after a mistrial had been ordered and
the jurors dismissed from further serv-
ice, citizens of Hamilton pointed out that
the jury was composed of the best men
of the county and men who could not
be influenced either for the soldiers or
for the state. except by the weight OF
the evidence.
Little stories which came from the jury
room during the time the jury was at
tempting to reach an agreement told of
the honest desire of the u men to reach
verdict. OF course, the most inter-
esting story was about the one juror
VINO did not vote throughout the 30
hours the jury deliberated. This juror
frankly told his associates when the
judge turned the case over to them that
he had not been convinced either of the
guilt or innocence of Lancaster as
result of the evidence. Every time a
vote was taken he withheld his ballot
Other jurors argued with him and
pointed out various features of the trial
and points brought out by the state and
defense, but each time he would not
vote because he had not been convinced.
When the final report was made to Judge
Sowell, the vote was six for conviction.
five for acquittal and one not voting.

NEGRO IS LYNCRED
Mob Breaks Into Jail and Takes
Black Held for Assault
on White Woman
By Associated Press

Ocala, Fla. February IA mob
broke into the county jail here to-
night and seized negro who had
been arrested early in the afternoon
on the charge of assaulting an aged
white woman yesterday and taking
him to the place where the crime was
committed, hanged him.
l The negro had been arrested and
taken to the Jail and the victim of the
attack had been brought there to
identity him. AS the doors were
opened to admit her, the mob surged
forward. overpowered the officers and
seized the negro. He was taken to
the woman's home. and she was
brought there and identified him as
her assailant. The mob then took him
"a little way from the house and
hanged him.
1t is said the negro confessed after
being identified by the woman.
The negro who was lynched was
Elijah Jones, it was learned later. and
lit was said he had just escaped from
the state penitentiary when he com
mitted the crime.

PROPAGANDA, IT'S SAID,
WAS WITHOUT EFFECT

One remark heard throughout the trial
was that the state and defense could
not have agreed on more suitable place
for the trial of the guardsmen. Ma
rion county felt no interest in either side
OF course, there was some sympathy for
the soldiers, but county officials and
citizens insisted that the case should
be decided on the evidence.
OF course, charges were made that a
propaganda had been carried on both by
the state and Defense and Judge Horace
c. Wilkinson, special counsel for the
state, after the trial of Lancaster
charged that citizens of Tuscaloosa had
maintained a propaganda agency for the
dissemination of information favorable
to the defense. Attorneys who returned
from Hamilton and citizens who ap-
peared as witnesses and onlookers claim
that this alleged propaganda had no eff
feet on the citizens.
There was great disappointment that
the jury could not reach verdict, but
