The girl invited them in and served dinner for them, after which they drew their revolvers on the girl, bound her hand and foot and carried her into the yard. They then removed everything from the house, even to the cook stove and carpets, set the house on fire, and rode into the woods, taking only a few things of little value.

The negro then told an evasive story as Smith thought. The detective then realized the enormity of his own offense, and, pulling his pistol, riddled the negro with bullets, and}. left him hanging. Returning to town, he gave it out that lynchers had caught the negro and treated him as described. Parties interested traced the crime to Smith, who then fled and went to South Carolina, where he was raised. The sheriff of Fayette county traced him there and brought him back. Smith’s story is that he arrested the negro and swung him up to try to wring a confession from him, and while thus engaged the lynching party came along and shot him and cut his ears off. pena cores ' The Tanner trouble has reached a condition in which it can hardly be charged that the enemies of the ad- ministration are chiefly concerned to compass Tanner's removal from of- fice.
