NARROWLY ESCAPED LYNCHING IN
Saluda, July 3.-WilI Jones as
he calls himself, u hideous looking
black monster, is now safe behind
the bars of the Saludajall charged
with the crime that white people
will not tolerate and for which
quick vengeance is usually meted

ing in the last 24 hours.
On Thursday night noise was
heard on the door of a room of
the house of Mr.. Warren Kirk
land, highly respected citizen of
this county living near Richard
sonville, occupied as bedroom
by his youngest daughter, now
about 1Sor 20 years of age.
The young woman was awaken>
ed and ran to her fathers room
and reported that some one was at
her room door. The old gentle
man sprang out of bed and rush.
ing out discovered the form of
negro stealing off in the darkness.
Five weeks ago he employed Will
Jones to work for him and he was
impressed at once with the re-
semblance between the negro run
ing away from the house and the
stranger whom be had had in his
employ for short time.
Next day Mr.. Kirkland deter.
mined to boldly confront Jones
and charge him with the offense.
AT first he bitterly denied snv
knowledge of it but at last made
a confession and also stated that
this was not the first time he had
gone to the place for the purpose
OF ofentering the young lady's room,
but his heart heretofore had failed
him and he went away without
making any noise.
The neighbors were soon ap,
prised of this statement and the |
negro was carried off into the
woods and kept there through
most of the day. The question of
killing him on the spot was fully
debated, but as stated above.
