a reign of terror which prevailed
here after almost a score of flog-
ging cases were reported.
County officials said the brothers
were identified by two men who were
in a store operated by Perry when
it was invaded by masked men. They
told the police they demonstrated
with the alleged kidnapers and were
subdued. Perry, the police said, was
undecided as to the identity Of the
Hudsons.

The vote stands:

away from The polls.
In the first primary 247 sos votes
