Bru >k, who visited inton on Wednesday, we tearm that on last Sunday, James Hayes, ot West Point township, attempted a crime, which none except those pos- sessed with demons of the blackest | and deepest dye, would be guilty of As Mr. Al. Walley was geing home | from Vinton, he hadto pass through | some timber, and when about half through, he heard the cries of « wo- | man a short distance from the road. He stopped and listened, and again heard the cry. Help! Murder! | Help! He immediately put whip; to his horse and was soon at her side. | He found Hayes attempting to out- | rage the person of Miss . Haye upon seeing he was discovered in the | hellish act he was about to accom- | plish, mounted his horse and disap- peared in the woods. Mr. Walley said the young lady had had a des- | perate struggle with Hayes, which had lasted about fifteen or twenty minutes, and ws completely exhaust- } ed, and had almost concluded that unless someone heard her cries, she would be ruined. Fortunately for the girl Mr. Walley heard her, and saved her from his hands. -We have know young Hayes sey- eral years, and, when a mere boy, he was Iiked by all who knew him. As he grew older, and his parents had less control over him, he became wild, reckless, and took to drink and associated with only bad women and men. His parents have the sympa- thy ot all. Dr. Hayes is well known in this county, being one of the first settlers after the war, and has made many friends. Young Hayes lett tor parts unknown and at present writing he Personal. —Prot.
