BRooKITAvEN, MISS, February 10.
Ell Pigot, the negro who criminally
assaulted Miss Williams, a young wo-
man, near here several weeks ago,
was taken from the custody of the
Jackson military company and posse
of deputies to-day and hanged from a
telegraph pole within less than hun
dred yards or the courthouse.
He was to have been tried for his
crime to-day. The military company
and the police were overpowered by a
mob of more than 1000 citizens. Sew
eral shots were fired during the melee
and two men OF the mob were
wounded.
Fight with troops.
Pigot reached Jackson from Brook
haven this morning in custody Of
Sheriff Frank Greer, and under the
armed escort of the Capital Light
Guards, ordered in service by Governor
Noel to protect the negro during the
trial. When the soldiers and the negro
aiighted from the train the mob surged
around them and a fierce fight ensued
in which fists were freely used.
The soldiers dubbed the members
of the mob with their guns. After the
fight had lasted five minutes the milf
tia started with the prisoner to the
courthouse. The mob. reinforced and
reorganized, made another attack, Sc
cured the prisoner. dragged him to a
telephone pole, and hanged him.
The mob began to assemble here be-
and walking. 1t included some Of the
most prominent farmers in Lincoln
county. especially in the ne!ghborhood
Of Ruth. where the assault is alleged
to have occurred. BY the time the
train from Jackson had arrived there
were over 2,000 men in the mob at the
railroad station. aa attempt at con-
cealment was lua1e. not : man in the
ROB wearing a mask.
Did Not Mind Shots.
The first attempt to take the negro
from the militia proved futile the
soldiers beating the members of the
mob back with the butts of their rifles
and taking up the march to the court
house.
Before the courthouse was reached,
however, the growing mob surrounded
the soldiers and swept down upon
them. The command was given 70
fire by the captain of the company, and
Two lnen QIOppeu,s DlC Tue SOluleTSs were
swept from their feet and the negro
was dragged away from them.
Judge Wilkinson, who was to hav.
presided at the negro's trial, witnessed
the lynching, but was powerless TO
prevent it,
