Tillman oxf Saturday. The governor ordered him back to Pemnark for a preliminary trial.

lie was laKeu mere Monday, and at every station below Columbia the crowds im-re many meu boarding the train and following the prisouer, The uegro was at once taken to Senator Mar- field's office together with his witnesses bv whom he hoped to establish an alibi, and a citizens' cenrt ottened hv nlmiit i nf tks mne fluential and older men as court and jury. Peterson was allowed to tell his own storr of his whereabouts from Monday orior to the crime until the Sunday after, lie claimed to haTe left here on Wednesday morning prior, goiiig to North's, where he remained until San- three or four negroes from Norths and partially by one white man. The witnesses next put up were a white man and a negro woman. The former swore be saw Peterson here on Thurs day prior to the crime, the latter that prisoner played cards here on Thursday night and left rnday morning early, going toward the scene of the crime. Two white men swore that the woman with whom he claimed to-have stopped on Thursday night told them that Pe rsou was I ere and was guilty of the crime in her opinion.

Peterson was then taken before Miss Baxter, nearly every one agreeing the evidence was strongly against bim. Miss Baxter and her little brother both failed to ideutify him. The return of the prisoner under Constable Weeks was slow, and the crowd in the meantime began to doubt the girl's ability to identify her assailant. Meantime her rather returned and gave way to tears aud race, saving she would never be able to identify. This excited the crowd and they began to clamor for banging.

When "he prisoner ar rived it looked as if he would be Liken out and tided. But the officer safely got him in the guardhouse. The popular excitement culminated at about o'clock in the lynchiug ot Peterson by au in-j furiated mob of 500 persons, who filled his body with bullits while it dangled from a tree. There is every reason to belisve that Peter son was innocent and that the mob in its fury wreaked vengeance on the wrong man. Mis Baxter, as stated above, failed to ideutify Pe terson as her assaulter; in tact she stated posi tively that he was not the man.

After her father came to town and declared his daughter cou'd not reeognize the mau who assaulted her f.re was added to the name, homebody had to die and somebody has died. Peterson was carried up the railroad track a short distauce. A noose was placed around his neck and it was tied to a bent sapling, and the unfortunate man's body shot up into the air, filled by a thousaud bullets. The crowd stayed ur und awhile and fired bullets into the body and then dispersed. Governor Tillman action in allowing Petcr- son to go before the mob in lts frenhed condi- lion to De ineu uy juage L.yncu court, is meeting with severe condemnation in Colum bia.

His action is regarded as having been an invitation to the mob to take the negro and pass upon his case in its own way. Montgomery County News Troy.
