Columbus,' Ga., June 25.-Ihree
white Imn had been arrestod up to a
late hour tonight in connection with
the mysterious murder of four negroes,
whose bodies were found at a moon
shine still four and a half miles from
this city early today. The dead ne
groes were Naff Bryan, Willie Wil
lianis, Jesse Nelson and Ollie Odom.
The white men under arrest give
the names of Bernard Vardeman,
Goins and Hubbard.
The bodies of the negroes lay as h'
they had been shot from ambush. The
whole countryside along Hamilton
Road was aroused by the tragedy and
an all-day and all-night hunt has been
In progress,
The negroes had evidently met at
the still to make a Iuni of liquor, as
it has been definitely established it.
was their property. The position of
the bodies indicated they were fired
upon when meeting. One negro was
found some fifty yards from the oth
ers with a bullet hole in his head and
briars indicated that he had fallen in
these after running from the still.
The ollicials state that two of tihe
white men, Goins and Hubbard, had
visited two homes of the negroes on
Wednesday afternoon and searched
their homes for liquor alleged to have
been stolen from their still. They did
not find any, however, and left, i'
was stated. Wednesday night the ie
groes left their homes for the purpose
of making liquor and their absence
from home Thursday led the families
to believe foul play had befallen them.
Sheriff Beard was notified early this
morning and deputies searched for
some time in an effort to find some
trace of the negroes. After hours of
fruItless searching, they were led to
the still by a negro who was afraid
to go there alone.
The bodied of the negroes were
searched and no plistols were found on
them. There was no weapons found
in the vicinity of the killing and no
signs of a struggle evident, although a
very heavy rain could have washed
such signs away Thursday.
Vardeman stated lati tonight that lie
would prove his Innocence at the pre
Iiminary trial, which may be held to
morrow.
