HOE NOTES
ANOTHER “ LEGAL”
LYNCHING IN SOUTH
Nashville,
March
27.—(C N A )—
A fter, a disgracefully hurried “ trial,’’
with the newspapers hollering for his
life, Carey Gunn, 20-year-old Bolivar
Negro worker, was legally lynched
here at dawn yesterday.
Gunn was tried in Bolivar on a
charge of attacking a 15-year-old
white girl near Middletowm Decem
ber 13. The only evidence offered
was the confession extorted out of
him by police third degree methods.
He was convicted on the first ballot
after the jury had been out only five
minute*.
Some of the employees at the Port
land Hotel put on a rip snorting
show Tuesday night in the assembly
hall. Captain Bowen, Mrs. Blue and
Mr*. Alma did the Hula-hula dance.
Qpeen Bonnie made a big hit with
her song skit. Stanley was the joke-
smith.
Anthony Logan, waiter and janitor,
who died last Saturday in lUt *Ul*
hospital in Salem, was buried Thurs
day under the auspice* of the Order
of Elks of which he was a member.
Allen White was an extra waiter
at the Portland one day last week
and got by in grand style.
