HE WILL NOT RE LYNCHED.
John Smith Taken to Lynchburg for Safe
Keeping.

Keeping.
John Smith, the murderer of Peter
Alitf, is safe for the present. II any
citizens seriously contemplated taking
the law into their own hands, and the
prisoners life as Il punishment for the
terrible crime he committed last Thurs
day, they will be disappointed.
On Saturday afternoon Sergeat Trayn-
ham informed reporter of THE TIMES
that he had determined to remove
Smith from Roanoke for safety and
economy, and would apply to Judge
Blair, of the circuit court, Monday
for authority to do so. Deputy Sergeant
Wright was sent to Salem, where he
obtained the order and returned Just be-
fore the l2:45 eastboundEtrain was due.
Smith was quietly taken from his cell,
rushed along Commerce street to tho
Norfolk and Western railroad and down
the track to the Union passenger depot
and on board a car before more than a
half dozen people knew his removal was
intended. Once in the car he was hand
cuffed and informed that he would be
taken TO Lynchburg for safe keeping
lie was glad to get away from Roam
oke, and the sergeant was equally glad
to get rid of him.
The Roanoke Light Infantry spent
Sunday night in their armory, ready to
respond to the call of the sergeant, if a
mob assaulted the Jail for the purpose
of lynching Smith. Sergeant Trayn-
ham thinks the reports about the anger
and intention of the people were greatly
exaggerated and that there was no real
danger of an assault upon the Jail.
However, it was deemed best to be pre-
pared for trouble. The Roanoke Light
Infantry are entitled to SlO2. 40 for their
services Saturday and Sunday nights.
BESIDES, there are the special police
Lien and the guards at Jail to be paid.
Smith will be brought back at the
September term of the Hustings Court.
