WHITE MAN BEATS
NEGRO TO DEATH;
S JOB

Memphis, Aug. % amp With
evidence developed, indicating that
Roger Richardson, Shelby County
Penal Farm inmate, died last week
from a beating at the hands of a
guard rather than the heat az was
alleged by prison officials, Chief
of Police Oliver Perry assigned 2
deputy sheriffs to investigate the
case. The dismissal of a gang
foreman, P. O. Morrow, and a
guard, L. G. Wilson, followed
closely Richardson's death. This
action, according to County Com
missioner O.. Ellis, was taken not
because of Richardson's death,
however, but because the circum-
stances were incorrectly reported.
The action of Chief Perry i'm
scheduling two deputies to the case
came after a prisoner wrote him,
declaring Richardson's death to be
the direct result of a beating by
a guard, who is said to have
struck him three times after he,
apparently overcome by the heat,
had fallen to the floor.
County Commissioner Ellis, in
reporting the case, said that Rich
ardson refused to return to work
Wednesday morning after a rest
| neiod, and appeared dazed by the
heat. Wilson ordered him back
to work and a scuffle followed,
bringing to the scene another
guard, Coleman, who slapped Ric-
harrison down. 1t was then that
Wilson allegedly struck the pris-
oner several times. Removed to
the Penal Farm from Cap'eville
where the gang was working,
Richardson died almost immediate
ly. He was working out a S25
fine for drunkenness
