Joe Summey, living on Hickory
Nut Gap road 16 miles from Ashe-
vile just within the Henderson
county line. came near being
lynched on Friday last.
On Friday of last week, while
Lawson Freeman, highly re-
spected citizen, living on the
Hickory Nut Gap road, was attend
ing the burial services Of his wife
who had died on Thursday, some
person broke open and entered his
house and took from a chest which
had also been forced open 1928
in gold and silver. Suspicion was
fastened on Joe Summey, young
man Of the neig ghborhood, who had
borne a bad reputation aud
he was tracked from the
house by Mr.. Freeman and
his two sons to Summey's house,
about a mile and a half from Mr..
Freeman's.
On capturing Summey and charg-
ing him with the theft he stoutly de-
MED it. This was not satisEacto ory
to the Freemans, so they pro-
cured a rope and took Sum
mey to tree near by and
ne was told that he must either con-
fess or hang. He still persisted in
his innocence, whereupon the rope
was thrown over a limb Of a tree
and Summey dangled between
heaven and earth. He was shortly
let down to give him a chance tt
confess, but he would say nothing
He was again yanked up and al
lowed to swing for a short time ane
then let down for the second time
He still refused to con
fess, so he was swun;
up to the third time and allowed tt
remain until he threw up his hand
and he was then lowered to tn
ground.
When he had regained his speec1
he took the men to where he ha
hidden the money. Twelve dollar
was found in potato patch, an
ninety dollars was found in th
possession of his brother Thomas.
All the money was recovere
| back with the exception Of ten do
lars. The two Summeys had
hearing and Joe was sent to tn

And again victory is ours.
But it was slugging sluggers that
saved the day.
A great crowd was present and
as the Washingtons had new players
in the field it was thought that she
would play ball. And the crowd
was not mistaken.
Quarles and Keefer formed the
battery for Winston and Fitzmor-
ris and johnson for Washington.
Fitzmorris, however, was knocked
out of the box and Leach, the As
sociation pitcher who arrived from
Washington on the noon train; took
his place.
In the first inning Winston
started out with goose egg and on
going to the field allowed the Wash
ingtons to score four times in the
following ORDERLY. Wright crossed
the plate on a homer knock by
Green. Wells caught his eye ON
the ball and also pounded it over
the front fence. III. Wright was
also successful for score. The
first inning closed with the score
against Winston 4 to G and inter-
est was at fever heat.
In the second light began to
dawn for the blue boys by Bennett
and Keefer both scoring.
In the third both teams were shut
out, but the fourth proved a pud-
ding for Winston by Jones scoring.
Bennett, Quarles and McGann Sc
cured bases each, and Lyston dis
tinguished himself by lifting the
ball over the front fence, thereby
scoring four runs. Farrell, Sands
and Keely also crossed the plate in
this inning.
The home team were goose egged
the remainder OF the game.
In the sixth Leach and FitzmOr.
ris scored by the latter's knock.
ing home run.
In the seventh their two and last
, runs were made by Green ant
| Wells, the latter knocking the bal
over the front fence.
