By some mysteri- ous providence, he was not even bruised. Later on, when Lawrence was 17 years old, like most of the young fel- lows at that age, he fell in love with the handsome little daughter of a With the assistance of a friend he succeeded in procuring a marriage license, and one evening Al- neighbor. he eloped with his sweetheart. ; though he enjoined the clerk not to give it away, the particulars appear-| ed in the Courier Journal the follow- ing morning. In this way the father of the girl learned of the marriage, and he became so angry that he loaded his shot-gun and started on a hunt for his new son in-law, with the avowed determination of annihi- lating him. They met shortly after- ward, and the old manemptied both barrels of his gun at the boy.

No living person save himself knew his deed, but the ghost of Carter would not allow him to forget it Night and day, wherever he went there went, too, the unearthly vision accusing him as did the victims of King Richard on the tented field. Twice King sought death by his own hand, and twice he was prevented in his designs. Then he stole a horse to fly from the avenging wrath and was arrest- ed.
