from the clouds sweeping away the dams,
which in turn settled into a vast swirling
stream, which rushed through the valley
where the mills were situated.
Saturday afternoon the waters were
roaring above the homes in settlement
where on Friday a thousand laborers
were busy. The property loss, it is be-
lieved, will reach S2000,0O0. Many cot
tages were swept away in the terrific
food with their inmates. who were asleep
when he storm burst upon -hem and
cut off their chance Of escape.
Pacolet and Clifton are situated in the
defiles of two valleys and m3st of the
homes of the workmen are located in the
valley near the mills in which they la
bored. Their situation was trap-like, and

its flood of water.

by the mob despite the appeals of the
Mayor and other officials { order. The
mob conducted it's work in perfectly or.
derby manner, and many of the citizens
of Belleville knew nothing of the lynch
ing.
Hertel was shot in his Office by the
teacher, who had called to have his GER
tifcate renewed. A young man named
Fielder was in the office when the shoot
ing occurred. He grappled with Wyatt.
but the negro beat him of with the butt
of his revolver, inficting severe scalp
wound. A passing policeman hurried
into the room and succeeded in arresting
the negro. He was hurried to the county
Jail and the place was surrounded with
policemen, as it was feared that a mob
would form.
A couple of hours passed when sud
denly an orderly crowd Of determined cit
liens appeared before the Jail and forced
a passage to Wyatt's cell Securing the
prisoner they dragged him out and hang
ed him. Before being executed Wyatt
asserted the shooting was the result of a
