IT is difficult to tell how many hard
knocks Tennessee criminal can stand.
The attempt Of a mob TO hang LEE SELLERS
or give him a pass to the other world in any
way possible, is very remarkable episode

away BY having some hundreds o. shots fred
after him. But the criminal was not going
to give up for such trifies IS these, and was
only overcome by being sOundly pumusled
and thrown into the river. 1t is hard tell.
