ANOTHER LYNCHING CASE IN VIRGINIA-Mis-
CSgendti07l the CduSe.-A Richmond dispatch to
the New York Herald gives the particulars of a
case OF lynchfng for miscegenation In Franklin
county, Va. From this dispatch it seems that
a colored man OF bad character named Richard
Woods had deserted his wife and children and
was living with white woman named Nancy
Williams, the mother Of two illegitimate Chill
dren. Last Monday night party Of men went
to Nancy Williams house, and after much
trouble effected an entrance. After searching
Tor some time Woods was found under the floor
CT the cabin. where he had concealed himself.
Woods and the woman were then bound to-
gether and driven a considerable distance, the
lynchers following with drawn pistols When
prisoners were halted and the negro Woods
was ordered to strip He partially undressed
himself, and requested one of the mob to un-
button his shirt as he could not reach the but
ton behind him, owing to one Of his hands be-
ing tied to the woman. This request was re-
garded by the man to whom it was addressed as
an insult, for he instantly knocked the negro
down, and he was set upon by several of the
gang and severely beaten. The unfortunate
tuTe made break from his custodians and ran,
but fell from exhaustion and terror before he
had gone very far. He was closely pursued by
the mob, who, as soon as they came up, shot
him several times and killed him. Returning
to the woman she was administered Il severe
whipping, after which she was ordered to go
home-admonished that If she did not leave
the county in three days she would be hanged.
On the following day an inquest was held On
the body of Woods, at which the above facts
We're substantially related, the witnesses being
Nancy Williams and her children, and Eliza
Woods, the wife, and her children OF the mur-
dered man.
