Cumming Quiet as
Troops Are Enroute
CUMMING, GA„ Oct. 2.— With not
more than 300 out-of-town people here
today, Cumming is unusually quiet, de
spite the fact that a battalion of mili
tia is en route here with the six ne

ble is anticipated when the soldiers
and prisoners arrive late this afternoon
nor when the negroes are arraigned
for trial tomorrow morning.
The crowd in town today is much
smaller than on yesterday and on Mon.

to take its course and Judge Newt

bench that fair and impartial trials
shall be accorded the defendants
Sheriff Reid has no extra deputies on
duty. He has summoned the special
venire of 84 men drawn for jurv serv
ice to appear at the court house to
morrow morning.
