Death.

RALEIGH, \. c., Nay 27.-John
Starring, living near SELMA IL John
ston county, was surrounded by u
party Of masked men While on the
way home last Saturday night, tied
to tree and shot to death. Twenty
bullets were put into his body. He
had made some threats against a
peaceable citizen and was returning
home from a magistrates trial.
His wife WAS in the wagon with
him. The mob tmewa rope over his
head, dragged him out and carried
him far enough in the woods to
prevent her from being an eyewitness
70 his fate.
Some time ago an old lady named
Cenia Brown and her grandson were
foully murdered in Johnston county.
Mrs. Brown was Starling's mother
IN law, and there was well founded
suspicion that Startling murdered
her that lie might get possession Of
her property through his wife. He
was tried OF tie charge OF murder,
but lie had 50 terrorized the comma
nifty it was Impossible to get any one
to testify against him, and he was ac-
quilted.
Later the houses of two persons
who made themselves conspicuous in
The t.ial against him where burned.
The people OF this community
thought this Starlinss work OF Ycn-
geance. hence the lynchiGg.
