PePRIEST AND liOYLES
GET ROUGH HANDLING
Are Made to Pay Big Amounts
for Hiring Negro Labor in
Georgia Counties.
. W. W. DePriest and a young man
named Boyles received rough treat
ment in Georgia a few days when they
were arrested by Georgia officials for
hiring negro labor to. bring to their
farms in this section. From the best
information obtainable, little regard
was had for the law, but these two
Carolina men were made to suffer em
barassments and pay penalties which
were not prescribed by law at' all.
The court officers in that 'particular
section of Georgia to which they went
for negro farm hands, took the bw
in their own hands and without re
gard for justice, "held them for ran
som." W. W. (Billy) DePriest is one
of the most influential farmers of
this section now living at Henry Lin
coln county. He went after negro
farm hands to bring them tp his farm.
Experience has shown that the Geor
gia negroes in the boll weevil section?
of -that state have been anxious to
come to a more promising section.
Last year when many negroes were
brought to 'Cleveland, the Georgia
land-lords gladly gave them up in or
der to avoid the responsibility of feed
ing them.
' Sentiment regarding the leaving of
negro farm handd has changed so
when DePriest and Boyles were found
down there engaging neirro labor, the
officers put them under arrest.' For
several days ard nights they were
kept in a cold, dirty jail, with no heat
or bed covering and little food. They
engaeed a lawyer, but he seemed pow
erless to help them. They tried to
make it appear that they were with
out; funds or friends, hoping to es
cape without heavy penalty, but when
they.leamed that both had money and
friends, the Georcpa officials prized
their prisoners ail t.ie mure. They
