LINCOLN, March 26.-That large portion of
the people of Lincoln and Logan county who
still believe that Orrin A Carpenter is the muir
derer of Fora Burns, despite hisacquittal by the
Petersburg jury, manifested their feelings this
afternoon in a mass meeting, in compliance with
the request of a circular scattered profusely
about the town. The meeting was held in the
courthouse yard, and l 200 to 1,5OO people were
present, largely substantial farmers George c.
McKendree of Elkhart, a prominent merchant,
presided Speeches were made by Rev. j. A.
Chase, pastor of the Presbyterian Church, Lin
coin; Colonel R. M. Hough, James T. Habit,
Rev. Ritter, pastor of the German
church; Supervisor H. L. Pierce, Rev.
J. V. Beekman, and others, all denunciatory of
Carpenter all expressing conviction of his guilt,
and demanding reforms in the criminal code of
Illinois.
The committee on resolutions, consisting of
Dr. Miller Hon. John D. Gillett, William n.
Dustin, r. B. Lucas August Berger. Clark Gal
lagher, and William Fl. Daniels, presented a
series of resolutions of strong and unmistakable
character elnbodying the sentiments expressed
by the speakers. One Of the resolutions requests
Carpenter very firmly to leave Logan county at
once and forever. This resolution is to be pre-
sented to Carpenter at his house and his place of
business. The meeting was orderly and peace
full, but seemed unanimous in sentiment, the
speeches and resolutions being warmly ap-
plauded. Notwithstanding all this, there is a
large proportion of the people of Logan county
who believe Carpenter innocent of the murder,
and who believe that it is high time to cease per
scouting himself and his most estimable family.
There will be, probably, aspeedy and marked re
