NEGRO'S BODY BURNED
Was Shot to Death at Cedartown,
Ca, For Assaulting White Girl.
IDENTIFIED BY HIS VICTIM
The Negro Then Confessed His Guilt
and Was Shot 10 Death and His
Body Burned at the Stake On the
Public Square.

Body Burned at the Stake On the
Public Square.
Cedartown, Ca, Aug. %. - Jim
Glover, a negro, was shot TO death
near the home OF the white girl he had
assaulted. and his body dragged a dis
tsnce of about a mile into this city
and burned at the stake on the public
square. A mob estimated at 800 COM
posed the shooting and burning party.
The crime for which the negro was
thus punished was that of committing
n criminal assault upon Leyia Reeves.
the 13-yeaT-0ld daughter OF a we'll
known farmer
The true story of the crime Is the
most revolving that had ever been
given to the public from this imme-
date section OF the country. After the
little girl had protected the negro from
the attack of a large dog owned by her
father. he followed her to the pasture
where she was taking a COW, caught
her. choked her into insensibility and
left her bleeding and unconscious in
a corn field.
BloOdhOunds had been on the negros
track all day, and he was captured
some distance away, carried to the
home OF the girl, who unhesitatingly
identified him as her assailant. and
taken by the crowd some distance
from the girls home and shot to death.
The negro confessed his guilt. lmme-
diately the crowd took him away from
the posse which had captured him, and
his body was riddled with bullets.
The crowd continued to gather, and
when the march back to the town
with the dead body in tow began 1t APP
peared as if fully 1000 persons had
Joined the procession. BY the time the
crowd reached Cedartown several hun
dred more had been added 10 the
crowd. About 1000 persons witnessed
the burning as best they could in the
bright moonlight on the most cCnspie-
uous place on Main street.
