The De Witt Observer chronicles a
case of heathenish barbarity, at which
fiend might well blush, in the finding
of the body of Hyner, a notorious horse
October last was taken out of Jail at De
Witt by band Of regulators" and dis
posed ofin some manner then unknown
to all not concerned in his lynching. On
the evening of the 25th inst, the body
was found In the bed of Silver Creek, q
small stream, in an unfrequented tract
of timber, miles north Of De Witt, by a
little girl who was fishing. Next day,
Sheriff, Coroner, and the Coroner's Jury
and others went to the spot, found the
body fast in the stream, with head and
shoulders just out ofthe water, and the
rest is thus told by the Observer.
stantly recognized by Sheriff Hogle,
by clothing and rings, MS the body of
Hyner. He had evidently been hanged
las DR.. 10y says and afterwards thrown
into the creek--a rope being tied around
his hands and body and a stone weigh
ing some IS pounds attached to sink the
body. The corpse had doubtless been
deposited there the night Hyner was ia
ken out of the jail-over six months ago
and was, Of course SO decomposed as
to render recognition impossible, only
by the clothing and jewelry he wore.
The head, which was out of the water,
presented nothing but the naked skull,
while some portions of the body appear
ed sound and others were but putrid
masses. Under the circumstances the
body could not be removed SO it was
buried on the bank few feet from the
spot where it was found, and there 1t re-
mains monument to show how brutal
human beings can, be when claiming to
be civilized. 1.-THE "Higher Law" men
had hanged the old villain and buried
him decently, we would have no fault
to find but to hang him till dead, and
then throw his body into a stream of
water looks altogether too heathenish.
It has been said that this gang is made
up Of respectable and intelligent men OF
our county but if you will show US one
of their number that sanctions such base
conduct we will show in the same indi-
vidual man that hanging would do no
injustice.
