KILLED BY MASKED BAND.
Brutal Staying Of Negro Near Hy-
manvile in Florence County
Magistrate Holds Inquest.

Florence, Jan. 10.-Early Friday
morning band of masked men took
Arthur Davis, a young negro, from
his home in the lower part Of the
county, known as the Hymanville Sec
tion, and after beating him in brutal
fashion, shot him to death. The mag
istrate at Hymanville held an inquest
Saturday and adjourned the hearing
until Tuesday, that more evidence
might be obtained.
The young negro, who bears an 'ex-
ceaent reputation in that section for
honesty and industry! had had dis
agreement with certain parties short
ly before, and it is thought that the
brutal crime was the work Of the
other parties to the contention. The
suspected parties are white men hv-
ing in the lower part Of this county.
: The negro, it seems, was taken from
Gis house Friday morning, dragged
into the woods nearby and brutally
beaten, then shot. The lashes were
laid on with switches, taken from
bushes studded with thorns.
The magistrate has not yet ordered
any arrests, but developments are ex-
pected when the inquest is concluded
on Tuesday with the appearance of
other witnesses.
The people Of this county are great
ly incensed at the crime.
