Wiley Thompson Acquitted of the Murder
of Garvin Allen-—A. Pro fens or at Clem*
•on College ^Ieet4 With a Horrible
Death—An Effort Made to Have a De
ceiver Appointed.
Aiken*, S. 0., Oct. 22.—Tho trial of
Wiley Thompson of Augusta, charged
vrith tho murder of Garvin Allen of the
same place, at Mrs. Joplin's place, near
Bath, S. 0., on Jan. 22, was taken up
here and for some time it was thought
that the case would bo a long one, but
witness after witness was put up by So
licitor Bellinger and the closest exami
nation made of each, but the case grew
weaker and weaker for the prosecution
and at about 8:30 o’clock, when tho last
witness for the state concluded his tes
timony, Solicitor Bellinger turned and
requested the judge to charge the jury
to render a verdict of not guilty, and
the jury compiled with the request
without leaving their scats.
The facts of the case are as follows:
Last January Mrs. Joplin gave a dance
at her place to several of her young
friends and invited several young
men from Augusta and among them
Mr. Thompson. Several who were
not invited came, and among them
was Garvin Allen. In this latter party,
it is said, was a young man named Wil
son, who bought whisky for tho crowd,
and when they arrived at the dance
they were under iis influence. The
young men who wore in tho invited
t iarty insisted that tho intruders should
eave. They f arted back to Augusta,
but lost their way and returned. A row
ensued and Garvin was shot. Wilson
and Geddi who accompanied him, took
him back t > Augusta, but lie died on
tho road. Tho shot which killed him
was fired *rom tho dark and no proof
could be I ad that pointed to Thompson.

A RACE RIOT AT ROXBORO.
While Men and Negroes Fight mid Sev-
eral Are Utttlly Injured.
Raleigh, Oct. 24.—A riot occurred in
Person county. The county candidates
spoke at Winstead. After conservative
speeches by R. B. Boone of Durham and
Colonel John S. Cunningham of Person,
S. P. Satterfield, Republican candidate
for the house, made an incendiary
speech to the nogros and caused them
to attack a white man, and as lie
was defending himself from their vile
epithets they began to strike him with
sticks, and a general riot, ensued be
tween several hundred white and ne
gro men.
The difficulty was brought on by tho
iuflamed mind of the negroes, tho re
sult of Satterfield’s speech. Many wore
death, ami sincerely sympathize with
his estimable parents in their great J
nflliction. The sudden termination
of a bright young life is indeed sad, |
and it is peculiarly so in this in- i
stance, for our lamented friend not
only possessed talents of the highest |
order, but a lovable disposition and
nobility of character that made the !
community in Which he lived better
for his presence. Tho writer has 1
known him from his childhood and
has often noted in the child the no
ble traits and indications of intcllec- j
tual exctllence which developed and
blended so admirably in his pure and iin j business,
exemplary young life. The highest
type of a Christian gentleman and
earnest student, his death is not
alone a loss to the community but to
the commonwealth of South Caro

Colonel Cunningham made a speech
to pacify the white men. He appealed
to them to allow their better judgment
to prevail over their anger, which had
resulted in an uncalled for attack, and
to lay aside their passion and prejudice.
His advice was followed by the white
men, and they quickly went to work to

Roxboro is wild and nothing but abuse
