he loved those children so!
THEY HAVE to let him go!
He shouldn't have shot, but they've
got to realize how awful he felt!
He's a good man."
She sighed deeply and twisted
her hands in her lap.
I'm SO lonely without him.
she said. 1T was lonely before
without the children. It's even
worse now. I'll be glad when
he can come back to me"

OOu1 bOtl pidIllGIS even more DIu-
tai than it had been farther north.
BUT though they did not find
the peace and security they sought
on the Delta, they did find some
thing to which they have chung
for many years now-their love.
1t was "a years ago that they
met, fell in love, and married.
Hickman was 20, his petite wife
only II at the time.
AS young newlyweds do, they
dreamed of the children they
would have and of the life Of hap
piness, peace, security, and dig
nifty which would one day be
theirs.
In time, nine children were
born to them.
TT WAS a bad life, on the
cotton FARMS" Mrs, Hickman re-
called. 1--WE wanted our children
to have better life, bigger chan
ces than we'd had. We wanted
them to have an education. We
wanted them to grow up to live
good lives.
But as each child became
five years old. the planter would
come down TO our shack and
tell us that we had TO put ii 10
work in the fields.
"They were only able to go to
school from about a week before
Christmas to the middle of Janu-
ary-a'bout a month And by the
time they were nine, the planter
would tell us that the children
shouldn't go to school anymore
because he needed them in the
fields"
SHE PASSED har hand YEARLY
over her eyes.
"And we hoped to do so much
for them !. They were such good
children. How we loved thean!"
But James Hickman, the strong,
wiry farm laborer, and his pretty
wife were not the sort of people
to give up their fight, and so they
moved from tt \ n to town, always
looking for a better life - two
years at Shelby, three at Rolling
Folk, one at Leland, six at Stone
vile, four at Merigold, one at
Tunica.
And always it seemed as though
that better life were beautiful
mirage. The hard reality was lynch
terror, poverty, and insecurity.
THE WAR came to the swelter-
ing cotton fields of the South as
to the torrid furnaces of Chicago
steel mills. The war came, and
workers were desperately needed
to turn out the weapons in the
war for democracy.
1t was the tough muscled farm
er's chance to fight for democ-
racy too. At SO, he had been re-
jected as leverage" by the draft
board, but he knew that by work
ing in a Northern war factory he
would be fighting in his own way
for democracy abroad = and at
home
So he came to the North, to
Gary, Ind, where he worked in
the steel mills for II weeks.
TRAGEDY struck Doctors told
them that Corona, their 12-year
old daughter, must be placed in
the Lincoln Institute, at Lincoln,
Ill.
She was blind, deaf, and dumb.
Their greatest disappointment
here was the housing shortage,
sharpened to the point of des-
peration by restrictive covenants
which said that Hickman could
do his part in his country's de-

were dislodged and piled on
top of her.
Side, they found, was already UNI
believa'b1y crowded by other war
workers who had found that
Southern Bourbons are not the
only upholders of white supren-
acy."
THEY LIVED-all 10 of them
with relatives in Gary, later with
their daughter, Mrs. Mary Sims,
%, in her home at 9213 Indiana
av.
They moved from rat trap to
rat trap, tenement to tenement,
finder. box to finder box, within
the covenant-walled ghetto of
Chicago.
Finally David Coleman, "a, of
2720 Prairie av., whom they had
known in the South, offered to
rent them four-room, second
floor flat at 1888 Washburne av.
They paid a 500 advance for
two months rent. The apartment
would not be vacant for a month
or so, Coleman said, suggesting
that they live in the attic while
they waited.
THERE was no water, no gas,
no electricity, no toilet facilities.
There were plenty of rats.
They never were given the Sec
ond floor apartment. Coleman
also refused to refund the 500.
When they asked him about it,
he said, according to Mrs. Hick
man:
You'll be sorry. Hickman. I
have men over on the East Side
who'll burn this place down if
I want"
On the night of Jan. Is, while
was at work, flames
burst forth from a mattress Cole
man had left in the attic. Mrs.
Hickman was awakened by the
crackle of the fire.
FRANTIC with fear for her
she hastily awakened
her 19-year old son. AS
the smoke thickened and the
flames reared closer, she tried
to rouse the others. Willis, 81
year old Army veteran, awoke and
urged his mother to flee.
She turned back to save the
four youngest chcildren-Leslie,
IA, Alvana, 9, Sylvester, 7, and
Valvanna, 8. But the smoke was
thick and binding, the flames hot.
She could not find them.
"AlI I heard were two little
cries." she said. and she shiv-
cred at the memory. Just two
little cries. and that's all. I was
blinded by the smoke. couldn't
see them or get TO them."
CHARLES ran down the stairs.
A moment later, a sheet of fire
blocked off that escape. Willis
forced his mother to join him in
breaking through the front win
dows and climbing painfully down
the building, holding on to the
cracks between the bricks by
their finger nails.
Just below the third floor, VIII

Life Of HicEmon
From shorecropper shack
to prison Murderer's Row

lis fell, breaking his collar bone.
AT the second floor level Mrs.
Hickman lost her grip and plunged
down. A bystander h e1p e d to
catch her, breaking the force of
her fall, but she suffered a severe
injury to her left leg.
And then it began. During the
long nights in the hospital, all
she could think of was the fire,
the smoke. those two little cries.
AT THE inquest, neighbor after
neighbor arose to testify to Cole
mans threats of arson. Mrs. Hick-
mans son, Charles, who worked
with his father at the Wisconsin
Steel Works of the International
Harvester Co., told of running in
to a man who was also fleeing
the attic during the fire.
Neighbors also reported that
they had seen him.
And then the fire chief told of
finding a kerosene can in the
charred wreckage of the attic.
The can was of a type never used
in the area.
TESTIMONY. evidence, accusa-
tons, warnings - all aimed at
Coleman as the man believed re-
sponsible for the tragic fire. But
no action was taken against him
by the authorities.
Ten days after the fire-10 days
too late-the Hickmans were fl
nally given the home for which
Willis, as veteran, had applied
for six months earlier. 1t was
five-room dwelling in the Ashburn
Homes project, where Negroes and
white folk live side by side in
peace and brotherhood. 1t was
the "better life" the Hicknans had
sought, but the young ones for
Which they had sought it were
gone.
THE NEXT six months were an
agony of memory, as the sound
Of those two little cries echoed in |
Mrs. Hickman's ears, as the in
Justice ranked within her hus-
band as he thought of Coleman
the streets a free man.
I'VE tried not 10 talk about
the children" Mrs. Hickman
explained: but we couldn't
help talking. That was all we
thought about. Everything was
gone out of our life. We lived
for those children. and they
were dead. We had hoped that
things would be good for them
We couldn't hardly eat.
We'd lie awake at night. To-
gether. thinking and sometimes
talking about them. They were
such good children"
The climax came abruptly on
July 16-six months to the day
after the fire.

MRS. HICKMAN was visiting
her daughter. She got a telephone
call; something was wrong. She
hurried home.
Her husband told her the facts
briefly. He had gone hunting for
Coleman and found him. Coleman
had admitted that he ordered the
building set ablaze. Hickman had
shot him.
Hes a good man" his wife
declared firmly. and her eyes
were misty. Hes a good man
who never would have done
anything like that if they'd done
TO Coleman what they should
have. But has was so desperate.
