I MOB MAY LYNCH
SHERIFF’S SLAYER.
Crosby Kept In Batesville For
Fear Lynching Will Result—
Mob Reported Formed
At Salado.
Batesville, Sept. 16.—An at
tempt was made early this morn
ing to, spirit away Robert Crosby,
who yesterday evening shot and
killed Sheriff Jeff D. Morgan,
while the latter was taking him
to jail as aifugitive from Fulton
county. The plan was to get
Crosby on the morning train and
take him to Newport for safe
keeping. The threatening atti
tude of the citizens compelled
the officers to abandon their ef
forts to take Crosby from the
jail here. It became apparent
that all such attempts will be
resisted and probably result in a
lynching.
The general sentiment evident
ly is that the prisoner must re
main in the jail at Batesville.
Excitement still runs high and
rumors are afloat that a large
mob from Salado, the dead sher
iff’s old home, is coming to lynch
the murderer, and that if the
mob comeslit will be augmented
here.
Sheriff Morgan’s remains were
interred at 4 o’clock this after
noon at the old family grave
yard, six miles from town, under
auspices of the Masons and Odd
Fellows.
MOB FAILS IN EFFORTS.
Several times Friday night a
mob formed about the jail at
Batesville to lynch the prisoner,
but each time the men were per
suaded to desist from their inten
tions by the citizens of Batesville,
who have shown a most com
mendable zeal in upholding the
law.
Acting Sheriff Stewart has
given out a promise that Crosby
will not be taken away, and Mrs.
Morgan, widow of the deceased
sheriff slain in the performance
of his duty by a villainous out
law, has urged upon the friends
of the family that they allow the
law to take its proper course.
Judge Fulkerson has already
called a special session of the
grand jury, and after the neces
sary ten days elapse, as required
by law, the trial of Crosby will
be held and speedy justice ad
ministered.
LETTER TO MR. JOHN
MELLVILLE, NEWPORT, ARK
Dear Sir: A big mill-owner,
Spartansburg, S C, wanted 5,000
gallons of paint, and bought by
price; paid 5 cents less than ours;
got a “lead-and-zinc” paint! but
the lead was sulphate of lead,
not carbonate. Sulphate costs
about half; and covers about
half.
That paint was adulterated
about six times as much as the 5
cents paid for. He “saved” 5
cents; and it cost him 30 cents.
Oh no; it cost him more than
that; we forgot the labor. Can’t
work it out exactly; don’t know
how it’ll wear.
Short-measure besides; that
alone was twice as much as his
“saving” 5 cents.
It was thin, too; some loss
there; don’t know how much.
There was too much dryer in
it. The maker made something
on that; he didn’t.
Taking it altogether, he didn’t
make much by that 5 cents.
Go by the name; and the name
is Devoe lead-and-zinc.
Yours truly
F. W Devoe & Co
