BY ASSASSDNS
Labor Agent Meets Tragic
Death Near Green
Mountain.
WAS ON WAY TO NEWPORT
Bringing Men Here to Work on
the Extension of the Tennessee
& North Carolina Railroad, So
the Story Goes, But This Fact
is Denied.

The following dispatch from Johnson

"Friday morning, near Green Noun
tain, N. c., a station on the G. G. & o.
Ry., Robert McCay, of the McCay
Construction company, was shot and
instantly killed and George and EN-
NETT Young, Yancey county negroes,
were fatally wounded and will die.
"This terrible triple tragedy was
caused by liquor and the perpetrators
are said to have been Parm, Bob and
Zeb Peterson, Bushy mountaineers and
prominent.
McCay had been to Burnsville after
negroes TO work on the Tennessee and
North Carolina railway, which is
being constructed from Newport. He
had secured nine and was just at the
river crossing in Yancey county, when
the Peterson boys stepped from be-
hind barn and ordered the occupants
of the hack to throw up their hands.
This was done and while their hands
were in the air the assassins opend fire.
McCay tumbled to the ground bulle I
having penetrated his eye and another
his heart. He died before speaking.
The Young negroes were fatally wound
ed. Emmett was put on the train and
was brought to the Erwin hospital.
Arrangements are being made to take
George back to huntsville. Physicians
state neither can recover.
After the shooting the assassins
made their escape to the mountains,
there being no one present to arrest
them.
