many weeks since Jones was put 10

body could be seen the cOlored people

shop and the undertaken was COM

could view it and then pass out.
Thousands of cOlored people have
passed the body and the greatest
curiosity has been exhibited concern

Jones murdered a colored woman,
set fire to the house and burned four
children. The negroes were greatly
incensed at this wholesale murder
and wanted to lynch Jones, but were
prevented by the white people.
Demands have been made by ne

work IN the large cities Of the world
there are many who have had strangs

died, leaving the boy alone in the
world.
The sea had an attraction for him
and he secured a place as cabin boy
on the ship Vanguard, remaining on
the vessel for several years until he
was promoted to be the cooks assist
