NEGRO KILLS WHITE MEN.
Hope, Ark., Nov. 28.—A negro
known as Squire Smith, about 30
years old, shot and killed two |
white men this morning about 9|
o’clock six miles east of here and I
escaped. He is being pursued by I
a posse.
The victims of the negro’s
i
wrath are Count and .John Cleg
horn, brothers. One of them was i
killed instantly and the other died •
in about 20 minutes.
The tragedy occurred at a point
© n t h e line of Hempstead
and Nevada counties. A dog be
longing to the negro had been
killed and he accused the Cleg
horns of the act.
Early this morning some angry
wrords passed between the negro
and the two brothers. A few
hours later while the two Cleg
horns were engaged in clearing j
nome land the negro Smith came
upon them, shooting both men
down with a pistol of large cali
ber.
It is probable that the negro, if
caught, will be summarily dealt
with.
