In the meantime the negroes became very indig-

Threats of Wholesale murder and houseburning
were made, and strong police force was organ
lied for the protection of life and property.
The negroes turned out armed with rifles, and
stationed themselves along the outskirts of the
town.
Everything appeared quiet until about two
