MOB FOR WILBURN
CALLED MYTHICAL
Standardized MCNEIL, Counsel
for Mrs, King, Laughs at Idea
of Possible Violence.

State Senator elect w. d. MCNEIL,
of Macon, counsel for Mrs. James
King, charged jointly with Nick Will
burn with the murder of her hus-
band a wealthy Jones County planter,
said to-day that sentiment in Jones
County was distinctly in favor of his
client and that the acquaintance Of
the imprisoned woman did not believe
her guilty of actual completely in the
killing.
Mr.. Mcneil laughed at the rumors
of a possible lynching when Wilburn,
the good looking young farm hand
who confessed to the Staying, is
brought to trial at Grays before Judge
James B. Parks, the last week in
April.
THE talk of mob violence is rot"
he said. THE people of Jones Coun-
ty resent the stories that have been
coming from there to the effect that
they are planning to take Wilburn
away from the officers when he is
brought from Macon to Grays.
Denies Talk of Violence.
The county is law-abiding and
there never has been any serious talk
or thought Of violence since the first
outbreak Of anger against Wilburn
died down. The residents are per-
fectly willing for the law to take its
course.
"As for Mrs. King, tow hose influ-
