NEGRO FIEND BURNED FOR
MURDER AND ASSAULT

NEW ORLEANS, May %. Eli
Parsons, a negro, was burned at the
stake, near Potts Camp, Miss, early
this morning by mob which took
him from the custody of the officers.
Parsons had confessed to killing
Antoinette Rapypal, by cutting off
her head, after he had assaulted her,
near Potts Camp, three weeks ago.
Parsons was forcibly taken from
the sheriff late yesterday, as he was
being taken from Nashville to Mem
phis.
The enraged mob met the train
and forced the sheriff to turn over
the prisoner to them, leaving BY auto
for the scene of the crime.
When Parsons was being tied to
the tree at which he was burned, he
again confessed his awful crime, tell
ing the mob how he had murdered
and assaulted the girl
The confession of the negro was
in part as follows:
81 killed her by chopping off her
head and then assaulted her dead
body"
The confession of Parsons impli-
Gates two other negroes, whom he
said later assaulted the body. De-
witt Ford, one of those implicated,
has been captured, and is being held
by the mob until the third negro is
found, when the mob plans double
burning.
A virtual holiday has been declar-
ed in Memphis, nearly all the stores
being closed, according to report.
As Parsons was burning TO death.
the mother of his victim cried, "Let
him suffer as he made my little girl
suffer.
1t is estimated that more than 1000
people took part in or witnessed the
lynching of the negro, hundreds of
them being women and girls.
