TO HAVE MET DEATH
AT HANDS OF A MONTGOMERY
MOB WHICH PARADED THE
STREETS NIGHT PRIOR
0y Associated Presa

Montgomery, Ala, Oct 7.-Sitting
upright on his hack, but dead from
bullet wound in his heart, John Dell,
a negro hackman Of this city, was dis
covered at o'clock this morning and
conveyed to a funeral establishment.
where his remains were prepared for
burial. His death at the hands of the
mob which last night surrounded the
county Jail and police headquarters
is the only tangible sign of the fury
Of the white men who last night pa.
raded the streets in thirst for blood.
Vengeance on the negro is supposed
to have been wreaked early this morn
ing when the mob, failing in an effort
to lay hands on the negro prisoners
who had been spirited away from DO
lice headquarters in a patrol wagon.
chanced upon the negro in their ram
blings. He was found in a restricted
district. which had led some to the
theory that the negro was probably
killed by a fare who had objected to
payment. Sheriff Horace Hood, how
ever, entertains the opinion that the
negro was killed by scattering rem
nants of the mob. The negro had two
bullet wounds, one in the stomach
and the other through the heart.
