for VM0 were ehiirjrei flith rape or attempted rape and
that the jraniut of crim, imaginary and real, and the
! flimsiest of pretexts! Ifceited mobs to do their fellow
men to death. T
The record shown tl there were 82 lynchings, 77 of
which were in the Sh. The number included .75
negroes and 7 whites.' Dne nepro woman was murdered.
Nineteen of the victirtjT were eliarged with rape or at
tiimited rape. Seven "jpere burned; !! of these were
charged witli rape, 2 VMh murder, 1 with killinir a she
riff and against the otHJi- no charge was iven. All the
whites ljTiched were sltirged with mniider; 13 of the
negroes were charged lith murder, 10 with attempted
rape, 9 with rape.. Ot-rs were charged with inciting
riots, shooting officers! insulting women, incendiary
talk, writing improper tters and rohbery. One. mur
derer was lynoheil wheiifliis sentence was commuted ti
life imprisonment. Ontian who! shot in self-defense
and another who was 'acraiitted of the charge of shoot
ing an officer were victim of molw. One man was dealt
with because he appcaled!,'rom a ten year sentence for
attempting the life of another.
Certainly those who wSuld justify mob violence can
find little consolation in 'he foregoing record. It is
shown beyond a doubt thni the lives of none are safe
