16. A reward of $1,000 was offered by Governor Harry F. Byrd. in the nam of the state for the arrest and conviction of any one. member of the party that lynched Raymond Bird on the morninsr of August 15 at Wytheville.

The reward offered by th governor is in addition to the $100 reward offered by the Wythe county officials. Raymond Bird was shot in the county jail at Wytheville early in the morning of August 15 by a mob of men, supposedly of Wythe county, and taken to the vicinity where the crime for which he was held was said to have been committed and was there hanged. Efforts to apprehend members of the mob have not resulted in any arrests up to this time. It was reported last week that Bird had been the lather of three children which he had had by three girls who were members of the family for whom Bird worked, and that a general knowledge, of this fact had precipitated the crime.

It is quit singular but true that, instead of erecting a "black mammy statue as a monument to the Negro slave as some cities are wont to do, a tablet was unveiled here a few days ago which marks the spot where once stood the famous old Seymour Finney's hotel, which was the Detroit station of the "Underground Railway" through which many slaves passed to freedom. Seymour Finney, proprietor of this hotel and station, in defiance of the Fugitive Slave Law, housed and fed and secretly passed hundreds of runaway slaves who were able to reach this town over the border into Can ada and freedom. It is said that when a bunch of escaped slaves arrived in Detroit or vicinity, usually at night, they would be concealed in outlying woods or forests until Mr. Finney could be notified; then they would be brought to Finney barn and kept until the next night, at which time they would be earned through various alleys to th river front and rowed across to Canada. This formed a part of what was known as the "Underground Rail way," so called because of the under handed way used to bootleg slaves to freedom.

The Underground Rail way was a secret society organized for this specific purpose, and was not a secret passageway tunneled under the earth, as many have supposed. HARRISONBURG, Mrs. Rrie Lewis and niece. Miaa Wllla Jefferson, of Toungstown. IX.
