MURDER ! MURDER !
MURDER !
Sensational Story Precisely as
Told by an Esteemed and We'll
Meaning Contemporary.
Chesterfield Advertiser, 18th.

MURDEB G.! MURDER MURDER
Yesterday morning, news Of
ono of the foulest crimes that has
ever been committed in Chester
field county reao he'd this Office and
was brought by gentleman from
the scene of the crime.
On last Monday night, Cassie
Boan, white woman of very
Fashionable character was cut and
burned to death in the woods,
about five miles southeast of
jefferson. The woman was cut
in five different places on the
body-each cut being deep flesh
wound. The gashes ranged from
4 to IL inches in length. This
not satisfying the perpetrator or
perpetrators of of the deed-the
poor woman was.set on fire and
all clothing was burned from her
body.
This crimo is shocking IN every
detail. A helpless woman cut and
burned to death in the dead hours
of the night in the woods, nearly
milo from any ones house. Her
screams for mercy sounding on
the night air only led to the dis
covery of the deed. The unfor-
tunats woman fingered until noon
on Tuesday when death came.
The coroner is now holding an in
quest over the body.
Ah murder most foul A
blacker crime cannot be conceived.
The very thought of it sickens a
= civilized people.
Such a crime will not and must
not go unpunlShcd.
Our civilization demands that
the perpetrators be brought to
justice.
The law OF South Carolina must
be upheld and tho fiends who
took a womans' life in the dead of
night in the lonely woods mnst
not escape. The verdict of the
coroner's jury has not yet been
rendered.
Drs. d L Teal and 6 w Greg
ory made an examination of tho
Wounds.
