HOSE Sam*

lynched in Georgia for killing a white man and Aoutraging the wife of the dead man@; his ears and fingers were cut off; his heart and liver cut out and carried off by the mob; kerosene poured over his body, which was set afire; Aone special and two regular trains bearing 4000 people went out [from Atlanta] to the scene of the affair ... the mutilation of Hose was below the grade of crimes and warfare of the Apache or Sioux Indians in their most savage days. It shows a spirit of brutal savagery, a spirit of cruelty that has broken through the veneer of civilization and shows that in the hearts of the Southern whites there is at all times a demonical spirit that would outdo in deeds of cruelty even the Malay or negro in his African wilds. The fact that four thousand residents of the city of Atlanta would go to see such an affair, that a railroad company would run special trains to carry people to see such a revolting spectacle ... are striking commentaries on the state of law and order in the South@; editorial 20 April 1899 paper; Rev. Dr. Boughton, Baptist preacher in Atlanta, Georgia, protested the lynching, and his church was attacked by vandals; Athe doors of one of the finest Baptist churches of the South were torn from their hinges and destroyed. Paint was poured over the carpets and floors and furniture destroyed. The assault on Dr. Boughton=s church is but a logical result of lax administration of the law and the criminal indifference of governors, courts and sheriffs to the committing of such gross crimes as murdering respectable and inoffensive colored men for alleged crime when there was not a particle of evidence to connect the prisoner with them@; editorial 6 May 1899 paper
