I>abney and <^hief H. A. Montgomery after the officers had grilled the boy hard since his arrest^ on Saturday. When arrested the boy had a five dollar bill in tho lining of his cap and ho could not give an explanation of the manner in which ho acquired this bill. It was known he had been at tho Gateway Filling Station on Friday night when Mc( ullon was last seen alivo and these two facts were all that tho officers had t6 work on ujvtil Sunday. Following the brutal murder on Friday night when McCuilen was found with his skull crushed and his clothing on Are the officers had worked ceaselessly on tho case. When arrested and questioned they thought that the negro boy was guilty hut when Will Campbell was brought in for questioning this negro with whom Reuben Jones stayed said that the boy was at home and in bed at 9 p. m. on Friday night. When Camphell gave tho officors this information they began to think that they were on the wrong trail 'but kept questioning the boy. On Sunday morning Jones said that he was at the filling station on Friday night a few minutes before tho murder occurred and) that two white men drove up to the .station and engaged in a fight. Jones Said that he then ran home. After he had changed his story the officers felt that they were on the right track and finally the boy broke down and made a complete confession tilling jus>t how he had done the foul deed. He said that Bernard McCuilen was resting in a chair with hit* hands to his head when he struck him over the head with a truck spring that had been used for a tire tool. 4<Oh Lord," McCuilen is reported to have said when the first blow was struck and then the negro boy hit him* again and the second blow ended his life. Jones sai? that he got some gasoline and poured it on the floor and lit a match to it. It is believed that some of the gasoline got on the boy's clothing as he was badly burned on ELECTION NOTICE By order of City Council, Notice is hereby given that an election will be held in the City of Camden, South Carolina, on Tuesday, April 3, 1934, for the purpose of electing ,a Mayor and six Aldermen for the said City of Camden.

He claimed he then walked up the road to the Moore Filling (Station and across to his home. I When taken to the state ponitentiary on Sunday afternoon Jones told the officers that he' was sorry and that 'he should toe given the same treatment that he dealt McCullen. , Young Jones was placed in the city jail after being arrested and was kept in darkness. Ho complained bitterly of the dark cell crying out time and again that he had to get out of .there and the officers then believed that his conscience, was beginning to trouble him. lie endeavored to commit suicide by fastening a chain about his neck and falling off the upper bed in the cell. On these bunks are chains which can be fastened to the wall to support the beds more firmly. Jones placed this chain about his neck, fastening the ends with a s'hoe string but when he fell ! off his bed the shoe string broke. A j close * watch was , kept on the boy i thereafter- and officers wthen not questioning him kept within a short distance to hear anything he might utter. Scarcely ten minutes after the act was committed McCullen's body was found by Mrs. Jcanett? Ellis with his clothing on fire. A large crowd soon gathered at the sceffe of the murder. Local officers began working on the case and a special detective was hired by the Catawba Oil Company and H. W. Plyler. "Bunk" Caskey was, the first person to note that something was wrong at the Gateway Filling Sta-j tion. Stopping there with the inten- ' tion of'getting some refreshments he j noted that smoke was coming out of the office of the filling station. He j immediately left to give the alarm. In the meantime Mrs. Jeanette Ellis ; arrived-at the station with the intention of taking the McCullen boy home and she saw his body lying on the floor beside the stove with his clothing giving off smoke. Patrolman Jenkins with a couple of companions arrived upon the scene soon afterward and water was poured on the boy who was already dead. He had been struck on the head with a heavy instrument and his clothing set on fire. The hose to the gasoline tank had been unfastened and it is believed that the gasoline which had j been left in the hose had been used | to saturate the clothing of the boy. A large crowd soon gathered at the . filling station as the horrible details of the''tragedy quickly spread over the city. C" Sheriff Dabney told the boy that this crime was one which would bring about the extreme punishment and that nothing he added to it would make the punishment more severe. After telling him this the sheriff I asked what (he knew about the death of O. J. Moore. Young Jones raised .has hand above his head and said f that he would siwear before God that he knew nothing of this death. (Since the death of young McOullen the 'strange death of O. J. Moore something ovor a year ago has been much discussed as Moore died of burns outside his tilling station. A coroner's jury >yhich investigated the Moore death found that ho came to his <loath by accident and thu evidence indicatod that, this verdict was justified. Moore was found burned to death jast outside of his station on a cold rainy night. An investigation showed that he had been drinking and. that he had been endeavoring to light a gasoline lamp. About the lanvp was a number of matches which indicated that the deceased had been endeavoring to light it and that gasoline had been poured on the deceased in this manner. Tracks outside the store indicated that he had been running about after catching on tire. It was known that he had in his 'possession about forty dollars that night and when the body was found a considerable amount of silver was found at different places near the body. (Beneath the body was a charred' pocketbook with evidence that a couple of bills had been burned in it. All pf the money that he was known to have 'had in his possession was not accounted for bpt so much it was there that local officers decided at the time that he was not robbed. At that time they decided that the burning was accidental and they are of the same opinion at present as there were no I marks on the body to indicate that Moore had been artruck. Because of the fact that mon^y was left in the cash dgg by Reuben Jones when he killed 2! Cullen led many to believe that Ifo! waa murdered in much the fashion. A check up showed th $3.40 Waa left in the cash draw*! Jones.
