Negro Postmaster Killed and Other Mem
beers of His Family Shot.
Atlanta, Feb 23.-A special from Co
lumbia, S. O., to The Constitution says:
The most revolving crime ever perpe-
trated by white men in South Carolina
was committed at Lake City, Williams.
burg county, at / O'Clock yesterday
morning.. when Postmaster Baker, ne
gro, and his family We're burned out of
their home, the postmaster and a babe
in arms were killed and his wife and
three daughters shot and manned for
life. Baker was appointed postmaster
three months ago. Lake City is town
Of 500 inhabitants, and the negro popu-
lation in the vicinity is large. There
was protest at Bakers appointment,
but not very vigorous.
Three months ago, as the postmaster
was leaving the Office one night in COM
pany with several colored men, he was
fred on from ambush but it was not
known that the wouldbe assassins was
prompted by other than personal malice.
Since then Baker moved his family into
house ON the outskirts of the town,
where he also established the postoffice.
Only a short time ago body of men
who kept concealed behind buildings in
the neighborhood riddled the building
with bullets. They shot high and no one
was hurt, but it was supposed to convey
warning. Just before this Senators
Tillman and McLaurin and Congress-
man Holmes had asked the postmaster
general to remove Baker because of his
color and the request had been refused.
Baker did not leave his family and give
no evidence Of being frightened. He
felt confident Of protection from Wash
ington.
At 1 o'clock in the morning a torch
was applied to the postoffice and b.
ker's house. Just within the line of
light were over 100 white men armed
with pistols and shotguns By the time
the fire aroused the sleeping family, con-
sisting of the postmaster, his wife and
four daughters, a son and an infant at
the breast, the crowd began firing into
the building A hundred bullet holes
were made through the thin boarding
and many found marks in the people
within. Baker was the first to the door,
but fell dead just within the threshold,
being shot in several places. The moth
er had the babe in her arms and had
reached the door over her husbands
body when bullet crashed through its
skull and it fell to the floor. She was
shot in several places. Two of the girls,
had their arms broken in the shoulder
and will probably lose them. Another
of the girls is believed to be fatally
wounded. The boy is shot.
Two of the seven occupants of the
house escaped with slight injuries. The
bodies of Baker and the infant were
cremated In the building. All mail mat
ter was destroyed.
A coroner's jury was impaneled yes
terday evening and visited the charred
remains and adjourned till Saturday.
Bitter Indignation is expressed every

A Pleasant Outing.

Among the pleasant DAYS to be re-
membered were last Saturday and
Sunday spent in enjoying camp out
and a sail on the bay. A party of
twenty-five, burdened with huge bas-
kets of provisions, rolls of blankets,
guns, and umbrellas, met shortly af-
ter the noon hour, Saturday, at the
most popular place in Equality, the
dining hall, and from there walked to
the boat landing at Blanchard, and
boarded the sloop Progress" bound
for Eliza Island, The sweet strains
of the violin, guitar and clarionet,
mingled with the gentle voices of the
party raised in song, made the hours
pass swiftly, and when the shades of
evening were falling reached their
destination. The vacant buildings.
left as memories of what was once a
summer resort, were occupied as
headquarters for the night. After a
lunch around a camp fire, dancing
was indnlged in to while away the
evening hours.
Lanterns we're hung on the walls of
the long shadowy ball room, the moon
light CLEANED across the bay through
the open easements to light up the
smiling faces, and the music echoed
through the room to tighten the tired
feet, and not until late hour did the
parties seek their pillows of hay for
little repose. The next morning
was spent in wandering over the
beach, and then fine sail around the
island and home.
A wagon and team to convey the
luggage and mementoes was one of
the pleasant features of the retui n
home.
Among those who composed the
party we're: Mrs. G. Z. Pelton, Misses
EVE and Florence Pelton, Mabelle
Odell, Edith and Myrta Burgess, Hat
tie Fisher, Maude Turner, Kate Hal.
