Regulating Morals In South Carolina,

In Fairfield County, s. c., band of white
regulators has been organized with the ayowed
purpose of reforming the morals of the people,
and abOliShing mscegenaton. Last July the
regulators, composed of the best young men of
the County, visited q farm near Rdgeway,
where lived a white family named Boyles, one
of the daughters living openly with negro
man. Two others kept disreputablc house
for negroes. The regulators whipped Boyles,
his wife, and two daughters, and warned them
to leave the County in 10 days. Boyles begged
to be allowed to harvest his crop, and on ac-
count of his poverty he was given leave to do
SO; but, in the meantime, the original order
being disobeyed, the regulators gave the family
another whipping. Next the regulators visited
parties between Ridgeway and Winnsboro, and
whipped them badly. Lloyd Davis who has
negro mistress, was next visited. He got away.
His household furniture was badly broken up
and his colored family warned to quit. Tom
Davis. the richest merchant in Ridgcway, re-
ported worth SIS, ,00O was given 10 days notice
to quit, because he had u negro mistress and
family. He left his business in the hands of
his clerks, aud put out for Mississippi. Ross
Williams, living on the ether side of Ridgeway
with negro woman, was visited and showed
fight, but was severely whipped, as was his
mistress and ordered 10 leave. About 10 fam-
lies, all mixed have felt the power Of the regu-
lators so far The excuse the regulators give
is that the grand jury don't take cognizance of
those being in open adultery, because it is hard
to prove the existence of such fact. The peo-
pie could not be reached by law, and SO it was
determined to reach them outside OF the law.
The chief offenders, whether warned CIR not,
are dssolving their establishments and leav-
ing, and fear of exposure and punishment pre-
walls. The regulators disguise themselves
while visiting, by covering their faces with
cloths. No weapons but hickory switches have
been used.
