a Condemned Negro Taken From n Mary

BALTIMORE, MD, May 2S.-Jacob
Henson. the young colcred man recently
tried and convicted in Howard County
Court ard sentenced TO be hanged June
eth, was taken from the Ellicott city Jail
early this morning and hanged to the
limb of a dogwood tree. The lynchng was
the work of about twenty determined
men, who thus avenged the murder OF
Daniel f. Shea. which was one of the
most brutal crimes ever committed IN
Howard county. The lynchers feared that
the Governor Of Maryland might be in
duced to interfere and commute the
dead mans sentence 10 life imprisonment.
The grounds for this apprehension came
from recent repeated visits to the jail OF
specialists I'm mental diseases 70 inquire

lief has been growing that Hcnson's sem

spirited away to the Baltimore pcniten-
tiary. The effect Of this belief was found
in a placard which was left pinned TO the
breast Of the lynched negro. Oh which
was written:
1--WE respect our court and judges

This seems strange considering that

their dependence almost entirely upon

proportion from 81 per cent. In former
years 10 90 per cent. this year. while AT
