A TERBIBLE CRIME
White Woman Murdered and Thrown

Y e-'etday iiftr rnmm iu-r nu e and
partly dec imposed hotly was found in
Flynt river by John Rivers am! Zed
Moore, t.vu white men who were fish
ing.
The men were dragging lor a fish
basket and were horrified when they
pulled up the dead body of a woman
instead of a basket.
Terribly shocked and unstrung, the
two men deserted their boat and fled
to Woolsey to tell the news. They re
turned shortly with a number of re
presentative people, and efforts to
extricate the body was renewed.
After vigorous work for an hour
and a half removing obstacles that ap
peared to prevent the floating of the
corpse, it was brought to the surface.
The face and limbs were swollen Les
yond all natural dimensions, and a
large wound in the right temple show
ed the girl had been murdered—the
weapon used being a pistol. To pre
vent the body from rising, 31 plow
hoes and three axes had been tied
about the dead girl’s neck before her
lifeless form was consigned to the
muddy waters of Flynt river.
The body was identified as that oi
Miss Pearl Knott, and an investigation
into the murder was begun at once.
A dispatch from Fayetteville to the
Cai l this afternoon stated that G. W.
Ktrlin was accused of having commit
ted the crime and had been arrested.
Rumors of a lynching were being cir
culated, and to prevent their being
carried out, Kerlin was sent to Atlanta
this afternoon for safe keeping.
The murdered girl ha* relatives
living near thia city, and was con
nected with some of the most promi
nent people of Middle Georgia.

.Major James M. Pollard, whoso death
in Washington was recently announced,
had been for some years employed in the
