this Ku-Klux business is to the negroes.
Finding that the accounts all corrobora-

the whipping, and as to the disguises and
appearance of the outlaws, dismissed the
crowd at about 10 o'clock, without waiting
to hear more, and returned to my hotel.
Soon after man called at my room,

South Carolina, and had taken an active

stroyed. The negroes had already been
thoroughly frightened, and would be kept
so until the next election. Laws and
courts Of justice afforded no remedy,
for, with the fear of murder before them,

Ku-klux, and no juries would indict or
convict. His remedy was retaliation
