A CoIored Man Taken From
Prison and Hanged.
Thirty Hangmen all Wearing Masks
Performed thu Terrible Ceremony.
The Victim Shrieked for Mercy From
His Pitiless Executioncrs.

ELLIooTr CITY, Nd, May 28.-Jacob
Henson (colored), under sentence Of death
for the murder of Daniel Shea, was hanged
by lynchers about / O'Clock this morning.
Ellicott City was wrapped in slumber
when the desperate men began to assem-
BILE. There were twenty or thirty
Of them, and all wore masks.
They came by twos and threes and
assembled near the jail. No alarm was
given, and the first information Chief OF
Police Vansant had of their presence was
the leaders Of the throng demanding ad-
mittance to the jail. He attempted to
parley with them, but it was Of no use.
"We have come for Henson and we mean
to have him." was the only answer given
to him. Vansant refused to open the jail
doors, but a heavy stick OF timber proved
as effiaNcious as key and the mob was
soon inside OF the little prison.
Henson covered in his cell and when
he caught sight of the black veiled
figures, as they were revealed by the dim
light Of single lantern, he shrieked for
mercy, swearing that he had never
killed Shea.
1t was useless. Half q dozen deter
mined men broke open the cell door and
placed rope around the negro's neck. He
was more dead than alive whom dragged
from the cell. He foil upon his knees and
alternately prayed and cursed, but deter
mined hands were at the end of the
rope and he was dragged face downward
on the jail steps. In the open air he
seemed to revive and struggled
to his feet, determined to fight
for life. For moment OF
two there was a desperate struggle, but
Henson was quickly overcome, and was
half dragged, half carried from the center
of the town. On passing the place where
the murder was committed, the mob hur-
ried him TO his fate.
Merricks lane seemed TO offer a con-
venient place for the last act of the
tragedy, and Henson was hurried
along until Patapsco Institute
and its sleepy inmates were left
behind. Then he end of the rope was
thrown over the branch OF tree, there q
was q final shrek, ending in q CHASTITY
rattle, as the murderer was swung clear
off the ground, and the tragedy was over.
No shots were fired. and the mob dispersed
rs quickly as ii had assembled.
placard was left pinned to him, on which
was writton: "Ne respect our court and
judges. Governor Brown forced the law.
abiding citizens 10 carry out the verdict Of the
jury. wmTEcAPs."
Tho lynchcrs feared that the Governor of
Maryland might be induced TO interfere. and
commute the dead mans sentence TO life i'm.
prisonment. The grounds for this apprehen-
sion came from the recent repeated visits t.
the Jail Of one or two specialists in mental
diseases TO inquire into Honson's sanity. and
the reported intention Of Governor Brown
himself 90 come here for the same purpose
one day this week.
The murder of Daniel Shea was committed
about three months ago. With no other in
centivo than robbery. the negro beat his em
ployer's head with an iron bar. and left him
dead in n room over the latter's store where
he had lived alone.

Thoro occurred curious incident OF
which no mention is made i'm the books
which have treated OF tho closing scenes
at Appunattox. Tho muskots of tho Con
federates were allowed To remain stacked
on tho field. Tho grass caught fire in
somo way and was allowed TO burn. So
suddenly had tho fighting ceased on the
morning Of the 9th that thousands Of the
pieces woro left loaded. As tho flames Of
the grass cropt along the line OF stacked
muskcts tho guns were heated 90 firing
heat and soon there was incCssant pop
ping. The balls went up into the air al-
most straight until tho force OF the dis
charge was spent and thon dropped down.
To this day the field OF surrender Is strown
with these bullets, and so little has Ap-
pomattox been visited that the balls are
easily found.
This firing Of tho muskets by the burn
ing grass was the only salute that accom-
panied the surrender. When Ice had re-
Ccivod Grants terms and accepted them,
the firing Of 100 guns In token Of victory
was begun, but Grant quickly stopped It.
