from this city, and lynched three ne
groes, Frank Howard, Sam Reed and
Ernest Harrison. They hanged the men
to cross beam in John McAuley's
mill. The crime for which che men were
hanged was the murder of an old and
respected negro, Wash Thomas. Sat-
urday night they waylaid Thomas on the
railroad track. hit him with a club. kill
ing him and then robbed the dead body.
The murderers confessed their crime be-
fore the mob. The murdered man was
employed in a tobacco factory. His
slayers worked in a brickyard. Every
thing was quiet i'm Wickliffe this morn
ing and the bodies of the men were still
