Of Which Died. ~

Huntsville, Ala, May 13.-The corpses
of two negresses, Nellie Smith and
Mandy White, are dangling from the
limb of live oak just on the outskirts
of the village of JEFF. They were hanged
Tuesday night for poisoning Joshua
Kelly, well-known citizen. They con-
fessed to two attempts on the lives Of
the Kelly family. The first attempt re-
suited in the death Of Mr.. Kelly. Sheriff
j. P. Powell has gone to the scene TO
cut down the bodies. The lynching was
participated in by 20 or 30 persons.
Nine weeks ago the first attempt on
the lives of the Kelly family was made.
The family sickened shortly after>eat-
ing supper, and Joshua Kelly died "a
hours afterward: On May the family
and tenants of the deceased were poi
soned again in some mysterious man
ner. There were six whites and eight
negroes affected. Messrs. D. E. and
Iamson Kelly became critically ill, as
did Mrs. E. Kelly. Oakley Woodward,
clerk in store, who came near dying
from the other poisoning, and Ten
nessee drummer who spent the night
with them, were two other victims. In
eliminating evidence was found Sat-
urday at the Kelly home at jeff, and a
clew in the shape of box of poison
led to the detection of the negresses.
The premises were searched and UNDER
meath the kitchen was found box of
poison, On it was stamped the trade
mark of D. E. & j. o. Kelly, the grocers
at jeff. The poison, which was rough
on rats, was placed in the biscuits which
ell the affected ate.
