Best Men Lynched Him.

A dispatch from Kinstree, S. c., says
Judge Lynch held court in that county
Sunday night in the vicinity of Moores
Cross Roads. about four miles from
Lake City, near the Clarendon line.
George McFadden was arranged be-
fore Judge Lynch and jury OF his
countrymcn charged with having COM
mitted criminal assault upon Miss
Sally Dubose, the sixteen-year-old
daughter of Mr.. S. G.. Dubose, highly
respectable farmer of that section.
George McFadden was brought be-
fore the young lady. She identified
aim and he confessed his guilt. He
VAS condemned, sentenced and allow
ed reasonable time to prepare to
meet his God. There was no blood
hirsty mob crying out for vengeance.
The crowd was composed Of the best
men of the community.
He seemed perfectly calm and COM
posed. The crowd was orderly TO the
asst. After being prayed for he was asked
ne had any request to make, and he
said "No." 1t was then put TO vote
how he should be killed, and it Was
greed TO hang him.
During all this time he never moved
/ muscle, but seemed utterly in
different to what. was going on.
When the rope was placed around his
neck and he was told to stand UP in
road cart, he readily did so,
and said he was prepared TO die and
meet his God. He said he was ready
10 70, and had no fears nor any re-
quests to make. His legs and arms
were pinioned, and a large red hand
kerchieftied over his eyes for death
cap. He asked as dying request, that
he be allowed to see the end, and it
was granted, and the handkerchief was
removed. The road cart was removed,
and with one heavy thud, all that was
mortal of George McFadden was dang
ling in the air. He gave one shudder
and did not struggle again, but seemed
to die quickly and peaceably.
No idle demonstration or violence
was visible or offered. The crowd were
perfectly quiet and orderly throughout.
They seemed not to know what else to
do than what they did, and this being
accomplished they quietly dispersed
and went about their various avocations
as if nothing had happened, leaving the
body of George McFadden dangling
from limb by the roadside with the
following inscription pinned to him:
ave do not know any better than to
protect our wives and daughters"
There were probably 200 white men
present at the lynching, and three col
ored men. The coroner cut down the
body yesterday and impaneled jury
of inquest, which rendered a verdict
that The deceased, George McFadden,
came to his death from hanging by the
neck until dead at the hands of persons
to the jury unknown.
