Special to The State, i Wadesboro, N. C , Aug. 21.? A horrid crime met a terrible and j swift punishment near McFarlan, j about 12 miles from here today. \li>s Lena Keith, a highly respected and prominent young woman of the community was assaulted and probably fatally injured by a negro named Luke Hough. The latter was captured soon after his crime, dtagged to the scene and swung to a limb, after which the j body was literally shot to pieces. Miss Keith, who is about twenty years of age, lives with her brother on a farm about one mile from McFarlan. Shortly after I dinner today Mr. Keith left home, j going to town, leaving his sister at the house. Ha had not been gone long before a negro walked into the house and asked where he was. U is* Ke'th was frightened at liis appearance and tried to de? reive him by saying that her brother was at the barn, and would sons return. !'he negro said that he knew Mr Keith was not at the barn and seizing a chair, he struck the young woman u terrible blow ever the ka.nd shattering the clmi" and hindering her unconscious. After < had accomplished his purpose, the negro tried to cut her throat, evidently using ? dull knife, ni he only made a long scar. After regaining consciousness, Miss Keith managed to make her way to the home of a neighbor, about 400 yards distant. Just as she reached the house she again lost consciousness, falling in a faint in the yard, and it was some minutes before she was able to tell what id happened She finally recovered sufficiently to give a fair description of her assailant. By this tune a large crowd had gathered fn m the surrounding country. Bloodhounds had been telegraphed for and money was ipiieklv raised to charter a special train to carry them to the scene. The Knife which the negro tried to use on Miss Keith's throat was left on the premises., aud was recognized by one of those present as belonging to a negro named Luke Hough, who werked on a nearby farm. The crowd immediately set out in search of him, and when found he was trying to wash off his clothes. fie was immediately seized, and admitted his gmlt. Pending a decision as to what mode of punishment should t>e meted out te him, he was taken to McFarlan and locked in the guard house, while a mob of more than 250 surrounded the building. The ringleaders had a consultation and decided that Hough should be hanged. The door of the prison was burst open, a rope thrown around the negro's neck and he was drugged and kicked to the scene of his criuie.about a mile distant. There the rope was thrown oyer the limb of a tree, and us the body cleared the ground ^elley uftar volley was tired into it, the negro being literally shot to pieeeb. The victim of the assault is one of the most highly esteemed young Indies in her section. She is so badly injured that it is not thought possible that she can recover.? The wounds on her head and chest i are thought te be mortal. J. C. A. CASTOR IA For Infant* and Children.
