I attacking and severely beating Cor
lesa Cook, n negro of tho Honea Path
section, lt is very probable that
there will be' a chargo of murder
made against them since Cook is in
tho county hospital in a serious con
dition and is likely to die. Moro ar
rests are to be mude in Un case nineo
it is said t.:er'j were twelve negroes
mixed"up in lue affair.
It IG said that on Monday night
those twelve negroes went into a
house where Cook was visiting and
took him out. The house is located
in Anderson county but tho negroes
took Cook to the edge of tho Abbeville I
county line and proceeded to beat him j
up, leaving ililm baaty bruised and
lacerated.
Sheriff Ashley was called to Honea j
Path and proceeded to make a thor- I
ough investigation. As a result the j
nine nogroes named abovo were ar- !
rented, and placed in tho jail at |
Honea Path to await developments.
Yesterday afternoon they wore
brought to Anderson and placed in
tho county jail.
