Louis F. Mccoy. twenty three years old.
formerly a member of Virginia volun-
teer regiment. but who was recently SEN
fenced to serve six months in the District
jail, after being convicted OF a charge of
carrying concealed weapons, was yesterday
admitted to the Emergency Hospital suf-
fering from appendicitis, and will be
operated upon today. At a late hour last
night the condition OF the man was re-
ported as serious, and 1t appears now that
the only means of saving his life is
resort to the contemplated operation. Nc
Coy was sentenced about four months ago
and still has two months to serve. Shortly
after Incarceration Mccoy showed symp-
toms of the disease. The attacks were
recurrent. but were not of a serious nature
until yesterday when the man evinced such
unmistakable signs OF suffering that it was
decided to send him to the hospital. Nc
Coy is a member of the celebrated Mccoy
family of the Big Sandy River. a family
noted for the feuds existing between It
and the Hatfield family, during the course
Of which several lives have been lost and
several persons injured. The patient at
the hospital is said to have been once
wounded by a Hatfield bullet.

SAVED FROM A MOB.
An Accused Negro Secreted by Geor-

Cedartown, Ca. June Grant Bell. the
has been removed from the county Jail by
the officers. and his whereabouts are un-
known. This precaution was taken by
Sheriff Hogg when he received word that a
mob of men was forming in Rockmart,
Rome. and other nearby towns for the pur-
pose of coming here to lynch Bell. Men
are searching for the sheriff and his pris-
oner and the probability of lynching
is by no means averted.
The mob which formed about the Jail
Saturday night did not disperse until rear-
ly daylight. and only then upon the posi-
tive assurance of Judge Jones that he
would call special term of court for Mon
day to try the prisoner for his life. Many
members of the mob wanted TO lynch the
negro at once, but the Judgment of law
abiding and cooler-headed citizens prevail

The negro stoutly maintains his innocence.
When talked with in his cell, he said:
For Gods sake. do all you can to save
me. for il they hang me they will hang an
innocent man. The truth will be known
as sure as there is a God in heaven
Bell says the crime was committed by
one of Mrs. Lumpkin's servants. Mrs.
Lumpkin says she was aroused from her
slumbers by the negro, and before she
could make an outcry he had seized and
overpowered her. One OF the strongest
speeches made to the mob Saturday night.
urging the mob to let the law take its
course, was that OF Col. David A. White

asked the mob to disperse and allow the
negro to have a fair and impartial trial.
