  Up to the time previous of closing the forms to go to press, the negro who attempted to take the life of Larent Lacassagne, as chronicled in these columns last week ahead of all other papers, is still at large.  Citizens have been on the watch and search during the week and entertain hopes of his capture. If they succeed he will certainly meet his just and speedy punishment. His victim is on the fair road of recovery, under the care of Dr. F. Loeber and Dr. W. B. Rohmer.  His condition was very critical, but by good attention and some seemingly hidden power his recovery is now certain.  The lad relates that after he was struck his assailant took him by the feet and struck his head over the rail road irons.  (SCE 09/16/1893) see: storms disk (SCE 10/7/1893)
