W. L. Willingham Advertises
Reward for Apprehension of
Mysterious Assailant.
MACUN, GA., Aug. 9.—A man giv
ing his name as W. L. Willingham, of
Atlanta, andjgaid to be a well known
< itizen here, has offered a reward of
$7,500 for the apprehension of the per
son w ho struck him, without provoca
tion. on Fourth street near the Union
d/pot in Macon about 11 o’clock on
Wednesday night.
He has inserted an advertisement in
the local papers, and it is signed “W.
L. W." However, he stated at the time
that his name was 'Willingham. When
asked if there was a mistake in the
figures, he declared that $7,500 was cor
rect. and said he would pay that sum in
cash to any one giving him informa
tion sufficient to-convict the person who
hit him. Mr. Willingham stated that
he was struck in the face by another
man whom he did not know, absolute
ly without provocation.
As the result of the advertisement,
the policemen and detectives of Macon
have been earnestly working on the
ease, but all report so far that they
have made no progress. No witnesses
can be found who saw one man strike
another in the locality at the time
named by Mr. Willingham. The affair
has aroused great interest here, and
many besides the officers of the law
are making inquiries about the matter
in the hope of earning the exceedingly
liberal reward.
For the time the question of “Who
hit Billy Patterson?” fades into insig
nificance besides the more pertinent
query of “who struck W. L. W.?’”
Efforts to locate a W. L. Willing
ham in Atlanta were unavailing. The
city and telephone directories fail to
show a person of this name. Members
of the Willingham family here dis
claim any knowledge of the Macon af
fair.
