out his- hand to seizM her by
the throat the desperate wom-
an picked up a silver mounted
(farving knife which was lying
on the table by which she was
sitting, and, with a strength
born ol desperation and prasesi
need j-lie drove the glil'eiing
blade up t<> tie hilt in the
body of ilie black brute.
T'-.e negro exclaimed, "My
({oil, you have killed me,'' and
staggered out of I lie door and
disappeared in the darkness,
leaving a trail of blood to tell
of'the tragedy.
The lady was highly sensi-
tive, and fearing the story
would become public, took
into her''confidence only the
family physician, who, by the
way still resides in Paris, and
the wif« of the gentleman was
the Advocate's relator.
Whether or not the negro
received a mortal wound was
never determined, as he nor the
carving knife were never seen
or heard of after that night.
The heroine with her family
had only been living in Paris
about one year when the inci-
dent occurred, but they contin-
ued their abode there for many
years and were highly respect-
ed and useful citiz-us—Paris
Advocate.
