PASTOR ADMITS KILLING TWO
Boy Confesses South Carolina Axe Slaying
Young Wessinger Tells of
Killing Aunt and Striking
Down Three Small Children
Youth Confesses After First Blaming Crime on Negro.
Says He “Got Mad” With Mrs. Wessinger During
i Argument Over Lost Knife
CILUMBIA, S. C.—Asbury Wes
singer, 14-year-old boy, confessed
to officers Sunday that he fatally
wounded his aunt, Mrs. Lina Wes
singer, ,and seriously wounded her
three small children, with an axe
late Saturday. Mrs. Wessinger
died in a local hospital Satur
day.
The boy’s confession, made to
several officers, put an end to a
hearch by hundreds of armed men
for a strange negro who was at
first reported to have crushed in
the skulls of the fourr victims at
thejr home near New Brookland.
Adbury himself gave the alarm,
and told a story of having been
frightened away from his aunt’s
home by a tall black negro.
Relatives going to the home
after the boy told his story, found
Mrs. Wessinger, the 25-year-old
wife of D. Voight Wessinger, em
ployee of a local bottling company,
lying at her cowshed with a gash
in the back of her head. She
had been milking, apparently,
when attacked.
Newman, age 6, Charles Rufus,
age 4, and Azilee, 1 year of age, ,
were found in the house, each
showing an axe wound. The two
older children are in a critical
condition Sunday, but it is believed
the baby may get well. A blood
stained axe, with which the deed
was committed, was found leaning
against the wall of the house.
Contradictions by the boy in
repeating his account of the trage
dy Sunday and the statement by
one of the physicians attending the
injured, that the wound did not
appear to be the work of a full
grown man, led to Questioning of
Asbury and his confession, accord
ing to officers.
YOUTH PLACED IN
COLUMBIA JAIL
Following young Wesslnger's
confession, a warrant charging him
with murder was sworn and the
youth placed in the Columbia city
jail to be held for Lexington coun
ty authorities.
In his confession to officers, the
hov admitted that the story he
tnid of the "tall, black negro’’
chasing him from the house and
then attacking his aunt and her
three children was for the purpose
of diverting suspicion from him
self.
The only reason given by the
boy for the attack was a difficulty
he had with his aunt over a knife
he said he had lost while visiting
the Wessinger home and failed to
find, when he returned for It. He
declared that he "got mad’’ and
"lost my temper” during the argu
ment.
Mrs. Wesslnger’s husband was
away from the home at the time
of the attack.
In the discussion over the knife,
the boy told officers that his aunt
had used “rough words" to him,
which he said, made him "mad.”
Describing his movements before
and during the attack, young Wes
singer said after the argument,
his aunt left the house and went
into the yard. He said he then ob
tained an axe handle and attacked
the children who were sitting on
the steps of the house. He hit the
o’dest child first, he said, and then
struck the next oldest. He declar
ed he did not remember hitting the
youngest child.
HIT HER AS SHE
LAY ON GROUND
Stepping over the prostrate
forms of the three children, he
said he went out into the yard and
picked up an axe which was lying
near a woodshed. At this time, his
has started to milk a cow
some distance away from the
house, the 'boy said.
Approaching the woman fror%
the rear, young. Wessinger stated
that raised the axe and struck
just as the victim turned her head.
She toppled from the stool on
which she was sitting and the boy,
in answer to questions, said he
must have hit her twice as she
lay upon the ground. He hit her
with the blunt side of the axe. he
said. According to the hoy's story,
she did not speak oy make any out-
He then left the home, went to
his own home some distance away,
and told his father the story of
his aunt and the children being at
tacked by a "tall, black negro.”
He admitted to officers that this
story was a fabrication.
Due to the absence from the
county of the so'icitor, the inquest
over the body of Mrs. Wessinger
has been postponed until his re
turn from court in another coun
ty, it was stated.
Three negroes who were arrest
ed Saturday night and wore.belnij
held in connection with the attack,
were released Sunday.

DAVIS DECLARES
SIGNS POINTTO
VICTORY FDR
DEMOCRATS
' NEW YORK—Returning here
Saturday after a 5,000-mile cam
paign through the west, John W.
Davis, the democratic presidential
nominee, declared that “all signs
point to »i sweeping democratic
victory in the coming election.”
"I return to the east confident
i of success”, he said. "Privilege has
won its last battle. We are laying
our cause before the American
people and they are responding
nobiy.”
Mr. Davis said everywhere he
went in the west all those with
whom he talked brought the same
message—“that the great silent
vote, that vote which has turned
every election in the past when
the American people came to a
cross-road, has made up its mind
this year to turn to the democratic
party as the only possible avenue
of relief.”
“The people fully realize,” he
said, "that the choice lies only
between continuing the present
discredited republican regime or
installing the Ct rnocratlc atimin
instration In its stead.”
Asserting that in all the states
he had visited—West Virginia, 11-1
1 nois, Indiana, Wyoming. Nebras
ka, Colorado, Kansas and Missouri
—he had found the democratic
party and undivided. Mr. Davis
said its members were wocking to
gether in an “absolute unity of
purpose and with an interest I
have never seen surpassed in any
campaign."
"Everywhere that I have been I
have heard the same stbry,” he
added, "and it has come to me
from men regardless of previous
party affiliation—it is that of dis
satisfaction with the service rend
ered—or rather denied, by the gov
ernment during the last three and
a half years.
“The farmer resents the decep
tion that was attempted by the re
publican party in placing an utter
ly ineffective tariff duty on his
products; he realizes the artificial
increase in the price of all things
he buys, and he is convinced that
there is no sincere purpose on the
part of the republican party to
take relief measures for him.
“The laboring man is no longer
deceived by the cry of republican
prosperity and feels keenly the
rising cost of living.
"The exposures of corruption in
Washington made a far deeper im
pression on the public mind and
the moral sense of the country
than the leaders of the republican
party are willing to admit. They
have not been forgotten and will
not be forgiven.”

Means, instigator And star
witness in the Daugherty in
quiry whose repudiation of his
own testimony was published
Sunday called Senator Whee
ler, independent vice presiden
tial candidate over the long
distance telephone Sunday
night and gave a startling ver
sion of that episode, Senator
Wheeler announced Monday to
correspondents traveling with
him on his campaign tour.
"Means asked me to call the
senate investigating committee
together in order that he might
present documentary evidence
and personal testimony which
would prove, he said, even
grosser corruption in the exe
cutive departments at Wash
ington than was alleged in tes
timony before the hearing last
spring,” Senator Wheeler de
clared.
COLUMBUS, Ohio.—Miss Roxie
Stinson, one of .the senate com
mittee's star witnesses in the in
vestigation of Harry M. Daugherty
former United States attorney gen
eral, Monday characterized ns
“ridiculous” a purported statement
from Gaston B. Means, former de
partment of justice agent to the
former attorney general in which
Means repudiated his testimony
before the committee.
Miss Stinson, former wife of
Jesse Smith, whose name also fi
gured conspicuously In the senate
investigation, denied statements
contained in Means repudiation in
which he declared that Miss Stin
son like hinisolf bad given testi
mony “inspired by Senator Burton
K. Wheeler, prosecutor of the in
vestigation” and denied that coer
cion had been used in obtaining
her testimony.
"It is perfectly ridiculous," she
said. "I am only casually ac
quainted with Mr. Means. How
could he know anything about my
testimony, I did not say anything
under coercion. No one forced me
to go to Washington.”
REPUDIATION MADE
PUBLIC BY DAUGHERTY
Means repudiation was made
public here by Mr. Daugherty in
connection with a letter he sent to
John W. Davis democratic presi
dential candidate.
The former attorney-general sev
erely criticized Mr. Davis for re
ferring to alleged misconduct of
my administration without first
learning the facts." A copy .of
Means' repudiation was sent Mr.
Davis with the letter.
Means declared in his statement
thut all testimony he gave before
the senate committee was prompt
ed by Senator Wheeler and declar
ed that the Montana senator knew
the testimony was untrue. "I tes
tified what I did before the com
mittee only after a friend had told
me that Daugherty had said
‘Means can go to hell,’ Means’
statement said. He declared that
the beginning of his relations with
Senator Wheeler was prompted by
a desire to obtain information as to
what the senate committee was
doing regarding its investigation
of the attorney general's depart
ment in order that he might ad
vise Daugherty. "Up until the day
I took the stand,” the statement
said, “I was getting Information to
furnish the attorney general's de
partment. When I was told that
Mr. Daugherty had said that I
could go to hell, I testified to what
I did.”
Means declared he had In his
possession information which
would prove that his testimony was
untrue and could submit physical
evidence to further substantiate his
statements. "The testimony against
Daugherty was all a tissue of lies.”
he said and the only reason I made
the statements the way T did was
because of the message t received
from Mr. Daugherty Just before 1
took the stand.”
