Inquest on the Body of Joe Vermillion Yesterd When the sun rose at Upper Marlboro’ yes- terday its rays shone on the half naked and horribly mangled body of Joe Vermillion hang- ing from the Patuxent railroad bridge. On his feet were his jail chains. His neck was cut by the rope and his tongue lolled out of his mouth. About 7 o'clock the body was cut down and Justice Harris held an inquest. Jailer Ridge- way told the story of the mob’s coming, as re- lated in Tue Sran’s dispatches yesterday. One of his assailants he recognized. The Baltimore Sun's correspondent in & graphic account of the affair says: As soon as he was released the prisoner wrenched off an iron sash from the window and made a furious attack upon his assailants. He was soon overpowered, but not until he had brought blood, which was smeared over the iron slats of the cell door and the sash. A rope was tied around his neck, his feet and hands were bound, and he was dri down the steps. out of the jail, and thence into the street, ‘There he again resisted, and two men, one at his feet and the other at his head, dragged, shovedand carried him to the bridge, the mob accompanying on horseback. Vermillion’s cries and curses rang out as he was dragged along, and awakened the residents, who raised their windows and peered out to learn the cause of the noise. WARNED BY HIS BROTHERS. In the cells adjoining that occupied by Joe Vermillion are his brothers Edward, John, jr., George and Lloyd. Two of them in a cell looking out on Main street had been awakened upon the approach of the lynchers, and they Yelled to Joe across the corridor to be ready. They say they also warned Mr. Ridgeway not to open the jail door, but the warning was not heard. All the brothers begged the mob not to harm Joe, but their appeals fell upon deaf ears, Their cries for mercy were still ringing | through the cell when their brother was | dragged out, Then Mr. Ridgeway was released | and aroused several of his neighbors, but no | pursuit was made, as it was feared the mob would use their pistols to repel an attack. The mob’s first halt after their start from the be was at an elm tree near the home of Si ent, colored, but some one was a z and they moved on. An attempt w. throw a rope over @ limb of a tree. the details of Vermillion’s d certainable, had been heard by the jury they rendered a verdict that he had met his *death by lynching by parties unknown to the jury.” The body of the lynched man was buricd in the jail yard. No service of an was held, but from the windows overlooking the scene gazed Edward and John Vermillion. jr., broth- | ers of the dead man, weeping pitcously. Joe, who was hanged. was about 5 feet 5 inches tall. He was twenty-seven years old and of lithe, powerful build. He had extra- ordinary courage and was of a nature that re- sented a supposed injury upon the moment it was offered. He had ¢ smail black beard grow- | ing upon his eheeks, lip and chin, black eyes | and rather good-looking face. She dead man had figured trequentiy in the courts of Prince George's county. He was anative of Anne Arundel county and when only six years old was tried at Annapolis for stealing corn from Thomas Clark. Ail the Vermiilions are illiter- ate and bear a bad name.

Young, Theo. B. Collyer, A. J. Michaels and Jerry Chadwick. On entering the room Mr. John W.

Michaels responded in happy terms and expressed the hope that the Washington association would give the Brooklyn veterans an opportunity to reciprocate their open- handed generosity, THE PRESENTATION. Then a recess was taken and after introduc- tions the memento brought by the Brooklynites was brought in and formaily presented, Mr. Storer making the address and Mr. Thompson responding.
