NEGROES CONFESS TO
ARSON AND BURGLARY
SHERIFF OF TURNER COUNTY
CATCHES TWO FUGITIVES
AND BRINGS THEM HERE.

Two negroes, Sam Reese and Will
lie Covington, are in the Terrell coun-
to Jail charged with burglarizing and
burning the store house which was
occupied by J. w. Anderson SIX miles
north of Dawson. The prisoners were
arrested Wednesday morning near
Triton by Sheriff O. B. Jarman. OF
Turner county, and were brought to
Dawson the same day by that ottlcer
and delivered to the authorities here
The capture OF Reese and Covlng-
ton and their subsequent confession IS
due to a negro employed by. the Iur-
ner county officer to assist HIM IN Ter
reting out and capturing law-breakers.
This negro Sleuth upon the appear
ance OF the two strangers Ill Ashburn,
decided they were suspicious charac-
tiers and reported their presence to
Sheriff Jarman, who learned that they
had quietly taken their departure, go
ing in the direction OF Triton, and fol-
lowed them and took them into Gus
tody.
Confessed to Several Burglaries.
Both Reeves and Covington had on
new overalls and when they stated
thew were from Terrell county the
sheriff connected them with the rob
berry and burning of the Anderson
store on April 14th and finally OBJ
tanned a confession from them. They
first denied any knowledge of that
crime, but confessed to having bur
glarized the store of ]. A. Sears in
Dawson on the night of the 18th, and
also to burglarizing a store at Fort
Valley after the crimes here. They
told how they gained entrance into
the Sears store, the articles taken and
other facts connected with the robbery.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1921-04-26

After being brought to Dawson
Wednesday afternoon they were taken
TO the scene of the Anderson fire, and
there told the whole story, from which
if appears the burning OF the building
was more of an accident than inten-
tional. They stated that they procured
an iron crowbar from the wagon shed
of Mr.. 7. S. Jones, who lives about
a hundred wards distant and owned
the building which was burned. With
this they broke the lock on the door
OF the store and, with one OF them
holding a torch made by newspapers,
they were attempting to open the SAFE
with the Crowbar when they were
frightened by some one passing IN an
automobile, which was brought to a
slow speed at the curve IN the road
near the store. Thinking they had been
discovered the burglars, according to
their narrative, dropped the burning
paper on the floor and made nasty
retreat and came to Dawson. The
lighted torch they dropped when they
thought they had been discovered
caused the fire which destroyed the
building and goods and entailed a loss
of $4,000, with insurance OF only
81 600.
Reese is a Terrell county negro,
while Covington claims that his home
is in Worth county. Both of them are
young negroes.
While here Sheriff Jarman said that
his "spotter," who is responsible for the
arrest of the two burglars, seldom
fails to learn from a strange negro
who visits Ashburn his name, where
he lives and his business there. His
work has resulted in the arrest by the
sheriff of many criminals.

DAWSON BAPTISTS WILL
HOLD REVIVAL MEETING
Mr.. Hoffman Will Assist With Sing
ing and Lead Workers Band.

Beginning June 5th the Baptists of
Dawson will hold their annual pro-
tracted meeting, which will last eight
or ten days. Mr.. John D. Hoffman,
of Atlanta, will assist with the singing
and will have charge OF the personal
workers band for the time. Mr.. Hotf-

seasoned in this kind OF work, having
been with the home mission evangelist
ic staff for some time, and prior to
that having been on the evangelistic
staff of the Georgia Baptist mission
board. Prior to that he was promi-
nent singer in the choirs of the larger

For several months there has been
fine spirit of evangelism in the Bap-

it is hoped that many will find Christ
and that all christians will be brought
closer to their Lord.

sued the North Dakota Industrial
commission turned over to the Bank
Of North Dakota $4,000, 900 of state
