Middle Ga. Argus – Week of August 11, 1883
Miss Emma Bullard, the young lady of Dooly, who killed her offspring to hide 
her shame, has escaped.  The Vindicator says: On Thursday night the guard in 
charge reported that a rescue was attempted, and that some unknown persons were 
passing about the yard during the night.  The guard fired at one of the party 
three times; the party ran and as he did so, returned the fire.  The skirmish 
was soon over, and all was then quiet.  Other suspicious movements about the 
premises led the guard to believe that a move was on foot to get the prisoner 
out of reach.  Miss Emma Bullard made her escape while the guard was eating 
supper.  She went in a hack.  Some of the parties are identified.  The guard 
pursued in the direction of Hawkinsville.
