Eramett Divers Hantred by a Mob Near Fulton For the Murder of Airs. J. W. Cain Tk Pheriff Overpowered and Hi Irl oner Taken and Swunc Front a ltridge Beam. FtTLTOX, Ma, Aug. 15. The people of this community have taken the law into their own hands, and the corpse of the negro outrager and murderer, Emmett Divers, is dangling from bridge near Fulton. The lynching took place at 1 o'clock this morning. Divers was met on the road, as he was being taken here from St. Lonis for trial, by a mob of determined men, who dragged him by force from the custody of the sheriff. A rope was quickly placed around his neck, and he was hanged from the middle span of a high bridge about 9 miles east of here. ISA Emmett Dietrs. Court convened here last Monday, and that night Deputy-Sheriff John n. Buchanan ami J. E. Buclsner went to nring t!ie prisoner here to stand trial. An indictment for murder in the first degree had been found against him. The sheriff left St. Louis with his prisoner at 4:no yesterday afternoon. uwmg to the fact that the excite- ' Jnent and indignat.on of the residents of this section had reached a white heat, due to the atrocious nature of the crime and that threats had been openly made that Divers would never reach here alive. Deputy Sheriff Buchanan decided to take his prisoner only part of the way by rail and make the rest of the trip in a carriage by a circuitous route. Word had been sent him, however, that Fulton was full of desperate men, all clamoring for vengeance and swear ing that Divers should never be grant ed the formality of a triaL Ml 'mm J. ir. Cain. Mr. Victim. At 10 o'clock on the morning of July 23 Mrs. J. W. Cain, IS years old, the wife of a young farmer, who had been married only two months was alone at her home. Divers, who lived 1J miles distant, entered the house un observed. A terrific struggle ensued, but Divers succeeded in binding the unfortunate woman with a rope, which he drew as tight as possible around her neck and tied to her right hand. He then accomplished his vile purpose, but she continued to fight him, and in order to quiet her. and at the same time shield himself, he cut her throat re;eatedly, until the blood poured from eight ghastly gashes. He then went to work for a farmer living only 2 miles away. He was captured at 2 o'clock in the afternoon with evidences of his crime upon him. An effort was made to lynch the negro, but Sheriff W. II. Windsor succeeded in getting him away, and hurried him from one town to another to avoid the mobs which collected. Finally, on the fol lowing Saturday, he was taken to St. Louis from Hannibal. After confessing his crime the negro begged that he be allowed to meet death in the St- Louis jail, apprehending a terrible fate should he be taken back to Fulton. Divers acknowledged the murder, but denied the other crime. He said he did not intend to kill the woman, but did so in the fight she made when lie tried to rob her of a gold ring she wore. He seemed greatly relieved to be in the St. Louis jail, as he fully real ized the danger he had escaped. One of Divers' brothers has served in the penitentiary for assaulting a wo man, and another brother is still in confinement for a similar crime. Aliout three years ago Divers assaulted a colored girl near Fulton, and was in I dieted tor it, but before the case came to trial the prosecuting witness died. NATURAL HISTORY NOTES.
