Jackson Argus – Butts County October 1, 1897
“Bear”, a one armed and one eyed Negro living in one of J. H. Land’s houses, 
raised an alarm Sunday night and some Negroes hearing his cries, ran to the 
rescue and frightened off two other Negroes, who were about to kill the old 
man, for the sake of two or three dollars he had on his person.  The robbers 
succeeded in cutting  “Bear” a few fearful slashes on the back of the neck, and 
while the wounds are not considered serious, they are very painful.
