Parker Wanted to Lynch Him.
The Negro Who Helped Overcome
Czolgosz Says if He Had been
in Georgia He Would Have
Been Killed Immediately
Parker's Story Of the
Shooting of the Presi-
dent.
Special to Charlotte Observer.

ID Iarker' tne georgia negrs
who knocked down Czolgosz the
moment after he shot the Presi-
dent, was found today and gave
a graphic account of the tragic
occurrance.
81 was next in line behind the
anarchist who shot the President, ;"
he said. 81 tried to get in front
of hin several times, but he
pushed me back with his elbow.
A little girl had just shaken hands
with the President when the as
sassin reached him. Czolgosz had
the revolver concealed in a hand
kerchief which was wrapped
around the revolver and his hand.
Czolgosz did not extend his left
hand, as some of the newspapers
report. The President thought
Czolgosz's right hand was sore,
and put out his hand. As he did
so the anarchist fired twice. |
struck him on the nose with my
right fist and reached with my
left hand to take the pistol from
him. Several of the marines
thought the officer was the man
who did the shooting, but be
pointed to where had Czolgosz
down on the floor and said: There
Is the man who shot him. Czol-
gosz raised his pistol again to
shoot either the President or nv
self, but ut that time | choked
him so hard that he couIdn't shoot
| struck him so hard that the
blood gushed from his nose. We
struggled some seconds before the
Secret Service officers reached US.
Tnen one of them, think it was
Foster, struck him and said: you
Id sconndrel, how dare Won
shoot our President 2 / wanted
to cut his throat, but they took
him from me.
81 believe that my striking
Cznlgasz kept him from shooting
until no emptied his pistol and
probably prevented the Preeident
from being wounded again"
Parker is native of Georgi..
His mother was Savannah color
cd woman and his father was a
half Spanish and half negro from
St. Johns Island, off Charleston.
He has been living in Buffalo
since last March and had for SOW
eral months been employed in the
Plaza Restaurant, in the exposition
grounds. He got off from his
! work in order to shake hands with
the President, and was i'm
mediately behind the assassin.
Parker considers Atlanta as his
home, he having lived most of his
life there, working In the North
at intervals. He says he only did
his duty but does not relish tho
way in which the Secret Service
men have attempted to create the
impression that they ovsrcame
the assassin. He only regrets
that he was not allowed to kill
Czolgosz. "The twenty thousand
white people there ought not to
have expected a niger to do it
all, !" he said. "Some of them
ought to have helped me kill him.
We would have fixed him quick
in Georgia.
Parker is in deadly fear of the
anarchists and says he will leave
Buffalo soon, because he is afraid
they will kill him.
