James r. Langford Murdered.

Hampton, Nov. 30.-Jas. R. Lang
ford was found murdered about one
mile from Brunson, his home, last
night about 9 o'clock by a party OF
friends from Brunson that had been
anxious about his not returning
home. Mr.. Langford left his home
early yesterday morning for his farm
and is supposed to have met his death
about 9 o'clock.
A negro named Williams has been
secreted away to Barnwell or Co
lambia, charged with the crime. Mr..
Langford was a brother of the ex-
treasurer, J. C. Langford, and leaves
J wife and one sister. Funeral ser
vices were conducted this afternoon
at Brunson cemetery by Rev. w. H.
Bowling.

Woman is Hero.


T. Gibson, the wife of one of the
best known citizens of Savannah had
a thrilling experience at $3.50 o'clock
this morning in an effort to give the
alarm of fire when she found the
home of Mr.. T. F. Thomson, neigh
Dor, to be in a blaze. Mrs. Gibson
lives at 11S Bolton street west, and
was in her house alone when she
detected the smell of smoke. Investi-
eating she found the home of Mr..
Thomas, next door, on fire. Greatly
excited and clad only in her night
dress, with the lowest temperature of
the year freezing everything exposed
to the nights cold, Mrs. Gibson, who
is a lady of frail physique, climbed
along small ledge leading from her
home to that of the Thomson's and
after several frantic efforts succeeded
in waking a member of the house
hold. BY that time the fire had gain
ed great headway and the house was
in danger of being destroyed. After
giving the alarm and being drawn
through an open window into the
house which she had probably saved
from destruction by her heroic ac-
ton, Mrs. Gibson collapsed and had
to be carried to a house across the
street and put to bed where she is
still confined suffering from expos
ure and shock.

NEGRO DENIES CRIME.
Claims He Had Nothing to Do With
Murder of Langford.

Murder of Langford.
Richey Williams, a negro charged
with the murder of J. R. Langford in
Hampton county Tuesday and held
for safe keeping at the penitentiary,
stout1y disclaims any knowledge Of
the death of Mr.. Langford. At the
penitentiary yesterday afternoon he
talked freely of himself and the
charges against him. with my hand
raised I tells you boss, that If I'm
guilty of a crime you are" said Will
liams, and he looks and talks as If
he is honest in what he says. When
seen by a reporter for The State he
was in the act of writing letter to
his father.
Richey Williams is negro, sc
years of age, and claims to have been
hard working and honest negro all
his life. He has, he says, been en-
ployed by L. B. Tuten for five years
and before that was in the employ OF
J. H. Hanna at Clifford for II years.
He is turpentine worker,
"scraper.' He says that neither he
nor any one of the IL children his
father has raised has ever been ar
rested or in trouble. He himself pro-
fesses to be member of the African
Episcopal church, South, and prom
inent member and trustee of the ne
gro Odd Fellows lodge with head
quarters in Columbia. The negro lost
his wife year ago and has five small
children about the care of whom he
was writing his father yesterday
afternoon.
Says. He is Innocent.
Of any knowledge of or connection
with the death of J. R. Langford,
Williams earnestly pleads his inno-
cence. He says that on Tuesday
morning he left his home for the tur-
pentine swamps, riding tb the "bars,"
where he turned into the woods, with
another negro, Ed. Rouse. Here he
left Rouse, going into the woods to
get his shoes, which he changed on
going to his turpentine work. This
point is apparently near where the
murder of Langford occurred.
Williams says that he saw the
white woman, Mary Harris, picking
cotton near her house when he left
Rouse and went into the woods.
Shortly after, as he proceeded toward
his work, he saw man wearing a
gray felt hat driving along the Fair
fax road. He was not close enough
to be positive but he thought this
was Mr.. Langford.
Questioned by Relatives.
That night, after the days work
was over, he was at the home Of Jake
Brown, negro, where number OF
negroes had congregated and where
Mary Harris was at the time. Clif
Lengford, a.brother of ]. R.. Lang
ford, and i be Fulk came to the
house, inquiring for J.. R. Langford.
Williams says he spoke up and told
how he thought he had seen J. r.
Langford that morning driving to-
ward Fairfax but they replied that
this was quite impossible.
Williams Is positive that he had
never had any trouble with Mr.. Lang
ford, saying he had had dealings
with him and bought goods from him
but did not owe him cent and had
no object in wishing him dead.
Williams tells his story in a
straightforward manner and one is
impressed with the apparent honesty
in his speech and what seems to be
anxiety to tell the truth.-Columbia

has taken much from the unworthy.
Let this be the benediction of those
