HEMMED BY POSSE,
CUTS HIS THROAT
Alleged Wife Slayer Tries Sui
eide in GreenviIle.
NOW IN JAIL UNDER GUARD
Knife Caused Crowd to-
Threaten LynChing.

Greenville Special to Charleston
News and Courier, Sept. 21.-Nelson
Farmer. the man who, it is alleged,
last night dragged his wife from
church in this city and chopped her
head off with a huge butcher knife,
slit his throat from ear to ear this
afternoon after he had been sur
rounded by posse of city and
county officers, using the same knife
with which he is said to have killed
his wife. The chase after the alleg-
ed wife-slayer lasted through Sunday
night. Farmer was placed in the
county Jail, where he is under heavy
guard.
All during the day a crowd of ne
groes stood around the Jail waiting
for the capture, and there was con-
siderable talk of lynching. When
Farmer was brought to the Jail the
crowd became demonstrative, and
one negro was arrested before it
quieted down. He is charged with
melting riot.
The affair created wild excitement
in the city, as automobile after au-
tomobile was rushed to the edge of
the city loaded down with officers
armed with shotguns. 1t was the
general belief that Farmer would
offer resistance when cornered.
The killing is said to be one of
the most brutal in the history of
Greenville county. 1t is probable
that Farmer will recover from his
self-inflicted wound.
