CURIOUS STORY FROM COLLETON.
It is Said That Man Has Confessed to the
Murder of His Wife, for Which Three
Negroes Were Lynched.
Charleston Post.

Charleston Post.
\ story is being told in Colleton
county that Section Foreman Jones
OF the Atlantic Coast Line. while
on his deathbed a few weeks ago,
confessed to t;:e murder Of his wife,
who was killed at Ravenel in May.
1902. and that the three negroes,
Jim Black. James Ford and Thom-
as Pryor, who were lvnched for the
crime, were entirely innocent of it.
The murder of Mrs. Jones was
one OF the most shocking ever COM
nitted in the State. Her dead body
was found one morning during the
latter part Of May in the dog house
in the rear of her yard with the
throat cut and the head crushed in
from terrific blows delivered with
some heavy instrument. The body
OF the murdered woman was dis
covered BY her little daughter, who
reported to her father, who was at
work down the railroad track, that
her mother had been killed. Hur-
rving home Jones found the body
in the dog house and he seemed
completely overcome with grief.
It was believed that the crime
was committed By negroes for the
purpose Of robbery. The theory
was that the negroes went to Jones
residence that morning after he had
gone off to work. killed Mrs. Jones
and dragged her body into the yard
and threw it into the dog house and
became frightened and ran away
before looting the house.
The news Of the killing spread

That Bridge Contract.


Both the Register and Tribune fell
over themselves last week to jump
onto the commissioners for letting the
contract for the Ellinwood bridge to
other than the lowest bidders. The
editors of those two papers are so
narrow minded and party blinded
that they did not stop to investigate
the actual situation in this matter. If
they had done so, they would have
known that 1t did not make one cents
difference to the county whom the
bridge contract vas let to, as the
county can only appropriate $4,000 to
that purpose, and the citizens OF
Comancqe township put up the bal
ance-or more than half the cost, and
that amount they put up by voluntary
subscriptions. 1t was no business of
the commissioners-muc less of the
Tribune and Register people-who
the Comanche men wanted to build
the bridge. The commissioners were
compelled to call for bids in order to
appropriate the $4,000. The Conan
che township people had a perfect
right to engage whom they pleased.
In this instance, as IN all other at
tacks, the papers above referred to
the Tribune and Register-have
made upon the county commissioners,
they overreached themselves, and they
jumped rough shod onto four of the
most prominent republicans of the
county-Thos. DeWerff, the trustee,
and Louis Hagen, Martin Sessler and
Chas. Wiilms.
