Thursday he enticed the little girl to
the barn to help him feed the cattle.
AS soon as she was inside he seized
her and attempted to choke her into
insensibility. He Gid not succeed in
accomplishing his purpose, but she
was badly hurt and for two days her
life was in danger. The news of the
crime did not spread very rapidly out
side of the immediate neighborhood,
which is about Is miles from railroad
and telegraph facilities, but quiet
search was made for the boy. Grad
ually the news leaked out, however,
and a general search was made all
over the county for the criminal by a
number of posses. There was no
chance for him to escape. The de-
scription had been sent all over the
county and in every band were those
who knew the negro by sight. Major
West has been on horseback and in

others have had very little sleep.

edge, the negro boy about Is years
old who attempted to assault Loretta
West, the seven-year-old daughter of
Maj. J. Hillery West, was shot to
death by mob about nine miles from
Summerland tonight at 9 O'Clock.
Etheredge was caught at Wards by
MIR. H. G. Wright, the correspondent
of The State at that place, and was
at once identified by Maj. West, who
was not far off when the capture was
effected. He was placed on Southern
train, No. 134, coming towards Co.
lumbia and at Summerland, just a
a mile below Batesburg, was taksn off
and carried about nine miles. There a
mob of about $50 men met him. The
little negro was placed in the middle
of the road, under tree with a rope
around his neck. He was asked if he
had anything to say and if he was
guilty. He said that he was guilty,
but would give no reason for the at
tempt. After a parley of about Is
minutes, about dozen of the posse
stepped forward and emptied their
guns and pistols into the body. The
negro fell backward literally shot to
pieces while the mob at once di-
spersed, going back to their homes,
tired after their long chase.
STORY OF THE CRIME.
Etheredge had been employed by
Major West for some time. Last
