about Harvey?"
Brother Lewis said Harvey was used
mostly by theological students.
Mr.. Meredith stated that we were

would accordingly rest his case on His

Mr.. Meredith asked brother Lewis

Mr. Meredith asked brother Lewis
whether the Troy council called some
years ago in Richmond was composed
altogether of churches in Shis vicinity.
Bro, Lewis admitted that it was not, but

brother Lewis and he was told to stand
aside; not however, before being asked
by Mr.. Meredith how many churches

OTHER WITNESSES.

Brother Henry G. Garter, who has
been known in these columns as Bro.
"Shad-belly" was called to the stand
and testified relative to the signing of
the names to the application for the
meeting.
Bro John J. Spottswood, known to
our readers as ''baby" testified also, but
they were not cross-examined to any
extent. Brother Peter Riley testified
that brother Giles Hayden had told him
that he had signed the paper for the
application for the meeting.
Mr.. Meredith:-"1f he told you that,
did you not know that it was untrue?
Did you not know that he cannot write?
Brother Riley replied in the negative
and he was allowed to retire.
Brother w. R. Minor testified that
brother Giles Hayden had told him in
brother Riely's presence that he had
signed the paper for the application for
the meeting.
SISTER HEWLETT AS A WITNESS.
Sister Margaret Hewlett was a most
amusing witness. She had been called
the fieshy sister by Mr. n M Smith,
Jr., and when she appeared, her looks
bore out the statement. She told about
the calling of the meeting, but blund-
cred IN contradicting some of the most
positive statements that brother Will
Jams had made when ON the witness
stand. Sister Hewlett was dumbfound-
ed when she was told by Mr.. Meredith
that she was contradicting brother
Nelson Williams, Jr.
She was of the opinion and so declar-
ed that Editor Mitchell had been mott
fed to be present at the first meeting,
the one in which brother Williams had
moved to exclude the Editor without a
hearing, and when she was told that
she vas all wrong in her statements,
her distress was apparent. Sister Hew-
lett did not tarry long on the witness
stand.
BROTHER RUSSELL SPOKE PLAINLY.
Brother John Russell was enc of the
most amusing witnesses summoned by
the court. What he didn't know would
fill book. He declared that he had
made the motion to adjourn the meet
ing when the peace committee was
coming in. He regarded this as a self
constituted committee.
"Are you a cooperationist or a anti.
cooperationists?" asked Mr.. Meredith

S2Cn copy OF the ILANEJ WAS nOI sep
arate and distinct. The .witness replied
that this was by no means true, that
n newspaper was q book, that if he
would look on the front page he would
see that it ran in volumes and that the
papers for each year constituteda book.
SOME CoLORED PEOPLE BELIEVED.
He wanted to know whether it was
not fact that the colored people would
believe that the charge of forgery relet-
ed to a criminal offense. He saw that
the witness had some knowledge of law
Editor Mitchell replied that if he was
referring to those kind of colored people
that were interrupting him at the First
Baptist church he would answer in the
affirmative. The witness had been care
full to state in each issue of the PLANET.
"who forged the names to application for
the meeting"
He reminded Mr.. Garter that his know
ledge of law taught him that a name
might be forged to a document or
paper and it would not constitute
criminal offense unless some loss was
sustained.
At this reply the counsel for the plain
tiff found it useless to cross examine
further and they announced to the
court that they were through with the
witness.
DIR. GRAHAM's TESTIMONY.
Rev. w. F. Graham, d. D., pastor of
the Fifth st. Baptist church was called
to the stand.
He was asked to explain the differ
ence between cooperation anti co-ope-
ration declaring that the co-operationists
acted in conjunction with the Northern
Societies and controlled all of the Schools
and publications that they operated
The anti-cooperationists composed the
National Baptist Convention and Co
operated with the Southern Baptist
Convention.
Under the latter arrangement the COL
Ored people had the management of
their own affairs and had the manage
ment of their own money, under the
former they seemed TO be afraid to trust
the southern colored people with a dol
lar less they steal it.
He explained about the application of
Editor Mitchell to the Fifth st. Baptist
church.
He told of the Baptist council held at
the church, of the findings of that coun-
Gil.
He explained that both cooperation
lists and INTERPRETATIONS had been in
NlGeu anu IIldt tu0 IIeSluOuG Oh the
General Association (colored) had also
been invited.
He declared that it was perfectly
proper to invite churches inside and out
side of the State. The members of the
council from New York and Pennsyl-
vania were southern men who were life
members of the Virginia Baptist State
Convention.
Mr.. Smith:-"Were there any cooper
ationists in that Baptist Council at the
Fifth Street Baptist church,"
ALL CooPERATIoNIsTS.
DIR. Graham.-"They were all COOP
erationists. ~
This reply created amazement and
Mr.. Smith looked at the witness and re-
peated the question, thinking that he
had made a mistake. "They all COOP
crate with the Southern Baptist Con-
vention, was the smiling rejoinder.
The laugh was on the plaintiffs coun-
sci and it was several minutes before
order could be restored.

Sort of Resistance by the
Prison Guard.

Wilmington, June pa mob or
couple of thousand broke into the
county work house, bent on lynching
George White, a negro who is held on
charge of assaulting and killing Helen
Bishop last week. The guards de-
Tended the place. and a boy and a
man, members of the mob, were shot
and slightly injured The guards placed
a strong stream of water from hose
into the crowd, which stubbornly held
it's ground and declared it would get
the negro.
The mob succeeded. The negro was
taken from the workhouse and the
mob started with him for Prices cor
ner, the scene of the assault and MUIR
der. The mob cut all wires leading to
Wilmington, which is five miles from
the workhouse, and at this writing it is
difficult to obtain reliable information.
The mob excitedly announced when it
had possession Of the negro that it
would burn him to death at Prices
corner.
Later-The negro was taken to the
scene of the crime. He there confessed
to having assaulted the girl. He was
then burned at the stake, and his body
riddled with bullets.
