Charged with Two Capital Offenses. . . Felix Wright of Wake Forest Faces Serious Charges in Two Counties

Raleigh, June 23—Felix Wright, a white man of Wake Forest, 26 years, faces capital charges in two North Carolina counties.

Wright, who has been in Wake county jail since June 11, was carried Thursday to Middlesex and given a preliminary hearing on a charge of attacking a woman on March 19. He was bound over to the Nash county court without privilege of bond but he will not be surrendered by the Wake authorities, according to So0licitor W.F. Evans, who expects to ask the Wake county grand jury next Monday to return an indictment for burglary in the first degree and an attempt to attack the wife of a mill operative at Wake Forest on March 23, four days after the alleged offense near Middlesex.
