during the mob excitement four were
captured during the day.
Thousands of persons swarmed
about the Jail to see the wreck caused
by the mol and about the public
square. where the three negroes were
hanged to an electric light tower and
burned. Every train brought hundreds
of persons to the city from surround
ing towns, mostly hoodlums.
Many from the farming regions
caught the mob spirit readily and
shared the sentiment of many that the
negroes should be driven from Spring
field while he feeling against the ne
gro race was strong.
The two negroes were hanged to the
statue of the Goddess of Liberty in the
center of the public square of Spring
field and slowly roasted to death. A
mob of 300 Infatuated men visited
the county Jail and demanded Horace
Duncan and Jim Copeland, who were

The negroes were arrested on suspi-
cion only.
The sheriff's house was raided and
the keys of the Jail taken from him.
Sledge hammers and cold chisels
were used to get admission to the cells.
AS soon as the mob found that the
two negroes had been secured they
started in triumph for the public
square, where the men were strung up.
and slow fires were started beneath
them.
Mabel Edwards came to this city
only Friday afternoon from Monet,

from Jail by the mob that lynched
Duncan and Copeland. Allen was
hanged in the public square to the
same tower that had served as a scat
fold for the two negroes murdered
earlier in the evening.
Allen was calm and collected as he
jumped from the tower up which he
had been compelled TO ascend. The
rope was about his neck as his weight
fell on it, and he dropped into the pyre
containing the charred bodies of his
former companions in prison, Duncan
and Copeland. Allen was taken up the
tower again and compelled to jump.
This time his captors were more sue
cessful in their work.
