MOBBATTERSDDWNJAIL OODR Al CUMMING AND HANGS GIRL’S ASSAILANT Crowd Fakes Rob Edwards, Who Con fessed Complicity in the Brutal Slay ing of Planter’s Daughter Sunday, From Jail and Lynch Him in Street. (TMMkNG, GA., Sept. IO. —Gathering in the public square this afternoon, a mob of more than a thousand men. unmasked and un afraid of written law. stormed the Forsyth county jail, battered down the doors a.nl;i took from his cell Bob Edwards, a negro implicated in :hr sl'miug o's a young white girl last Sunday, and hanged him to a irieph<’UU > pdlt before the court house door. His body swings there to this hwyr, ridtlied with bullets, dangling in the wind as a warning to irigbicTied negroes, who are hurrying from the town. WbeiT'the 'jiioh had done its work it dispersed. The feeling which had sprung up with the as s.:silt by‘one of six negroes arrest ed last week and burst into flame with th& discovery of, the mur dered girl in the woods yesterday I- iJ . itself. The mob had u;ud Hs one victim of the eight ;'ci-. .-,od. 11 was satisfied. Th. monos Forsyth county, the hill • >.:ntry of north Georgia, had been fathering all day in the little town. - nt- bea ing rifles and shotguns under the - arm-, otners with coats bulging suspiciously where a heavy revolver r"t ri a hip pocket. They were silent • . - most part, but they gathered in little knots at the corners of the S'-i'U' and waited. The six negroes hi for lasi week's crime had been -icked 'n the Marietta jail beyond .■each of lynch law; the confessed s .'..vw of the young girl had been spir d away from his home to Gainesville and then rushed to the Tower in At- ■ nta. But the mountain men were de- mined ;to have their victim, and found him this afternoon. Taken Fro n Officers cn.l Locked in Jail. I ,;n shortly after noon that word u. to the torn that a negro had ii tn caught near the scene of the girl's murder and that he bad confessed to being an accomplice of Ernest Cox. the I'-yo in the Atlanta tower. The sher ' nmi his posse .fearful of trouble, - 1 immediately and took the negro cantors. Cringing in fear of n - and begging piteously to be ' th accomplice in the crime was I ! ’rj. :i into Cumming and locked in ■ •-i' th', re. But the Forsyth county mek-up was never built to withstand •ui-h a throng of mtn as that which attacked it this afternoon. Those nmuntaim-ers. infuriated as they were, would have lorn the baslile itself. Hardly had the negro been placed in his cell than the news spread over the town and countryside. The crowd "huh already filled the square grew nti! it covered th? little streets lead ing into the town. The country roads ' ire dotted with mounted and armed cm. all hurrying toward the county ■t. It seemed as though some whe lms telegraphy had spread the news •f the negro’s capture. The sheriff had left the jail as soon a he had lodged his prisoner there and Denuty M G. Lummus was left in charge. He stood his ground bravely against the assault and was warned t" get back and save himself. He locked i'ne doors of the jail and put the heavy bars In place, but the mob tame on. No Attempt to Conceal Men or Motive. The men who made up this mob threw off all attempt at concealment of their purpose. Farmers known to all the countryside were in front of the band which advanced on the jail in broad daylight, without a mask, without the slightest fear of what the future might bring. The barred doors halted the leaders for a moment, but they sent to a blacksmith shop near by for sledgehammers. The door gave way under a few' blows and the lead ers rushed in. followed by as many men as could crowd into the corridors. 'hit into th*' sunshine came the b'giw. ashen gray in his terror, his p -es rolling in abject feat. H» mut ter'd prayers and supplications to the mob ) 1|: . was dragged from the en ’ ’’'< ni. of the jail, but these were soon ' -owned in the rain of blows which ft-il upon him. A rope was brought from a nearby store and a noose drop ped around the negro’s neck. The mob was fighting for a chance to get at its victim, and only the certainty of wounding or killing a friend kept the drawn pistols silent. The mountain men were in a frenzy of rage. Negro Dragged at End of Rope. Across the street and up to the pub lic square hurried the mob. its victim at the fore. The negro had lost his feet by this time and was being dragged by the rope, his body bumping over the stones At the corner of the square a telephone post and its cross arm offered a convenient gallows The ' end of the rope was tossed over the arm, a dozen hands grasped It and the negro, perhaps already dead, was drawn high into the air. Pistols and rifles cracked and the corpse was man gled into something hardly resembling a human form Then the mob, its blood thirst satisfied at last, scattered into a thousand fragments, and the men which made it up went back to their work.

Parole at Last in Sight For Convict 31 Years I As Slayer of Woman Governor Joseph M. Brown has prac tically determined to parole James Jol ly. a white man convicted of the murder of a woman in DeKalb county more than 31 years ago, and who has served the state as a convict ever since in a most exemplary manner. Jolly was sent up for life for murder ing Victoria Norris, under most pecu liar circumstances, and his petition for clemency has been passed upon ad versely by no le-s than six governors preceding Brown, and once by Brown himself. The governor today made up his mind to parole Jolly, if it can be done with an understanding that the parole is not to be used as a stepping stone to a pardon The present governor will not pardon Jolly. Jolly is now over 62 years of age He began his term of service tn April, ISBI. four years after the crime for which he was sent up was committed. The murder took place in 1877 so long ago that there are now no rec- 1 ords of It to be found. According to a statement filed with I the governor by Jolly, he was con- i victed of killing the woman, purely on circumstantial evidence. She was found dead In a wagon. When last seen alive ‘ by witnesses, she was riding toward town in that wagon with Jolly. Jolly says he never killed the woman, i but that he did insult her. and she. in resenting the insult, became excited and ' fell from the wagon, breaking her neck ; Candler Urges Raise In City Tax Levy to Aid Atlanta Schools i 1 ; Replying to the appeal of the schools : department for more money than is provided in the budget. John S. Cand ler. acting mayor, declared today that the tax rate of Atlanta should be in- . creased from 1.25 per cent to 1.50 pet ! cent. "Every department in the city is suf : sering from a lack of money," he said. ' "With our present income, we can not , do what is expected to be done and i what ought to be done. “The more I study the workings of our system, with its many boards, the nearer I am convinced that one board •should supervise all the city depart ments," continued Aiderman Candler. "Without meaning any reflection on the members of the boards, the situation is simply that any one board does not see further than its department." ’ A committee of the school board re ported to the mayor today that a num- 1 ber of new teachers were needed im mediately. Though no appropriation ' has been made for the salaries of addi ’ tional teachers. Aiderman Candler ad vised that the teachers be hired. Official figures at the office of the su- ■ perintendent of schools show the first ■ day’s attendance to have been 30,337, : exclusive of the Glenn Street white school, the Virginia Avenue negro ■ school and the four night schools. Ac cording to Superintendent W. M. Sla- i ton, the opening attendance means 23,- 000 pupils for Atlanta schools for the year of 1912-1913. 15 Men Indicted for Bartering Votes by Morgan Grand Jury MADISON. GA..

ATLANTA, GA„ TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 10, 1912. AIDSBROTHER WHO KILLED FORSLUR ON WIFE Dr. A. Lee Curtis Goes to Mis sissippi Town to Help His Relative at Trial. Dr. A. l.ee Curtis, proprietor of sev eral drug stores, and a former council man. left today for Jackson. Miss., to aid his brother. W. H Curtis, who is hold in jail there for killing J. H. Hel ton last Sunday. Young Curtis shot Helton dead with an automatic pistol, and then surrendered to the police. The killing was the aftermath of a fight be tween the two men. and the trouble grew out of alleged remarks by Helton reflecting on' Curtis’ wife. W, H Curtis was well known in At-, lanta. where he lived until a few years ago. Two brothers reside here—A. L. and H. C. Curtis—both druggists. For two years W, H. Curtis has been living in Jackson Dispatches from Jackson say that Helton was sitting in the office of Dr. A. S. Applewhite when Curtis came in The doctor heard Helton make an ex clamation. and turned to see him facing the door, with a pis,ol in ms hand. Then a shot was heard, but lyy this time the physician had taken to his heels. Turning back at the foot of the stairs, he saw Curtis coming dow, with a revolver In his hand. Helton Is Struck By Six Bullets. The place was soon filled with men drawn by the shots, and it was found that Helton had been struck by six bul lets. Curtis had used a rapid-fire au tomatic pistol, and had emptied it into Helton s body. The slayer went to the police station and gave himself up aft er the tragedy. Curtis will enter a plea of self-de fense it is reported, but he steadily has refused to discuss the ease with news paper men or officials. Hfs relatives say that when he entered the physi cian’s office, he saw Helton draw his pistol, and fired first. The dispatches state that the shoot ing followed an encounter of several weeks ago, when Helton was badly beaten by Curtis and L. V. Sykes, the father of Mrs. Curtis. It was asserted then that Helton had made remarks reflecting on Mrs. Curtis’ character Some time previous Helton had sued Curtis and Sykes for 310,000 damages, alleging defamation of character, and it is alleged that he wrote Mrs. Curtis a letter agreeing to withdraw the suit, provided she would meet him for an Interview It is alleged that she gave this letter to her husband, and the beat ing followed Mrs Curtis and her father have vis ited Curtis in jail, and their meetings were affectionate, but all refuse to dis cuss the case further than to say every thing will come out at the trial. Curtis and Sykes are engaged in building and contracting work, while Helton was in the book business. He was a young man. and went to Missis sippi from Kentucky several years ago.
