Colored Preacher Kills Marshal Of

Every Negro Who Crosses Their

Donaldson, Ca, Aug. 21.--Negroes
are still fleeing from this section Of
Georgia as result of the outbreak
by the whites TO avenge the murder
Of Marshal Newberry of Jakin by
Charles West, a negro preacher. For
three days and nights bands Of white
men have been securing the country,
killing and whipping negroes and
burning their churches, lodgerooms
and schoolhouses, and the enraged
whites seem determined to run every
negro out Of this section. The Off
cials report that only three negroes
have been killed, but we'll informed
persons say that this estimate is too
small by half, as at least six dead
negroes have been counted in the
woods.
Nearly 100 negroes have been whip
ped and at least dozen churches,
lodgerooms and schoolhouses have
been burned. The whites are still
securing the country and terrorizing
the negroes, and West, the negro
preacher who killed Newberry. has
not been captured. The whites say
the negroes are concealing West and
they say that they will drive every
negro out OF this section unless the
slayer Of the marshal Is produced
Much of the bitterness of the white
people is due to the belief that the
death OF Marshal Newberry was de-
creed by negro lodges and that West
was appointed to kill the officer.
