MURDER N HARRISON
BURG MONDAY
|. Marshall Lee Killed By
Negro-Shot Four Times

Harrisonburg, Va, July 5.-Harris.
onburg's Fourth of July celebration
had tragic ending yesterday, when
James Marshall Lee, GO years old,
manager of CARRIER and Willis feed
stables, was shot and almost instantly
killed by Pink Barber, % years old
negro from Harriston. Augusta
county, who was spending the holt
day in town. Following the shoot
ing intense excitement prevailed.
Hundreds of persons focked to the
jail openly avowing their intention Of
lynching the prisoner. Sheriff Car
ickhof held the mob at bay andHater,
as the crowd increased and violence
seemed imminent, Judge Haas twice
addressed the surging mob urging
them to calm themselves and let the
law take its course. In the mean
while Sheriff Carickoff was quietly
swearing in deputies and special Off
GERS and with the Jail turned into a
veritable arsenal, he was fully pre-
pared to repel an attack on the Jail.
No attack, however, was made. AS a
further precaution the saloons of the
town we're ordered to be closed for
the rest of the day.
Shortly after the shooting, which
occurred few minutes after 3
O'Clock, Coroner Biedler, assisted by
DR.. Firebaugh, summoned a jury to
investigate the cause of the tragedy.
The inquest was held in CARRIER and
Willis office, a few feet from the
scene Of the shooting. According to
the testimony Of the sevearl witnesses
examined, the negro Barber had been
around the stable apparently trying
to steal whip and had actually tax
en- the whip, when Mr.. Lee interfered
and ordered the negro to leave the
stables. 1t was at this juncture that
Barber whipped out 38-calibre pis-
toll and fired four times at Lee,.
The fourth ball entered Lees side,
passing through the heart, stomach
and liver and caused almost instant
death. The injured man threw his
hand to his side, saying that he was
shot and asking bystander to oatch
the negro. Lee was dead in few
minutes
After firing the shots, Barber took
flight, running directly across the
street, where he was caught by
Charles A. johnson. a young man
from STANTON, who held him
fast until two officers took him in
CT lrge and hurried him to Jail, where
IL was placed behind the bars; none
too soon.
