corunna Citizens Denounce the Lynching

The citizens of Corunna held a meet
ing Tuesday evening and in the follow
ing emphatic language denounced the
iynching Of Sullivan and demanded
state investigation.
Whereas. The reasonable barbarism
OF lynching has been perpertrated IL our
lair city and in consequence of which we,
as a city, are held in derision and as
black stain and disgrace to Michigan by
the order-loving and law-abiding citizens
| OF the state, and
Whereas, Though the crime was per-
petrated by individuals outside of the
city, yet the reproach attaches TO the To-
callty rather than to the perpetrators,
| and in consequence of this crime Corun-
ma is being held up before the people of
the world, by the press, pulpit and indi-
vldual declaration in contempt and scorn,
and
Whereas, Our county and city officers
are being charged wi h cowardice and
inefiiciency in their management of the
affair.
Whereas, We, the citizens of Corunna,
are law-abiding people desiring the up
holding of law and order utterly repudat-
ing the right of mobs to administer the
justice of the county of Shiawassee.
Whereas, Strong efforts have been
made to advance the interests of our city
and persuade people to locate here.
Whereas, The lynching of the murder
er Sullivan, has placed us in false light
before the world, caused cloud to rest
upon us, and exercises deterrent effect
on its interests of our city, therefore be it
Resolved, First, that we, the citizens
of Corunna, while we believe Sullivan
had forfeited his life and ought to die,
yet we do heartily despite the lynching
of the murderer, Sullivan second, that
we are law-abiding people and will
stand by the constitution third, that we
desire a thorough investigation of the
affair to be made and the guilty parties
be brought to justice; fourth, that in or
der that such investigation be carried on
in the most thorough and impartial man
ner, we request Gov. Rich to appoint a
special commissioner to conduct the in
vostigation.

father of God fearing people. So he
must have mighty faith. And for this
he must have n training. And he had it
at "Ur Of the Chaldees.' There was not

religions also right there ~ the patri-
urrh's birthplace. The descendants of
Shen had kept something Of the purity
of the ancient faith. But the sous of
Ham, III their wanderings. had swung
away from it aud had gone to wOr

great temple at "Ur of the Chaldees'
was sacred to the moon The god of
war was the sun Already the astro-
logers had begun to fUretell the destiuies
Of men by Cuujuring with the stars, and
priestly magicians to play upon the
peoples superstilious fears with their
lamentations. 1t was idolatry against the
worlds primitive faith The issue was
joined at "Ur of the Chaldees." But the
iulatry had the power of the conquering
race behind it. 1t had the cities and the
temples and the kings. And, no doubt.

Abram To hold fast his faith in the hN-
ing God indeed, there r. reason to
think that he stood almost alone in his
loyalty: for his own father had departed
from the faith and was serving other
gods (Joshua 24:2l. And. u little later.
we find idols in his own brothers house
hold Gen. 81 800. Well nigh alone he
must have stood. with his band of faith
full followers, against the defections of
his own people, and against the precau-
tions of their conquerors. But he stood.
Tradition says that in his zeal for pure
faith he broke III pie es his own fathers
idols, whereupon the king threw him
upon burning pyre. out of whose
flames God delivered him. And the
tradition may be true. for the prophet
Isaiah speaks of the Lords having re-
deemed him lisa. 29:22). But whether
tried in martyr fires or not, he certainly
was tried. He stood for God against the
prevailing idolatry. Hence the might
of his faith. 1t had grown strong under
trial. And so he was fitted To go forth,
at the call of God, to become the
founder of "a great nation" In which

old mans version of the story as told by

says:
'lnstead of threatening his father.

Young man who IL generally known as
Gus had called on him once with
reference to tins intention of his to
bring suit. but he dld not believe that
he was serious.
1T must be. continued Mr.. Short
ridge, that this young man is either
crazy or is being egged on IN this matter
by bad advisers. The suit is brought in
the name of II. A. Woolley, but him
regard simply as beneath contempt.
They have struck the wrong men if
they think to COerCe or intimidate Claus
SpreCkels and his two sons into paying
them money. If that is their object.
What makes me think it must be case
of eXtortion is the fact that the filing of
the complaint was suppressed from

mans attorneys came to us and pro-
posed to continue its suppression if we
would settle at their terms. OF course
we rejected such "a corrupt proposal
