cerning her sister smoking cigar
ettes, Miss Ethel Roosevelt stated
that the claims of her slater's ac

UNION CITY, Tenn., Nov. 21.
Stripped and beaten until she con'
sented to become the secretary of
Reeltoot Lake fisherman's orgmlno
tion, known as the Night Rldora,
Mrs. Ella Pride, a widow, 40 years
old, was forced to don mapcu'.lne
clothing and accompany the riders
on their raids.
Under a threat of death she acted
as their secretary for years, hand
ling their correspondence with simi
lar organizations In other states and
keeping careful minutes of their
meetings.
She learned practically all heir
secrets, and In revenge for the hu
miliation to which she waa subjected
she says she will tell all these secrets
to the grand Jury, 'which Is investi
gating the lynching of Captain Quon
tln Rankin, and the attempted mur
der of his law partner. Colonel Z. R
Taylor, at Walnut Log recently.
Mrs. Pride waa arrested at her
horn, on Reeltoot lake and brought
to Union City yesterday by a posse
of state militiamen. She announced
her readiness to make a confession,
but the details of her statement to
the prosecuting attorney were not i
made known.
Promise. Complete Confession.
"I will tell all I know," she said
to newspaper men. "Th. organisa
tion of which I waa secretary Is
known as the 'Sons of Joy.' An old
man named Byrd was president sad
Garrett Johnson waa captain." Both I
of these men are under arrest. '
Mrs. Pride saya the books she
kept have been destroyed. She de
clared, however, that she would tell
the grand Jury what they contained.
In her statement to the militia of
ficers Mrs. Pride said regular dues
were paid tor the maintenance pf the
organization and terrible oaths were
exacted from the members to keep
the secrets. She admitted that she
had been In several raids with the
men, sometimes on horseback and at
other times on foot, but denied that
she was with them on the night of
Rankin's lynching.
Aided by Tobacco Raiders.
Mra. Pride declared that subscrip
tions were received frequently from
tobacco raisers In Kentucky and Ten
nessee to keep up the Reeltoot laie
organization.
Rankin and Taylor were not In
volved in any tobacco warfare In
Kentucky or Tennessee, but as attor
neys for a land company they were
trying to oust the squatters from
their hunting and fishing grounds
along Reelfoot lake. Both men have
been warned that their Uvea were In
danger. ,
On the night of tne lynching the
two men occupied a room In the ho
tel at Walnut Log, where they had
gone to prepare legal papers to oust
the squatters. They were Uken from
their room by a mob of masked men
and Rankin was killed. Taylor es
caped and notified the authorities.
He did not mention the presence of
a woman In the band.
Habeas Corpus Writs Issued.
Fifty prisoners were taken by the
state mllttta, and the prosecuting au
thorities say that the evidence sup
Piled by Mrs. Pride Is sufficient to
convict them. Writs of habeas cor-
pus returnable Friday were Issued to- j
day on the petition! of attorneys I
representing the 50 prisoners. Judge '
Joseph E. Jones announced that a '
special sesalon of the Circuit court j
win convene the first week In De
cember to try the defendants.
The Circuit court Is now In ! An
but Its legality will be ouaatlnniui nn
the ground that the presiding Judge
failed to announce the session 10
days In advance, as required by stat
ute. Should the present court be
declared void, the Indictments
against the alleged night raiders
would be recommitted to th. Decem
ber term.
