FLOGGING OF YOUTHS
Brings HOT PROTEST
Cherydale Residents Hold Indignation
Meeting Over Court Action.

A mass meeting of citizens Of the
Cherrydale community was held last
night to protest the hogging Of two boys
for petty thieying.
The two boys, George Deeters, aged h
white, and Sam Brooks, aged 16, colored,
took some worthless sail cloth from an
abandoned house on the river. They were
brought before Trial Justice Cloth on
January . and sentenced to fifteen lashes
each, under an old statute. This old
statue applies only to persons over ls
years old. 1t is said.
The beatings were administered at the
courthouse at Fort Myer Heights the
same day as the hearing by Special Of
fcer Smoot. and were the first since the
civil war.
The foggings caused so much indigna-
ton through Alexandria County that q
protest meeting was held at Clarendon
a week ago, and some OF the most prom
inent citizens OF the county spoke.
The people OF the county are still at
a fever heat over the affair and a large
crowd met at Patterson's Hall last night
in Cherrydale and listened to speeches
by Crandal Mackey, c. Samuel Warner,
and others.
1t is unlikely that there wifi be any
more boys publicly flogged in the county.
