minister, Republican, testified to the existence or
three organizations Of Red Shirts in Williamsburg

ference with a Republican meeting at White Oak

of the conduct of the election at Kings Tree stating
that the Democrats refused United States SUPER
visors admission to the polls, and in the evening
captured the ballot box and stuffed it. He also
related personal experiences, saying the Red Shirts
were hunting him and had dug grave for him. He
described his arrest the charge of perjury by the
Democrats, and gave detailed account of his being
beaten and threatened. The cross examination how
ever elected the fact that these latter were in con-
sequence OF personal difficulties.
John M. Freeman, coored, Republican supervisor
at Palmetto engine house, testified that the arrest of
Democrat voter for repeating by his order resulted
in his being knocked down and kicked, but the in

Up to that time 915 votes were polled and about two
hours later when the poll closed the total vote

ostracism of colored Democrats by Republicans and
though the ostracism was just the other way.
