CiIIcBdo, jan. S.-Polce Inspector
Stuart has boon asked to take some &C.

ceivod recently by Lee Nance, colored,
from unknown persons In Columbus, 0.
The letter refors to the murder OF
Naucc's father in Newberry, s. c., 20
years ago, and contains threats against
Nance's life. A portion VI the letter is
q, follows:
Fifteen yeara ago you appeared in
Newberry, S. O., with the avowed pur.
pose, as 1t was reported, OF avenging tho
death OF the radical leader, Lee Nance,
Sr., your father. But you skipped out
like coward before any arrangements
could DO made. You had no need to
fear for lack OF prominent white friends.
You called at the Newbcrry Herald
office. aud Its editors, in the presence
OF Major Nance and Colonel Robert
HOLMAN, gave you assurance OF their
good will and friendship. They had all
been your fathers friends. even boldly
frustrating the plans OF our faithful fol.
lowers on more occasions than ono, but
in '6S We succeeded In our determine.
ton TO kill the hated radical leader be.
cause we all believed he was mainly to
blame for the murder OF one OF our
bravest men named Ward.
I'VE have never heard much OF YOU
since you hurried ont Of Newberry in
1850, until lately, when, by chance, u
book iell into our hands, evidently
written by you, In which several pages
arc devoted to description Of "A Muir
derer's Plight Notwithstanding the
fact that you refrain from mentioning
the death OF your father, we think the
murderer meant il some one OF us,
Furthermore, we have learned that you
were at the bottom OF the church meet.
ing held in Chicago just a week after
tho election, whereat Sheriff Cook, OF
Fayeste county, O.. was Endorsed and
praised for his work OF killing white
men for trying to lynch a niger.
Now. you shall not keep this up and
we don't believe you had ought to live
anyway. Blu. We intend to give you
chance. Some OF us will be in Chicago
the frat Of the year, when an arrange.
ment can be made ior settling the old
score with rifles or otherwise. There
are several OF us-father, son and grand.
sons. but only one OF US can be accused
Of the crime OF twenty.slS years ago.
Yet We are all abottors OF It and are
agreed as to you. Therefore be not sur
prised 10 zee us soon."
Mr.. Nance said he did not know the
authors OF the letter. The man, he said,
who murdered his father was named
Fitzgerald. He had heard nothing OF
him except that Fitzgerald had moved
to Fayeste county, Ohio. Mr.. Nance
saws he has received many letters OF a
similar character, but has never paid
any attention 10 them until he received
the above.
