Don't want intermerriage.
1t is claimed that whole body
avowedly declared themselves against
marriage between Negroes and whites

No appeal to force by Negroes will
be tolerated by these "leaders'. The
idea of passionate appeal to minds

The trouble began where the auto
Of Sheriff of Phillips County was
stopped in front of colored Church
and it is alleged that the sheriff and
his followers made insulting remarks
to church members, whereupon the
colored people fired upon the sheriff,
killing him and one of his deputies.
The whites hearing of this, massed
and armed themselves and marched
TO the colored district to wipe it off
OF the county map. The Negroes
speedily sought ammunition and fired
into the marching "posse", killing and
wounding many.
