NEGRO LYNCHED NEAR WYNNE.!
_ !
‘■'■y/' f
Wynne, Nov. 21.—At a late hour
last night a masked mob took Lige j
Wells, colored, from a deputy sheriff I
and banged him to a tree in a secluded i
spot near here. Wells had tried to
cut the throat of Conductor Max j
Campbell of the Iron Mountain F„ail- j
road between Augusta and McCrory i
Tuesday.
The conductor tried to collect fare :
from the negro. A dispute arose and
the negro made a vicious lunge with a
knife at the conductor’s throat. The
blade encountered Conductor Camp
bell’s collar, which saved his life.
The negro was arrested and, upon ex
amination, was ordered here to await
the action of the grand jury. Owing
to repairs being made on the Wood- j
ruff county jail, it was decided to take i
wens iu_rorresi umy ror saieKeeping.
Deputy Sheriff Patterson started to
Forrest City with the prisoner. Pat
terson and his prisoner boarded the
local freight at this place just after
dark, and before the officer was aware
that lynchers were aboard eight or
| tea masked men sprang into the ca
| boose and he was disarmed. The ne
gro was hustled away, and two hours
later his body was found hanging to a
tree half a mile from Wynne. The
crowd had dispersed when the dis
covery was made, and there was no
trace of the masked men and no clew
left for the sheriff to follow.
