ANOTHER MAN ROASTED.
Tyler the Scene, and a Kansas Man
the Victim,

j
the Victim,
A fool fellow by the name of O.
], Hill, of Kansas City, Missouri,
who claims to be at the head Of
several cooperage factories 1.-TWO in
this State wrote the following let
ter to Mayor J, M. Sharp, of Tyler
Texas
'KANsAs CITY, Mo-, Oct. 81, '95.
"Your town ought to be wiped
of the face of the earth. 1t is a
disgrace to civilization, Every man
with spark of humanity in him
will help to spread the everlasting
infamy you have broughtupon your
community. The honor Texas won
in suppressing a brutal fight has
been lost in the thousand times
greater brutality of your citizens,
(Signed) O. ]. HILL"
THE ROAST.
When Milo Sharp read this let
ter, he got red-headed and got up
on his official chair and swore that
ne had run upon a heap of dirty
men, but this Kansas scamp, who
had dared to write him, was the
lowest, mangiest cur in the whole
kennel of human ours he had ever
encountered. He could not kick his
miserable carcass, for distance pre-
vented, neither could he smite his
cheek, for he was not within reach,
and the only thing left for the May
or to do was to pen him an epistle
which ran as follows;
TYLER, Tex, Nov. 4.
0, j. Hill, Kansas City, Mo-
] have a letter that is supposed
to be intended Tor me, as Mayor of
Tyler, but from the sentiment eX-
pressed, ! can not think you worthy
OF official notice and consequently
will say but little, even as a citizen.
If could believe you more worthy
than the brute who was burned on
our public plaza, would send you
full particulars of the crime, con-
fession, ETC., but when a man gets
50 low that he will not protect the
life and virtue OF his wife, mother
and sister, / suggest that Kansas
City Is as near our sacred Texas
homes as we want him. Should
Texas ever be called upon to toler-
ate 50 contemplate a carcass as |
think Kansas City can claim in the
person of yourself, ] should advise
you not to allow true Texan 10
know who you are, The negroes of
our city and county fully endorse
what was done, Then why should
we listen to the barking of a COM
mon cur on the outside, when Tex
as and her people are fully able to
protect her women. But knowing
the probable result Of a long shot
at a small target, and respecting
my people too much to give you of
fetal notice, will state that am
proud to live in a land where pure
women are loved and protected.
j. M. SHARP,
If this man Hills hide Is not too
thick, this roast should be sufficient
TO consume him, body and soul But
why talk about negro loving
white man having shame, such a
thing never enters his breast We
would advise Hill, If he does not
want some more fagots from Mayor
Sharps pen to stay out Of his
reach and let him alone,

caught in a collapsed building in
Detroit day before yesterday and
some thirty or forty persons lost
