A Lady's Story of an Officer's Brutaliti Alleging misconduct and bru. tality on the part of a -group o1 officers from Greenville, whil in Pickens county in search o the slayer of officer Gunnels, z lady of that section . writes th< followinv letter to the Green. ville News: "Now that the excitemen caused by the killing of Officei Gunnels has abated and . quie and order reign again, we feel we should report a very aggra vating case of trespass on a family of quiet farm ueople of Pickens county by a bunch of officers of the city of. Green. ville. One evening after the killing of the officer two power. ful autos filled with officers and their deputies with lightning rapidity flashed up to the very door of the farmer's home, and just as the family rushed out to see what the noise and con fusion meant, the officere mounted the steps with drawi pistols and vile oaths, threaton ing to kill the first one who made- a break or acted suspi cious. Imagine if you can the consternation and excitement it would eause a weak and nor vous woman and a family of children raised in a home of cul ture and refinement to be or dered to stand with hands up at the point of pistols in the hands of drunken men shouting thei1 oaths in a tone that was dis tinctly heard by neighborE living one half mile away. Tlh family hadn't heard of the kill ing at the time and could not-at once undlerstand what the otli cers meant. from their drunken babble. "Finally they nde themselves known as wanting two men foi killing an officer of Greenvillo. There had come out that <iy two men from one of the cotton mill villages on business of per sonal interest. The officers had traced them to this farm home, and when told these two men were in the house they rushed in and with abusive oathE ordered them to strip themselvek of their clothing. One, a lad of 16 years, had the exciting expe rience of having the mouth of a pistol in the hands of a reeline officer pressed against the b~ar( flesh over his heart while he wvas brutally or'dered to remove his lower garments, and all this ir the family's private sitting room. "Next the officers hanidcuffec the two men and led them t< their automobiles and passei around their hottles of yellov rye and dranik in the presence o1 the wife and children and drov< off without a word of apology for the annoyance they ha< caused. They seemed utterl: lacking in that Southern gal lantry for which our men havy always been so noted. "Now, .man is born to dlomin ion, but self-control is the high est form of dominion, and h -who cannot reduce his owi physical powvers 'to subjection: should not be given authorit; over his fellow men. 'Hie tha ruleth his owvn spirit is greate than he that taketh a city. While these men when nc under the degrading influenc of whisky may be men of nerv and bravery, under its influenc Swere simply possessed with the foolish bravery that commanc neither honor nor respect. "Truly wve do not believei litigation where is neither horn nor profit in such a proceeding and the less people who live 'c the square' have to (10 therewit Sthe better it is for them, but vi really think this is a case the some amicable attempt shoun be made by the offending part to modify the gross offense th( Shave given. The officers wel all strangers to the writer an some of them were quiet at , orderly, and perhaps hadr control over the others, but lii the poor stork who visited ti farmer's wheat field, they wel fond in bad'ecnmpany."
