Hanging Is Averted.

Men who believe it is best to let
the law take it's course out talked
the crowd, which wanted to make
sure that no mistake was being
made. Seeing their advantage the
officers and citizens pleaded for a
stay of execution in order that the
accomplice. if there pc one, might
be brought to justice. The parley-
ing lasted for forty minutes, during
which time officers and citizens were
dispatched to the country to arrest
man. named by the negro, as his
leying the negro seemed the coolest
of them all. Standing in the midst
of crowd eager to take his life. he
asked for the markings" and cody
rolled two cigarettes and smoked
them. He protested his innocence
and insisted that he be given a
chance to prove the same. First he
said some other negroes borrowed
his clothes, but the men who arrest
ed him claim that he told them,
while not admitting that he did the
deed that another fellow was with
him" The search for the accomplice
suificed to let the law take its
course.

Hawkins. County Attorney Tom
Whipple, Sheriff Dearborn, VIII
Hancock, S. P. Spalding and others,
who advised stay OF execution.
Judge Hawkins told the crowd that
it had been his purpose to start
within two hours to Kaufman to
begin district court there on Mon
day, but that he would remain over
here and call special term of dis
trict court, empanel a grand jury
and make diligent inquiry into the
murder of Jack Jones and Joe
Larken's connection with same.
S. p. Spalding urged that there
were others to catch and that to
kill the negro would place a
stumbling block in the way of the
officers of the law. He did not
doubt the guilt of the negro, but he
thought he could be forced to tell
who his accomplices We're.
March to Jail.
When the right time came the
men who had argued long and
forcefully for law and order form
ed Gordon about the accused and
started OH a march to the jail with
several hundred enraged citizens
following at their heels, running
ahead and hurrying toward the
Jail. No stop was made until the
prisoner was safe behind the doors
of the county Jail Then a plea was
made for the crowd to disperse for
reason other than the danger OF the
negro. The men were told that in
the Jail Sheriff Dearborn had sick
son. and any undue excitement
might endanger his HE.
Spirited Negro Away.
Bowling to what seemed to be the
inevitable the crowd dispersed to
gather in smaller knots on the square
to discuss the crime and the probable
outcome. The officers, believing that
a second outbreak was sure to fol-
low decided that the only chance
TO save the negro and let the law
take it's course was to spirit MIN
away, so it was decided to run the
gauntlet of an excited crowd ana

him into obedience. Putting him
on a horse in front Of the Ennis
constable the men started to town
with him, but were met on Main
street about a block from the
square, and rope was thrown
about Hickman and the negro and
both dragged off the horse. With a
moose around the Negroes neck he

phone cable and the order given to

substantial accord with the facts: Up
to 1851 there was but one American
family located there-tlat Of John
Lemmons. He came to Oregon overland
from Cass county, Illinois, in 1915. In
1850 Linus Brooks and family, origin
ally from Ohio, but from Illinois to
Oregon, located a donation land claim
where the town of Brooks now stands,
hence the name, in June, 1851. Early
in 1852 Miss f. Maria Brooks taught
the first school in that neighhcchood
in an old log house which had been ac-
quired by Canadian Frenchman nanp
ed Joseph Laroque, the founder Of
st. Joseph college. Her pupils were
Elizabeth, Leander and John Lennon,
Philopena and Frank Moisan, 4. Selden
and Henry j. Brooks. These two wero
the only American families living at
this point until the arrival of Stanley
Ruggles and family from New York,
who came in 1853, 1t is believed. The
nearest neighbors were those living ON
what was known as the Mission Bottom,
where the fayorably known Alex. NJ.
LaF 'lett now resides, were the famil-
les Of John Durbin (ls45), Hanson
Beers (ls73) and Joseph NJ Garrison
(lSid). The wel.remembercd Method
ist minister, Rev, Alvin F. Waller

Mr.. Brooks in the autumn Of 1851, and
olten he visited this locality. In 1854
Rev. 0. Dickinson of Salem, the minis
ter OF the Salem Congregational church,
preached in this locality aud subse-
quently organized church of his order.
Early in the autumn Of 1855 Joseph G,
Wilson Gan attorney of Salem, and the
first clerk Of the supreme court of Ore.
gon, afterwards Judge Of the district
OF Eastern 0regon, and elected TO con
gress in 1879, bought the Peter Delor

Frenchman. From this date on tho
Canadian Frenchmen and their families
gradually gave way to the Americans,
and they have made this section one Of
