Especial to The Messenger
Raleigh, N. c., July 31.-The people
of Henderson are greatly excited over
the case of criminal assault and are
anxious that the law shall be properly
vindicated. Through Mr.. Cooper they
special term of court to try the cul-
prit.
The governor replied to Cooper's tel
egram: Il order special term, Judge
Brown to preside, for August 10Th, ear
liest day the law allows. Tell the peo-
pie to hang him by law, if guilty"
A telegram from Major Francis A.
Macon, Of the governors staff, said:
Subject T. p. Jones and the Hender-
son company to my orders, the people
will then submit without trouble and
obey your court" The governor re-
piled: Tell the people not to lynch, but
try and hang him by law"
The governor telegraphed Sheriff W.
H. Smith, of Vance: Apply to Cap
tain Jones, Of the Henderson company,
Of the state guard to uphold the law
if necessary
The sheriff telegraphed the governor:
ALLOW me to bring the rapist to Wake
Jail. 1t is unsafe here" The governor
replied: IF you deem the prisoner un-
safe bring him on the first train to
Raleigh
The negro's name is George Brodie
He is very black and seems to be about
20 years old. He was brought here this
afternoon and jailed. Sheriff Smith
brought him with Captain Smith and
six enlisted men of the Vance guards
as escort. He was hurriedly placed on
a train at Henderson, and but few peo-
pie there knew he was to be removed.
Sheriff Smith says there is no doubt
of Brodie's guilt; that the latter told
what he was doing. The sheriff says
Miss Catlett had gone to a spring $50
yards from her home at Kittrells. Bro
die, she says, drew a knife when she
screamed and threatened her with
death if she screamed again. Brodie
denies his guilt, but Henderson man
said he stated there last night that he
knew he would be hanged and only
wanted time for preparation. Feeling
against him in Henderson is intense.
1t is bitter here also. Negroes are loud
in denouncing his crime. Miss Catlett
is said by a gentleman here who knows
her to be about IS years old.
