East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia
railroad, thirty miles above here, the
dead body Of Scipio Atchison (cOlored)

enraged at the men for pursuing his son,
and several times threatened to kill
them. On Friday last he went to the
houses of some white people in the
woods, where the men were getting
saw-logs, and said - This is your day,
but tomorrow is mine-I will get your
scalp" lie also advised the white
families to leave there at once. These
threats are believed to have caused his
death at the hands Of some of the white
men of the neighborhood. The son is
desperate man, and if caught he will
be lynched.
