mile from town and lynched.
On l-rivlay Canady, who had been
arrested on the previous Sunday , said
that hi brother, knoun an Charley
Armstrong, who was under arret-t,
had committed tin? murder, but on
Saturday fie retracted hi statement
and said that he himself had committed
the crime. His reason for confessing,
he said, was because the eherilf had
secured enough evidence against him to
convict of three burgl aries. that he was
going to be hung anyhow, and that he
did not want any innocent m:in to snlTer
for his misdeedn.
The murder had excited the moit
intense feeling; throughout the county,
and as soon as it occurred threats were
freely mad that the murderer, if ever
caught, would be lynched. The con
fession to which Sheriff Hamrick torii
lied before the coroner's jury on Fridav
in the examination of the charge
against Bay I is Sisk, soon became known
in the country, and on Saturday morn
ing there was good reason to believe
that an attempt would be
made to lyr.eh Canady tha!
night Sherilf Hamriek wan noti
fied ef this and he summoned a posse
to guard the jail. As mob did not ar
rive at the time expected , part of the
guard went home, so that by eleven
o'clock but few remained.
