| Arthur Williams, a negro who
! lives near Richland, was lodged in
Jail last week on the charge OF for
gerry and will be held for trial. At
| the same time Williams was arrested
| another negro. Arthur Harrison, was
also arrested and lodged in Jail, but
was later released. No small indig-
nation existed in the Richland com
munity when 1t was learned that
two white ladies had received let
ters or notes from negro men. and
! EFFORTS were soon under way to find
| out the facts concerning the matter.
Investigation led to the belief that
Harrison was innocent Of the charge,
but Williams Is held. IT seems that
there Is ill-feclins among some of
the negroes in the Richland commu-
nifty. and the underwriting is porba-
bly the result Of one or more ondcav-
oring to get others into trouble.
Williams, Of course. stoutly denies
any knowledge Of the matter. but his
writing bears marked similarity to
some Of that in the notes now in the
hands Of those in charge OF the case.
