HORRIBLE BRUTALITY.
A Mother stamps the Life Out OF Her Four
Yesr-Old Child.
Austin Statesman.

Austin Statesman.
The vicinity Of Oatmanville seems
to be chosen spot for. brutal murders.
Sunday Mrs. Winnie Lucas went to
neighbours, who lives on the farm OF
squire Pace, and stated TO this negro's
family that her little four year-old girl
had been bitten by y
tarantula, and she was fear.
full she would not live. Parties went
to STE the child and among them DIR.
Stovall, and to their horror they found
the little girl dead-not from spider
bite, but dead from terrible bruises.
There were four ofthese upon the head
any of which would have been certain
death; another on the breast that would
have been fatal in and of itself.
and another still upon the back just as
murderous. In fact, the dead child
was found to be literally pounded into
a Jelly. When the parties made this
discovery they Intercepted the moth
er as to who had been at the place, and
she promptly answered that no
one had been there but herself.
1t became evident that she
was the person who had beaten the
little thing in this barbarous manner.
Justice Pace accordingly called an in
quest, and the facts in regard to the
dark deed were Investigated. The ev-
idcnce fixed the murder upon the
woman, but most horrible of all
was the evidence of little sister of
the murdered child, who. when cues
toned apart from her mother, stated
that she saw her mother kill the girl.
She was terribly frightened at first,
and stated that her mother had told
her she would serve her in the same
way If she told what she had done To
her sister The child was assured
that her mother would not be allowed
to serve her in that way, and when
this had been imprt sse upon her
mind she freely and candidly--in the
simple story of child--rectted the
inhuman acts of her mother. She
stated that her mother got angry at
her sister over some trivial matter, and
i'll rage, took her into the yard near
u tree aud threw her with great vio-
lence against it several times; then
she took her to the house and laid her
on the floor, and, after doing that, she
jumped upon her with her feet and
actually stamped the poor, mangled
body into the horrible condition in
which IL was found. Then, after She
had done that, she said to the
corpse; There, you little ID,
Pm rid of you. any way or words to
that effect. She then showed the
mangled corpse of the child to her
other children and told them to look
at it, saying in the same connection,
'the first one who tells what / have
done will be served in the same way, -
and instructed them to say the dead
girl had been bitten by spider and
that that was the cause OF her
death. Mrs Lucus was at once ar
rested and is now in the county Jail to
answer for this terrible crime She is
a negress and has lived some time in
that neighborhood. IL is seldom that
a newspaper is called upon to chronicle
Il crime so revolving in its horrid de-
tails a. this one is; and if the woman in
found to be guilty she should be
hanged. Even that is too good for
her.
