The artists are represented by
more than 80 works. evenly dl-

private collectors and dealers. An
admirable illustrated catalogue is

There are striking differences

Feininger is an American (borr
in New York City where he now

spent most of his life in Germany
and elsewhere in Europe.
Thomas Hess in his contribu-
ton to the catalogue says neither
Villon nor Feininger could be
called an inventor, nor even a
great innovator of style, but both
found means to express their
personal vision and philosophy in
the idiom that had been brought
SO brilliantly into existence"
The exhibitions are RETROSPECT

Paris in 1911. During the three
years before he was mobhized ir
World War I. Villon worked out
the style which is characteristic oil
his painting today. On the basis

Mr.. Beard said that the hos

Of 100000. Funds were raised

BERRY & GARDNER One OF
STATES OLDEST UNDERTAKING
FIRMS NAMED In $50, 900 SUIT
WOMAN CHARGES FIRM FAILED
TO BURY BODY OF INFANT son
HINT MEDICAL INSTITUTION GOT
BODY FOR DISSECTION AND STUDY

MERIDIAN, Mis-, March n
The Undertaking firm of Berry
and Gardner, one of the oldest
Negro-owned businesses of its
kind in the state has been named
as defendants in q $4,000 Civil
Suit filed here a few days ago.
The suit was filed by woman,
Mrs. Georgia A. Mitchell, who
charges that the undertaking firm
did not bury the body of an infant
son whose body was turned over
to the establishment for burial
following it's death in a local hos
pital.
The declaration filed by the
woman states that the child was
born with six fingers on each
hand, and with a hair-lip; the
declaration alleging that the body
was suitable for dissection and
study by Medical Institutions.
The declaration also states that
the mother, after leaving the hos
pital went to the cemetery where
the infants remains were to be
buried but could not find the
grave or any identifying marks.
After being unable to find the
grave she charges that she Wis
tied the establishment and that
its management told her that they
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1950-03-18

had no record either of the fun
eral service or the burial of the
body.
Three months after visiting the
company's office, on Sept. 24i
last, the mother states that she
was taken to the cemetery and
pointed out the grave with mark
er bearing the name of her son,
Clifton Mcdonald Nickel.
The declaration thereafter al
leges that "said child was not bur-
led where marker was located but
that it according to the declara-
ton the woman gave birth to the
child in St. Joseph Hospital on
June "a, 1919.
The infant expired one day later
the declaration states, and the
mother employed the firm Of
Berry and Gardner to complete its
burial.
The declaration further states
that no relatives or witness were
allowed to attend the funeral SER
vice nor the burial ceremony in a
local cemetery, containing the
body of different person.
The case has become the SUBJ
ject of widespread comment and
much speculation in both state
and local business circles.

LEADER I'M FIRST LYNCHING
OF 1850 CONVICTED; GETS
20 YEARS CRC REPORTS
partial Victory Proves Guilty
Can Be Punished When Negro
Progressive White Unite" Gro Says

RICHMOND, VA. - The leader
of the mob which axed Samuel
Taylor, 38-year-old Negro farmer,
to death near Ballsville, last New
Years Eve in the first lynching
of 1850 has been convicted of sec
ond degree murder and given 20
years, the Civil Rights Congress
reports.
Observers at the trial called the
verdict "a partial victory which
proves that the guilty in lynching,
frame-ups and cases of police bru-
tally definitely can be punished
when Negro and progressive white
Americans unite to demand it."
Hundreds of members of the
Negro community in and around
Ballsville, jampacked the Powhat-
tan Court House for the two-day
trial, the observers reported. Many
stood in the courtroom from early
morning until late evening. A large
number did not leave their stand
ing spots for lunch on either day,
so that "they could. demonstrate
their demand that Taylor's lynchers
be punished to the full extent of
the law" the observers reported.
Although there was preponder-
ance of evidence that the lynch
mob leader, Frank Clayton, pre-
mediatedly and in cold blood muir
dered Samuel Taylor, the jury did
not return a verdict of murder in
the first degree as requested by
Commonwealth Attorney w. r.
Blanford.
One of the reasons for this fail
ure, CRC's observers stated, was
the constant Negro-baiting by De-
Tense Attorney Flanagan who
tried to discredit the character of
the prosecutions chief witness,
Bernard Hague and Mrs. Annie
Morris, both white. They were
visiting Allen Logon, Taylor's
Negro neighbor, on the day of the
lynching. On occasion after oc-
casion, he said that mo self-re-
speeding" white people would visit
Negro homes.
Flanagan also attempted to
intimidate the two Negro jurors
by declaring that he had a right
to strike them off the jury, but
that he knew they were going to
''do the right thing"
When the jury brought in it's de-
cision on the evening of March 1,
