Durrett, it is said, is a bad negro and doesn’t stand at all well in the community. After the lynching on Wednesday Durrett got to talking pretty big, it is said, and on Thursday was heard to say he was going to have the leaders of the mob punished, that there was going to be a race war, etc, etc. He was told to shut up and was ordered out of a store for his smart talk.

Only rumors of the affair have been heard. d t A SHOOTING AT COALING.
