FEAST OF HUMAN FLESH.
The Body of Child Sold for Meat by An
fnhuman Mother.

WASHINGTON, GA, May 25.-There are
terrible rumorS afioat in some sections of
this county of Il horrible crime committed
by negro woman, 4 crime which has
never been investigated. The details of this
crime are revolving, and in view OF the fact
that no official investigation has been made
the general truthfulnesS OF the story NAV
be doubted, although it is common talk
among the negroes.
The story is that negro woman. living
near Deli, murdered u small child and
cooked ii like meat. She then gave what
she called "a hot supper" sold the meat of
the child, and called it tender veal. She re-
ceived So for the sale of the meat The
negroes asked what sort of meat it was,
and little negro child said it was her little
sister that mamma had killed One negro
carried one of the bones of the child to q
doctor, and he said it was the bone of
human. The report says that the negroes
ate every morsel of the child in the belief
that they were eating veal. and after supper
there was dance, while whisky flowed
freely.
The woman who had thus killed and
cooked the child refused TO eat any of it.
This strange abstinence was remarked by
her guests, who became suspicious, and all
sorts OF reports were in circulation.
The strange part of the story is that while
the negroes are talking loudly of the matter
in some sections, they have not given the
name of the woman accused of the awful
crime The talk, however, will lead to an
investigation which will clear up the mys-
terry. One negro said he would be willing
TO tie rope around the wOman's neck, put
the rope over limb of q tree. pull her Just
off the ground and carry lightwood knots
to burn her to death.
