a drink of water. He then crimi- |
nally assaulted her and made his
escape. AS soon as it was known q
search was made for the negro. A |
negro was arrested up the Gulf and
Ship Island Railroad and carried to
Mrs. Gardner, but she said he was
not the right one. On Saturday
morning, June Z, Mr.. Gardner saw a
negro, Walter Bankhead, on the
streets of Hattiesburg, and had him
arrested as he seemed to answer the
description. Mrs. Gardner partially
identified him, saying she thought
he was the right negro. He was
placed in jail about noon Saturday,
June Z, and that night mob formed
to lynch him. But for the vigilance
Of the sheriff, he would have been
taken from the jail and at once
llynched. The sheriff was never
fully satisfied about the guilt of
Bankhead and determined to protect
him. He got instructions from the
governor and all night, all day Sum
day and until Monday morning the
local militia, aided by the local OFF,
GERS and the Ellisville Rifles stood
guard around the Jail and this saved
Bankhead's neck. On Monday morn
ing, under guard of the sheriff and
militia he was carried to Jackson for
safe-keeping.
/ A few days later Policeman Rishel
arrested Will Dantzler on charge
of passing a forged note on ] S
Turner & Co. and having stolen 6
watch and pistol. The negro did mo-
know the charge against him, anc
thinking he had been arrested fol
the assault on Mrs. Gardner he con
lfessed the whole matter and was a
once carried to Jackson.
On June 80 Judge Enochs conven
ed special term of the circuit court
The other negro, Walter Bankhead
who was brought from Jackson wa
released. After fair and impartia
trial, IN which Dantzler was repre-
sented by able counsel, he was, Jul,
, /, 1902, convicted and sentenced t.
be hanged today. After his frs
confession Dantzler denied his guilt
, but this week he said he would tel
q the truth and owned up to being til
a right man.

ripped eff the plank that enclosed
the galIows until almost everybody
could see.
Dantzler showed no signs Of fright.
From start to finish he went through
it without tremor.
The negro made rambling adj
dress from the platform similar to
the letter published in yesterdays
Progress, He thanked God that he
was all right and that he was going
to heaven. He warned everybody
not to do as he had done. He said
his crime didn't merit death, but il it
was Gods will it was all right. He
said, A colored man has no more
show here than bird dog or any
other kind of varmint." He said the
white people had the power here, but
they weuld all appear before the
same God. Several times he called
on the audience to hold up their
hands if they wanted or expected to
go to heaven. If anybody wanted to
see him hanged he wanted them to
hold up their hands and several
hands went up. He called on man
standing in the audience to lift a
boys hat off his head. The man did
so and Dantzler said, ''You see you
are guilty of taking that boys hat
off his head. l am just that guilty.
He said the rope and gallows 'cut no
ice" with him-that he wasn't afraid
to die. Wanted to know what race
compares to God?" No man knows
what his end will be-he never ex-
pected such an end. But was not the
first to die on the gallows and would
not be the last. He concluded by
saying if he had said anything
wrong he asked forgiveness for itand
saying, Goodbye to ALL
Father Greimel then prayed with
him, the condemned man repeating
the words.
The deputies then tied his feet and
adjusted the black cap.
Outside the enclosure stood Sheriff
Batson, with axe in hand, ready to
cut the rope. He called out and
said:
Are you ready, WHIP"
Yes, and goodbye" firmly an
swered Dantzler and the rope was
severed and the prisoners soul
was launched into eternity.

THE CRIME.

The crime for which VIII DantzIer
today suffered the extreme penalty
of the law, was committed June S,
1902, and in less than two months the
crime has been legally avenged. On
the above date Dantzler went out
from Hattiesburg on the Pearl and
Leaf River railroad and not having
any money or ticket, he was put off
the train about two miles out of the
city. He went TO the home or Ed
