NEGRO PAYS FOR
CRIME WITH HIS LIFE
Bill Byrd Hung Today, (Friday) at 23o p. m. Exoner.
ates Lonnie Jackson and Ed Smith in
Death Statement

ing that he felt that his sins had
been fully pardoned. The baptismal
ordinance was administered in his cell
and he seemed much relieved and took
part in the song service.
After the service he made a state.
ment to Sheriff Currie and others who
were present, in which he stated that
he alone was responsible for the death
of Murrell, and that Lonnie Jackson
condemned to hang at later dat'
for completely in the crime, and Ed
Smith serving life term in the penl
Tertiary as another accomplish, were
in no way connected with the murder
This afternoon Byrd was visited by
his two sisters, a young brother, and
two uncles, besides several friends, all
from the neighborhO0d of Homer. The
meeting with his relatives and friends
was a very touching scene. His sisters
and his little brother wept bitterly
as they kissed him through the bars
and tears came to the eyes Of hi
uncles and their voices broke as they
tried to talk. Byrd kept his com
posture telling them not to worry
! about him. His voice broke however
when he told them the hour of his
execution, and made the request tina
they take is body back to Homer and
bury him bedside his mother, and he
turned away to hide his emotion.
An effort was made to have Byrds
and Lonnie Jackson's sentences com
muted to life Imprisonment. Had thi:
been done, it now appears that Jack
son and Smith would both have had
to serve life term in prison, although
innocent.

INCREASED INTEREST SHOWN
IN LOCAL OIL SITUATION

Interest in oil activities in this sec.
ton continues to grow with the pass.
ing Of each day. Leases and royalties
continue to rise in value and many
transfers are being recorded every
d Representatives of New York in.
terests and concerns in other large
centers have been acvtive in buying
leasing and royalties during the PAST
week. and it is becoming difficult to
locate any acreage in certain sections
as it has all been taken.
J. E. Smitherman and associates
have paid as high as $1,000 for a
thirty-secOnd royalty in certain local
tiles, and leases On the outer edge of
the large clock Of acreage now owned
by Smitherman and associate is sell
iny as high as $1,000 per acre. |
Acreage in certain localities is re-
ported to have been leased at $500
while any royalty within the Smith
erman block brings $1,000 and up foA
thee thirty second
Among those who have sold thirty
second royalty on large tracts we
mention Fred w. Pentecost, F. c. Du
Ianey, W. i. White, B. H. Talbot J
r. Austin and a number of others.
Land owner in the edge Of Lincoln
Parish are also realizing good prices
for leases, and a large block con-
siSting Of about 1000 acres has beer
leased by New York interests at $4.OC
an acre.
The rig is being set and will be in
readiness to drill on the Carl Gof'
tract within a few days.
Able biologists who have gone over
the territory southeast Of Arcadia have
pronounced the structures as being the
most promising of any wildcat terri
tory they have ever been over, and all
seem to be agreed that when given
the proper test, this territory will
yield up its liquid wealth. The fac,
that the large companies are backing
up the reports Of their biologists tc,
the extent of investing heavily in
leases and royalties indicates Their
faith in the territory.
