Colored LYnchers at Work.

Last Monday night about ten o'clock, on
the plantation of Mr.. James E. Davis, a
party of color,d men, disguised in female
apparel, went to the house of Joe Evans,
colored, who does not bear the reputation
of o saint, and called him out to see a sick
horse. Most of the crowd were secreted
under Joe's house, and when he came out
they came out from their place Of hiding,
caught hold of Evans and carried him to-
wards the swamp, distance OF about one
hundred yards.
When they reached the swamp Joe beg
ged and entreated the party to let him 60
back to his house. but the only reply made
was q blow with hatchet on his head
which had stunning effect. As soon as
Evans came too he saw coffin shaped box
near him, and be again begged for his life.
The crowd fell on him, beat him, and strip.
ped him of his clothes. Evans made des.
perate struggle to get away, and finally sue
ceeded, but being afraid to return to his
own house he went toI Mr.. J. S. Ridgeway's,
who allowed him to stay in his cotton
house.
The following notice was found the fol-
lowing morning on a pine tree near the
spot where the affair occurred:

Lynch law will not do, and the
action of the colored lynchers in this
county last Monday night should be
condemned in the strongest terms.
If Joe Evans was doing anything un-
lawful, then those offended should
have taken proper legal steps to have
him punished, but to take
the law in their own hands, to
aycnge their own cause, especially IN
this case, where it seems Evans was
guilty of esmeanness" only, is very
reprehensible. Every effort should
be made to ferret out the perpetra-
tors of this outrage, and the guilty
parties should every one be sent to
the penitentiary.
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1891-11-11

The above is written from statement
made by Evans yesterday when he
came to the court house to get warran,

them before the trial justice. The accused

It meant that his TINES had been paid

know if he wished the paper sent for

We publish a paper for the money
that is in it, and we believe that the
better paper we publish the more
money we will get out of it. We do
not consider it so great an honor to

OUT
Our rule is to require a man to
pay for his paper in advance, ard
when the time is out to stop it, unless
the subscription is renewed.
Occasionally we have subscriber
who gets vexed because he thinks
our not wanting to send him the pa
per before he pays for it is a redec-
ton on his integrity. This last class
will simply have to get over this evil
thought, for it matters not how good
the man may be, or how much it hurts
our pocket to stop his paper, yet when
his time runs out, the paper will stop.
We mean no harm by it, but we have
found by actual experiment, that it
pays to conduct our business on this
principle, is more satisfactory to our
subscribers and ourselves, and there
fore our rule shall continue to be *No
pay, no paper"
