and Mi.ss KtTio Grice. It is believ
ed the county authorities will ol!Vr
a similar reward.
Coroner W. N. Davu impaneled
a jury early this morning and it
nns been taking evidence all day
from physicians and ofTrrs, in ad
dition to tho principal witnesses in
volved. At a late hour trnight it

Officers returned to the city to

where tiiey had gone to investigate
possible clues, with no further i:i
rormation. Ktnorts that two ne-
ii had been arrested there were
nit foundation.
with
Much interest here centers in the
plausibility of the story told by
Ransom Kilhan and Miss Lffie
jGrice. The horrible ness of the
; story and all its revolting details
is almost beyond belief. That such
'an awful crime could be committed
upon a girl after she bail been shot
thru the intestines is almost un
thinkable, ar.d this bus led many to
: think there were other features of
i the crime which have not. been un
j earthed. However, the young lady,
jwhen seen by the Observer corres
pondent at the hospital late this
afternoon, reiterated the story as
told last night and swore on her
deathbed, in all probability, that
she was telling the truth.
Killian Give Account
According to the story t' Id Sun
day night at 10 o'clock, v!u:-. the
body of young Ford was hrugh; t

their way to church and were turn
ing around to come back when they
were held up. The account ns given cipals tell it, has shocked the peo
in the Charlotte Observer of Mon- pie of the county and city as has.
nay morning states that young
Ford was shot while in the car.
The story as told by the Grice girl
and the Killian boy this morning
varies somewhat from that given
out last night.
Ransom Killian, when seen this
morning by u representative of the
Observer, was considerably excited
and plainly showed the effects of
the harrowing experiences of the
night before

where we turned to the left toward
a little patch of woods. We stopped
the car there and John Ford and
Effie Grice got out of the car, tak
ing a blanket with them. I stayed
in the car with Essie Beatty, talk

utes I heard some one walking to
ward the car from the woods,
thinking it was John Ford.
'I said to him 'What's wrong,
John?' An answer came back to
me not to move and to hold up my
hands and a shot fired from a pis
tol. A negro came on up to the
car and asked me if I had any

'lian and the Grice girl broUht the
body to the city.
It was reported around the city
this morning that the negroes
forced young Killian to lie down
beside the Ford boy in his death
struggles on the ground and that
the two girl. i were mistreated for
two hours or more.
Another Theory.
Other reports current on the
street were that the shooting was
done by some of the inhabitants of
thai section, which has become no
torious tm account of the alleged
practices that take place there. It
is currently reported that more
than one myteriom shooting and
holdup has taken place on this
road and that the instigators were
citizens of that community who
have grown tired of the nightly
auto riders that end up in immoral
revel in the woods nttarby.
Mr. and Mrs. Grice, when seen
this morning, said that to all ap
pearances young Ford was a gen
tleman, that he had been in the
habit of visiting their tlaughter
iu;te often. They are of the
opinion that there is more to the
story than has yet been divulged,
and that the truth when told will
reveal still more startling details.
Young Ford and Killian are both
prominently connected in Lin
colnton. At in early hour this
nmrnir.g a number of I.incolnton
citizen were in town in an angry
mood. They assisted local posses
of ofliccrs in scouring the woods.
A number of them went to
Iilack.sburg with Sheriff Carrol
and Chief Orr.
Excitement Wanes.
Although the streets of Gastonia
are crowded with people tonight,
t.ie excitement of the morning has
died down. Numbers of Lincoln
c. anty men are still here.
The atriK-ity of the Sunday night
t'tigedy, if t happened as the pnn
no hannenmg in recent years.
Desnite the insistence of both,
the girls and the Killian boy, that
.. ...it: ..I. . : U t h n I
tney are veiling nit: niiaiitk jwi,
rumors of every sort are nymg
thick and fast. One is to the ef-
feet that the Ford boy received a
note some days ago postmarked
Gaston. a warning him not to come
back here. Again other rumors
are that the supposed negroes
were white men blacked and dis-
euised 83 negroes.
wy on a llttlc used country road
bordered by a wood or oak trees
and underbrush. Bullet holes are
visible m two small oak saplings,
one as high as a man's head and
the other several feet higher.
The injured girl, Essie Beattle,
when seen at the hospital tonight
late, was resting very well. It is
thought that despite the unspeak
able experience through which she
hi3 passed she will recover unless
peritonitis sets in. She was shot
from behind, the bullet piercing
her groin and coming out just
above her hip.

MANAGER PLAN
NOW CONSIDERED
Committee in Durham Sets To
Work to Draft New IMan of
Government.
Durham, Nov. 9. Following a
meeting of a committee of Dur
ham business men under tho chair
manship of Dr. W. H. Glasson, of
Trinity college, preliminary steps
have been taken toward the draft
ing of a new city charter for Dur
ham under the commission man
ager plan. A meeting at an early
date will handle the final form of
the charter which will be present
ed to the people of Durham in an
election as soon as practicable.
The commiision form was de
feated by Durham in 1915 by C8
votes, but the state laws having
changed since that date in respect
to city governments and changes
thereof, the new proposal is ex
pected to be carried by a large
majority, in view of the genera!
satisfaction with the present al
dermanic form.
All members of tho committee
were in favor of the commission
er manager form, the plan calling
for a council of five commissioners
and a manager, which to some exr
tent places the Rotary and Kiwan-
is clubs, the chamber of commerce,
the Merchants' association and the
Central Labor union behind the
proposition, the members repre
senting these and other bodies.
