When the door was opened there stood
Reinhart before them with blanched face
with his handouts slipped off and stove
leo in his hand, saying that he would
kill the first man who would lay his
hands on him. Leveled and cooked
rifles had no effect on him. Then, while
he was covered in front, others climbed
upon the roof and commenced tearing it
off to take him in the rear, when eX-
hausted from excitement he tainted. He
was then tied and placed upon sled
and driven about a mile on the Heidele
berg road, where a maple tree leaned
across the road. The team was stopped,
the rope adjusted to Remnants neck
with the other end over the tree, when
Picker in broken English asked the
wretched man: ''Now Reinhart, are
YOU ready to make the confess?" but
Reinhart claimed to be innocent. Picker
then gave the command. and Reinhart
was hoisted in mid air but was lowered
again and asked to confess again but
did not confess anything, when he was
hoisted up again until dead and left
hanging.
The lynching was entirely upon strong
circumstantial evidence There had been
no trial and no confession.
Mr. Frank Becker of Montgomery,
then young boy, was with the party,
prompted by curiosity to see what they
would do, and was an eye witness of the
lynching.

be keenly felt by her many friends. For
two years she has taught in the depart

her work in the class room been of the
highest quality but her strong person
ality and Christian character have helped
to mould many young lives, and they

men and women as well as better citi-
zens. Miss Colyer has rare ability as
a public speaker, and being an active
Christian worker her influence has been
felt more or less in all of the churches.
Last Sunday morning she filled the pull
pit of Centenary church to the delight of
all present. The influence of such mes
sage will be lasting.
Her talents are fully consecrated to
God and her ability as a public speaker
is recognized by all who know her. She
goes to her home in Morris for a short
rest. and on June 18th will return to
Red Rock camp-meeting, where she will
have charge of the Epworth league work
for two weeks. During the summer she
will assist in evangelistic meetings. A
work for which she is peculiarly fitted.
Her many friends will follow her with
interest wherever her lot may be cast,
and they predict for her a life of large
usefulness.
