ing the intense excitement OF the night
ended by the mob about the prison
getting hold of Clint Mitchell, the
negro who assaulted Mrs. Gannery,
and hanging him. Yesterday after
noon, he confessed, and was hurriedly
tried and given twenty years. The
sheriff fearful of the mob, tried to
spirit him away to Columbus. The
militia were called out, but could not
silence the angry crowd. An effort
was made to disguise Mitchell as a
soldier and get him out of the Jail.
The mob howled about the building all
night, and at 2 O'Clock, this morning,
when making an exciting effort, the
militia fired on them, killing two men,
and dangerously wounding seven. This
intensified the feeling. For Eve hours
the mob grew, and finally overpower-
ed the soldiers and at z O'Clock, this
morning, got possession OF Mitchell.
lynching him promptly. The town Is
still in an uproar.
The mob had increased to several
thousand, when it attacked the jail
with sledge hammers. On bursting
open the doors, the sheriff delivered
the keys, and the soldiers hid them-
selves. The leaders visited Mitchell's
cell, threw rope around his neck, and
dragged him to the first tree where ne
was soon swung in mid-air. The rope
was not fastened but see-sawed by the
mob. At one jerk Mitchell's face
struck limb and was flattened.
The fury of the mob was such that
Mitchell was almost torn to pieces, and
1t is believed he was dead before the
lacerated body was hanged.
Hundreds OF women were in the
crowd. The body of Mitchell hanged
for an hour. Thousands of spectators,
inclu ling children, viewed the distort-
ed, lacerated features. Schools were |
deserted, and the best citizens took |
part.
Mrs. Gaumer supplied milk 10 the |
hotel at which Mitchell was employed,
and Mitchell visited the Gaumer resi-
dence after her children had gone TO !
school, and frightfully assaulted her.
She is reported dying. this morning.
The mayor has ordered the troops |
home. Had they remained, more
bloodshed would have followed. Be-
tween the two attacks, the mob had
prepared to use dynamite upon the
Jail. This afternoon the negroes re-
mains we're still in an open box. The

seventeen piles above $40, and Crenshaw'
twelve piles above that figure.
Planters should not crowd the buyers as
they did to-day for in so doing sales are
retarded and tobacco frequently over
