Yesterday, the 4th inst, Henry Lov-
ett, colored, paid the extreme penalty of
the law at Whiteville, Columbus county,
for the murder of Archilaus P. Williams,
who was also colored. The crime was
committed at Williamson's X Roads, is
Tatum's township, in the above named
eounty, on the 19th day of July. 1880.
The parties had always been upon the
most friendly ttrms, bat upon the day
of the murder there had been a slight
misunderstanding between them,, both
being partially intoxicated. The diffi
culty, however, ;had been settled, and
Lovett went to Williams and, patting
his arm around the neck of the latter,
said, "There is no trouble, Ard,' (a
name by which Williams was sometimes
known) between us"; and the two walked
off a few steps together in seeming
friendship, when a blew was beard by
the bystanders and Williams exclaimed,
"I'm a dead man, without cause," and at
the same time Lovett was seen to draw
his knife from the neck of his victim.
The assassin made no effort to escape,
and was immediately arrested by some
of the people present while others has
tened to the assistance of the wounded
man. -They found him with his throat
and windpipe cut and the jugular vein
nearly severed. Medical skill was prompt
ly in attepdance, but the man lived only
about twenty-four hours alter receiving
the fatal wounds.
The murdered man was about;fifty-five
years of age, and left a wife and several
children. He was, generally, a peacable,
quiet man, but sometimes, especially
when he had become intoxicated, was
inclined to be turbulent. On this occa
sion, although drinking freely, he was
very quiet.
Lovett was held ta await the finding
of the jury of inquest, and tha being
in accordance with the foregoing facts,
he was committed to tho coonty'jail to
await the action of the grand iuryjn
the matter: At the Fall term of the
Superior Court of Ixtmbus county,
the grand jury found a "true i bill"
.jrainat Lovett, and he was arraign-
1 for trial. Messrs. W. L. Norment, of
Robeson, and O. C. Lyon, of Bladen,
were assigned by the Court as counsel
to defend the prisoner, and upon afflda
vitmade that the defense was not pre
pared for trial, the case. was continued
to the Spring Term of 1881. At the
Spring Term of 1881 the defendant asked
fnr m. atill farther ccntmuance to enable
him to secure Jhe attendanct Mnptr

the case continued to the Fall Term of
'l88l. At the Fall Term, which con
vened at Whiteville on the 19th of Sep
tember, 1831, His Honor, Jndge Jesse
F. Graves, presiding, Lovett was brought
to trial, and after a fair and impartial
hearing, an able defense by his counsel
and an exhaustive charge, both of the
law and testimony in the case, a verdict
of "guilty of murder in the first degree
was rendered by the jury. A motion
was made for a new trial upon the ground
that no malice was shown npon the part
of the prisoner, but His Honor overruled
the motion and upon the reqaest of the
Solicitor for the State, J. D. M elver,
Esq., proceeded .to pass sentence, which
was, "That the prisoner be taken back
Irom whence he came and there confined
until the 4th day of Noyember, 1881,
and that he then, between the hours of
10 o'clock A. M. and 4 o'clock P. M., be
taken thence by the Sheriff of Columbus
county to the place of common execution
and there hanged by the neck until he be
dead." The prisoner received his sen
tence with a perfectly stolid indifference,
and without .any apparent remorse for his
fearful crime or regard for the awful fate
which awaited him. In this state ot
mind he has remained until within the
last few days, when-he .professed to be
come convicted ot sin' and was converted.
He, however, to the last maintained that
he had no knowledge oc realization of
the crime for which he has just paid
the penalty. He was visited du
ring his incarceration by the Rev. J. W.
Dickson, of the Baptist Church, who '
offered him spiritual advice and consola
tion,and he has also been visited by two
colored clergymen of the same denomina
tion and for the same pirpose. One of
the latter. Rev. B. Gore, stated to the
reporter that Lovett expressed himself
as willing and prepared to go.
Lovett was about twenty-four years of
age, fall black, small statare, and his
status, as a colored man, was considera
bly below the average of intelligence
among those people. He was never
married, his father is dead, but his moth,
er, three sisters and one brother are now
living near Kins ton, Lenoir cosnty, in
this State. 1
At an early hour the streets of the
quiet and lovely town of Whiteville be
gan to be thronged with people from the
surrounding conn toy who were incited
there to witness tho awful bat nncsaal
spectacle of a public execution. The
gallows, which was in the jail yard, was

At precisely thirty miautes past ele
ven o'colck, A. M., the jail doors were
opened and Lovett, in . the 'custody of
Sheriff A. McCollum. aud his deputy f
and attended by his spiritual advisors,
came out and mounted the scaffold with"
a firm step and perfectly calm demeanor.
After prayer and singing, be bade good
bye to those in attendance and hoped
tbalhe should meet tbem all in heaven.
The Sheriff i hen adjusted the cap and
rope and at precisely 12 o'clock and 10
minutes, P. M , the drop fell und Henry
Lovett was lasncb d into eternity. II is
