NO one who knows the facts

a Negro church deacon and calling

The men said they were detain-
ed about two hours, quilted and

William I. Taylor and Morton
Rellis accused Fayette County

them to "get out Of town."

at all and practically all of what
they say is untrue"
II did tell them they were put
ting themselves in a position to get
shot, but meant by the Negroes"
Myers said. "And l didn't tell
them to get out of town."
The Memphis Press Scimitar
quoted Judge Howard M. Rhea of
Somerville as advising Myers to

they "get out of town and don't
come back" Rhea was quoted as
saying Myers was "just trying to
keep peace among the white and
Negroes"
