MOB VICTIMS WERE SUICIDES
This Is Verdict at Inquest of Two Ne
groes Hanged.

Marion, Ark.-A mob of twenty men
lynched Bob Austin and Charley Rich
ardson, negroes, Friday morning, after
they had wrung from them, by admins
tering the third degree, that they were
implicated in the Jail delivery in which
thirteen prisoners made their escape
Austin had never been locked up, al
though he was under suspicion. AS soon
as Richardson partly confessed that Aus
tin had something to do with slipping
saws to the prisoners for them to saw
the Jail window bars away, part of the
mob went to his house and dragged him
to the court house yard, where he was
confronted by Richardson Both told a
different story. Men secured barrel,
bent the negroes over it and whipped
them with heavy leather straps.
At midnight all was quiet, but after
armed men had gone through the streets,
notifying every negro to go home and
stay there, it formed again.
By prearranged plan twenty masked
men met near the Jail, overpowered a
deputy placed there by Sheriff Lewis,
secured the keys to the Jail, dragged
Austin and Richardson into the yard and
hung them to limb of tree directly
opposite the entrance to the court house.
Not shot was fired
The bodies were left hanging until 8
o'clock Friday morning, when they were
cut down and dragged through the yard
like dogs to the court house, where an
inquest was held and decision reached
that "the men came to their death by
suicide"
