REELFOOT LAKE. NIGHT RIDING
LYNCE1ERS GO TO TRIAL AGAIN
SIX MEN ONCE SENTENCED TO
HANG IN TENNESSEE, NOW
PRAYING FOR THEIR LIVES
FIGHT FOR OWNERSHIP
OF LAKE.
BY J. NJ. Ross.

by %. WI. nOSS.
UNION CITY, Tenn, Nov. 49,
Six men, under sentence to be
hanged, were carrying shotguns
over their shoulders one night a
little over year ago. They were
night riders, and as they walked
to their lair at Reelfoot lake, near
here, they were hidden by long
black robes. Ghostly black masks,
drawn tightly over their faces,
topped off this disguise of death.
The lynching of Capt. Quentin
Rankin, and the wonderful escape
from a similar fate by Col. r. q.
Taylor, that followed, were the
thrilling events of that night.
These six men are praying now.
So are their mothers, wives and
Ichildren.
Already armed mountaineers
and the Cracker" farmers and
fishermen who live near here are
coming to Union City for the re-
trial of the murder case next week.
This retrial was granted by the
court of appeals on a petition for
a writ of error:
The men are:
Carrot Johnson.
Samuel Applethwaite.
Boyd Ransom.
It'd Burton.
Arthur Cloar.
Fred Pincon.
Capt. Rankin was chief attorney
for the West Tennessee Land Co.,

REDDING, Cal, Nov. 10
Charles Hartman, a miner, who
was thought to have been killed
in a cavern in a mine near Shasta
yesterday, was rescued late last
night, and today is recovering
from the injuries he sustained
when hundreds of tons of rock
and gravel fell from above and

The huge mass of earth fell
with slight warning. A few small
stones fell first and struck him,
inlLring him slightly. The warn
ing was sufficient, and Hartman
jumped behind a big timber, an
instant before the earth thunder
ed down upon him.
After several! hours of digging.
miners who were attempting to
recover his body were astounded
to hear Hartman cry out for help,
and when The shaft was partially
cleared Hartman crawled out of

which owned the lake. With Col.
Taylor he was there arranging
leases of farm land and fishing
grounds which the jewellers in the
vicinity resisted. Then came the
lynching and Taylor's flight amid
a rain of buckshot.
At the trial it was shown that
the fishermen and farmers affect
ed most by the company's rules
had little to do with the lynching
as a class. There were a few of
them concerned in it, but most of
the party was made up of shift
less young fellows of the country
side. Finally It'd Burton con-
fessed.
He had hoped to save his life,
but was sentenced to be hanged.
He told how the riders had heard
that Rankin and Taylor were to
be at the hotel, and how the gang
was formed; of the night ride
through the woods, and how Col.
Taylor begged for the life of Capt.
Rankin when ropes were about
their necks under the trees. He
told how after Taylor had run and
Rankin was dead, the order had
been given that every man must
disperse and burn his garb. But
even then the spirit of the place
was upon them, and they were
frightened.
Many of the men tore the hid
eous night rider masks from their
bodies and threw them upon the
ground. There they were found
next morning.
Then came Frank Fehringer,
who also turned states evidence
and gave as many details as Bur.
ton did. He went further, how
ever, and told of the terrible oath
taken by the night rider clan
how they knelt while the chief of
the order made them swear on the
blood of themselves and their fam
lilies to answer when the call of
the clan came.
Fehringer is now in Jail at
Nashville, awaiting the pleasure of
the court.
