HAZEL IS BEING GOOD

That something is wrong to the point of rottenne e IN

ments only four felony cases were tried by jury and IN eacn
instance defendants were promptly found not guilty. one OF
these defendants was tried for murder. In In another 1nonS1ar laoter
A third was charged with assault with intent to kill and q
fourth with possession of gambling devices. All went Tree
and juries didn't waste much time, either.
Six other cases, mostly indictments against booueggers,
were continued until the next court term. Eight cases ,..1e

likelihood they will ever be resurrected, and twenty-five cases

open court hearings.
Seven defendants pleaded guilty and got by with SEN

T%ylertown, Mississippi
Nov. 20. 1916.
Miss Hazel Brannon,
Lexington, Miss.
I want to congratulate you on
your stand that you are taking
through your papers against lawless-
ness in your county. Also the stand
you took in the court and that you
appealed your cas- to the higher
courts.
Right will prevail both here and
hereafter. 1t may take a hard and
long battle but you will win. Then
you can safely say that the best
people are with you and God is on
your side and you will win.
Blessings upon you and YOU
splendid work.
Truly and in Christ,

SSN
Judge S. F. Davis,
Durant, Miss.
Dear Sir:
It was great reading judge where
you took verbal pokes at Miss Hazel
Brannon and sentenced her to Jail
because she was trying to develop
a better community .
These reformers should 60 to jail
and I believe you are the man with
the courage to do it. The idea OF
trying to make Holmes county a
decent place in which to live is a
most monstrous sarcasm. And as you
say futile"
1t was foresight too, not to put
her in Jail this time but to put the
fear Of the Lord in her heart and
threaten her, so if she ever tried
to carry out her old line of thought
and develop a cleaner situation in
her community, that you would put
her in Jail without a trial. Just like
the immolation of Constance De-
Beverly or some of the New Deal
rulings from which there is no ap-
peal. Just slap them in the Jail
, house.
That was a clever retort too where
you told Miss Brannon to 60 clean
her self. Such remarks as that make
the people respect the court
1t is an odd thing though, Miss
Brannon has fooled the Press Asso-
citation Of Mississippi, with which
she has been associated for a decade
or more. They all felt that she was a
very high class kind Of person but
nov that you have thrown on her
the glare Of publicity In such a
pitiless manner ! am sure she will
be without friends in the organ
ization
Complimenting you for your
courage and for the Southern cul-
ture that you have exhibited,
am yours truly,
TOM L GIBSON.

As Others See Us

Citizens of Holmes couny may be
interested in the following account
which appeared in the November
4th issue of Newsweek. under the
heading; RACIAL: Triol and
Error."
Floating face down in the sluggish
waters Of a bayou, the body Of a
small, 35-year-old negro was found
one day last year near Lexington,
Miss. His name was Leon McAtee,
and he had not died by drowning.
The evidence was that his body had
been thrown into the water from a
car.
He had been working on the farm
| of Jeff Dodd. Questioned, the thin
faced, 57-year-old-farmer had a lot
to say about McAtee. Two days be-
fore a saddle had disappeared from
Dodd's barn. He never thought
twice. He knew McAtee had done
time in the State penitentiary for
stealing, He took him right into
town and turned him over to the
sheriff.
Still pretty mad, he'd got to talk
il with some of the boys. A hill
country farm like his took a lot of
hard working for the $76. he put
out for the saddle. A couple Of boys
pricked up their ears. Stole a saddle
huh? Done time? They had had
| saddles stolen too. How about ge*
ting that niger out of Jail and ask
ing him a few questions?
Dodd went back to jail and fixed
it up with the sheriff. Dodd with
drew the chargA paid the court
| costs, and the sheriff discharged
McAtee in Dodd's custody. The men
took McAtee out of town and asked
him a few questions.
Last week jeff Dead and his son,
Jeff Dodd, Jr., Dixie Roberts of
Greenwood and his nephew James
Roberts, and Spencer Ellis faced a
Holmes county jury. Sure, they had
whipped Leon a little. Dodd ex-
planned: During the questioning
McAtee made a break at me and /
hit him" He said the outher four hit
him a few ticks, I think. but l was
SO excited l don't know" The de-
PENDANTS testified that after the
whipping, the last they saw of Nc
Aztec he was able to jump a fence
and keep running.
But pretty, young Hazel Brannon,
~crussding editor of Lexington's
weekly newspaper, The Lexington
Advertiser, was not satisfied. She
waylaid McAtee's widow, Henri
eta on her way .out of the court
room. Henrietta had been told not
to talk to anyone about the case.
But Miss Brannon got a story: Hen
rietta McAtee, the negro's wife testi-
fled that she saw McAtee that after
noon with the five white defendants.
She said his lips were bruised, his
eyes 'poppish,' and that his hands
were bound with rope. Later, she
said, she saw Ellis's pickup truck
60 by with McAtee doubled up in
the back"
The allwhite jury took only ten
minutes to return a verdict: not
guilty. AS for Hazel Brannon, the
Judge cited her for contempt of
court. And the Ease ended on this
ironic note: McAtee's ~16-year-old
stepson confessed that it was he,
not McAtee, who had stolen the
saddle.

Renrinted from "As / See IT. column by Capt. Tom Ilosoh

Tn Holmes County in Mississippi we have a Judge DAVIS,
Who is a man of much courage. He gave a pretty stn1 jan

record of trying to make the county a cleaner place TO 1--WE
and Judge Davis told her she had better clean ner sell Deioio
she started to clean the county. -. -
He held up the sentence saying that he would hold IL
over her head and that the next time she crowded MN ne
would not have to try her case, all he would have TO 40 was
fo lust slap her in jail without any trial. That SOUNDS ike d
German or a Russian procedure. uu
Miss Brannon has been trying to have certain ungody
situations cleaned up in her community and has been putting

and order met with rebuff from the now famous judge DAVIS.
He says that it is all futile.
Yes il is futile II you don't have the support u Ill
