"We, as ministers of the Gospel, should preach against crime of all kinds among our own pooplo and strive to so lift them up that they may become model citizens in virtue and obedience to luw. "While wo deplore and detest lynching, especially when it is perpetrated upon victims who are charged with crimes for which, if found guilty after due process of law, would only merit a brief period of imprisonment, wo can not fail to recognize the fact that the man who outrages womanhood, even of the basest t) pe, has forfeited his right to live, anil deserves to live only so long as ho no proven guilty after a trial by jury and a reasonable timo to make his peace with God, if possibly he may. "tv> must join voice and hand to check crime and lawlessness." KILLING AT ABBEVILLE. White Man Killed by a Negro? Gambling at a Negro Hot Supper. Abbeville, S C, Nov 24.?
