Awaiting death on the gallows in

New Orleans, is man who was saved

mob by so slight an incident as the
accidental scratching of match.
Williams Mccoy, who has been
guilty of assaultins woman in Lafay-
cite parish, was on trial there. His
victim had identified him and the
townspeople decided to lynch him.
Threats of burning were openly made.
and Mccoy expected to be taken out
and horribly used. On the last day of
the trial mob entered the courtroom
with the avowed purpose of attacking
the prisoners guards as soon as the
verdict was read and lynching him.

The sheriff had extra deputies. but
the mob was so large that there SEEM
ed no hope OF saving Mccoy. The
Judge received the verdict and read II.
The mob started forward. At that in.
slant, when the fight was about to
begin, some one stepped upon a match,
which made a loud report, and it was
mistaken for a pistol shot.
Mccoy tainted and the mob, believ.
ing he had been shot, stampeded. The
sheriff hustled him away and locked
him up, putting the key of the Jail in
the bank vault. Later Mccoy was
brought to this city and now awaits
death, He has been refused a new
