Four White Men Slay
Clinton Negro Driver
X U!>M I. | ?
Clinton, July 5.- -Four unidentified
white men dragged Morris Dendy, 8t>year-old
Negro, from the small Clinton
juil early today and a few hours
later his bcgtou and strangled body
was found in a churchyard near here.
Dendy was placed in the jail, a
small town building with no regular
jailer, late " 'yesterday for striking.
Marvin Lolli white Clinton truck
driver, and resisting arresK
About midnight, the jail's Necrb
janitor said, men came to
the. building, knocked the lock olf
with a wrench and forced Dendy into
their automgjjile. They disappeared
before an alarm could be spread.
Thud Moore, one of the deputies of
SheriiV Columbus Owens, of laiurcn*
county, sent out to search for the
Negro and his captors, found the
body in the old iSardis churchyard,
seven miles from here, shortly before
1 p, m.
It bore marks of a severe .beating
and a found the Negro's neck was a
rope. The body, hqwever, was lying
at the gateway to the church's cemetery
and iSherifT Owens said Dendy
had apparently been hanged somewhere
else and the body romovod
there.
Ono of the Negro's wounds was
first mistaken for a billet wound but
George Holland, Clinton police chief,
who examined the body, said Dendy
had not been shot.
Lollis and Dendy each drove a
truck load of picnickers to lako Mur1
ray, in the lower part of Laurens
county, for u Fourth of July celebration
yesterday.
The Negro and white man became
involved in an argument, witnesses
said, and Dendy struck Lollis with u
stick, indicting a gash on his cheek.
When white men at the picnic attempted
to. apprehend him, the Nogro
fied in his truck, but officers at Goldvillo,
between the lake and Clinton,
were advised to watch for him and
when , he arrived there he was arrested.
Goldville officers brought him
here where he was placed in jail.
There had been no known threats
against Dendy and as the charge
against him was not considered serious,
no extra precautions were taken
to guard him.
Solicitor Homer S. Blackwell announced
an inquest would not be held
until next week, pending the gather-1
ing of evidence.
Sheriff Owens said he had no clues
on which to work and that he had
I "no idea" who to look for. He said
ho was unable to track the lynchers
with bloodhounds as they traveled by
automobile.

Famous Aviator Dies.
Indianapolis, July 3.?The adventurous
career of Russell Boardman,
Jo-year old Boston and Springfield,
Mass., aviator and sportsman, was J
terminated today by death.
Injuries suffered last Saturday |
while streaking down the runway of
the municipal airport here caused his
death. He had landed to refuel while
racing across country in the New
York to Los Angeles air derby. During
the take off in resumption of his
westward flight a cross wind caught
his tiny ship and sent it spinning out
of control.
Boardman, who had distinguished
himself by n non-^Jop flight, from
New York to Istanbul, Turkey, in
1931, in company with John Polando,
was counted one of the country's
leading pilots.
Senator James Hamilton Lewis of
Illinois, is confined to a Washington

and an intestinal ailment.
Boliver Edwards Kemp, congressman.from
the sixth Louisiana district,
aged GO years, died at Amite,
La., shortly after returning from
Washington.
Saved By Quick Thinking.
J. L. McLeod, .Sumter lumberman,
is recovering in tho Kelley sanatorium
in Kings tree from a compound
fracture of his leg, sustained when ho
| was thrown from a logging train
near St. Stephens two weeks ago.
But for his quick thinking McLeod
would certainly have been killed.
While riding on the empty logging
train McLeod's leg became entangled
in a heavy chain and he was thrown
from the car. He held to the chain
with onp hand to keep from falling
beneath the wheels of the train,
which was travelling at about 2,0
miles per hour. Wh?n he reached a
trestle, McLeod put his foot against
a wheel and pushed himself clear.
The wheel, however rolled over his
leg, crushing it severely. He fell into
the water and managed to swim to
9hore. Two hours later he was picked
up and taken to Kingstree.?Thursday's

Hand Badly Hurt
Howard Hinson, young white man,
wbo is a helper at the Electrik Maid
Bake Shop in this city, had his left
hand badly lacerated Thursday morning.
It is said that young ,_Hinson,
while cleaning up around the bakery,
uninstructed threw the switch to a
brake machine, which he started
cleaning and by accident his hand became
entangled. The machine was
instantly stopped by others and reversed
releasing the trapped ^iand
only after very painful lacerftions
had been made. He was carried to
the Camden hospital for treatment
where it required thirty-five stitches
to close up the wound. It is not
thought, however, that he will lose
his hand. 1 |
Senators and representatives asking
for jobs for constituents in tho
Tennessee river development, have
been frankly told that it is not how a
man voted or for whom that fits him
for a job, but what he can do that
will be the measure of employment.
