THE RICHMOND PLANET Virginia State Libraries VIRGINIA JAN 22 192 STATE LIBRARY MRS. COOPER KILLED WILLIAM HAMILTON AND THE EVIDENCE Driver Charged With Involuntary Man-slaughter. MRS. Driver The Chauf MRS. MARY E. COOPER KILLED BY AUTO Mrs. Mary Eliza Cooper, a resident of Centralia, Va. was killed at Seventh and Grace Streets. Tuesday afternoon by a Cadillac sedan, driven by William Hamilton, colored. Her head was crushed and her ribs broken. She was mistaken for a white person, so fair was her complexion and she was carried to the Memorial Hospital. She attempted to cross Grace Street, when the unfortunate tragedy followed. Chauffeur Hamilton swerved his car and applied the brakes, missing her, but the momentum caused the car to strike her practically broad-side. STREET TOO NARROW. Had the affair taken place at Seventh and Broad Streets with its wide streets, he would not have struck her. Coroner J. M. Whitfield held an inquest Thursday morning at 10 o'clock. Only one colored witness was examined. The hearing in the Police Court was postponed. Attorney Charles J. Churchman represented Hamilton. It will be established that the lights showed the right of way for the car and that Mrs. Cooper, being from the country, did not understand that she should wait for the change of the traffic signal. WITNESSES TESTIFY. The following explains itself: Police Officer J. E. Cook was sworn and deposed: "On January 18, 1927, I was going west on Grace Street, between 6th and 7th streets on a motorcycle about 4:50 P. M. when I passed William Hamilton, driving a Cadillac sedan going east. There was one passenger on the rear seat. The red light at 6th Street stopped me and I heard a scream and heard brakes screech. I turned to go back east and was caught between two cars and stalled. When I arrived at 7th Street where the accident occurred the sedan was headed west, standing east of the car tracks on 7th Street about the center of Grace Street. At this time some one was picking a woman off the street behind the sedan and laid her on the sidewalk. I did not know her. She was taken to Memorial Hospital. She was a colored woman. At the hospital I learned that her name was Mary Eliza Cooper. I arrested William Hamilton. The only damage to the sedan was the breaking of the glass on the right rear door. The skid marks started on the south side of Grace Street, west of 7th extended across the car tracks to where the car was standing." moved. Ella Jenks Tyndall was sworn and deposed. "I live at 800 Westeroy Road. Byrd Park, this city. I was in the sedan which struck the woman at 7th and Grace Streets on the 18th inst. about 4:45 or 4:50 P. M. My son was with me. William, the chauffeur employed by mrs. J. W. Rothert, was driving the car. At 5th and Grace Streets we stopped to wait for the green light. We went east and when in front of the Y. M. C. A. at 7th Street, I saw the chauffeur blow his horn violently. We were just west of the our tracks when I noticed a woman joy-walking across Grace Street from the northside and east of the white lines. I did not notice the traffic lights at this time. The chauffeur put on his hakes west of the car tracks, crossed the tracks and then turned the car till it was headed west and stopped east of the tracks. Then a sedan went by us rapidly, going west. Then I heard a woman scream and the glass of the right rear door of the car in which I was broken. I do not know what broke the glass." Police Officer S. E. Jordan was sworn and deposed. "The only damage done to the sedan which struck the woman was the breaking of the glass in the right rear door. The marks on the paving made by this sedan started on the west side of 7th Street, about the property line, and extended across 7th Street for 30 yards to the rear of the sedan, which was standing near the middle of Grace Street, headed west and east of both white lines. Four yards east of the car was a spot of blood." J. W. Bucher was sworn and deposed. "I live at 1110 W. Main St. At the time of the accident I was sitting in an automobile belonging to Mrs Walter Kirsch, waiting for her. The car was about 40 feet east of the white crossing lines at 7th and Grace Streets, headed west. I saw a woman crossing Grace from the southside between the white lines. When she was about halfway across I noticed a sedan car coming east, begin to skid west of 7th Street. The car skidded across 7th Street, struck the woman on the right side of the car, broke the glass on the door, knocked the woman down, then turned and headed west. I hollered to the chauffeur not to back, for he would run over the woman. I saw the skid marks on the street, across 7th Street about 80 or 90 feet long. At the time, the sedan started across 7th Street the green light indicated north and south traffic. The street was not wet. I have been driving automobiles for ten or more years, have driven in automobile races. If the brakes were working properly, as the brakes on this car were, and a sedan car made a skid mark about 80 or 90 feet long on dry asphalt. I would think that the car had been running 40 or 50 miles per hour." W. C. Carter, colored, was sworn and deposed. "I live at 802 N. 7th Street. I drive a truck for Thalhimer Brothers. At the time of this accident I was on my truck on 7th Street beside the Y. M. C. A., waiting for the green light, to turn right into Grace Street. I saw the sedan cross 7th Street. A lady was in it screaming. The brakes were crying. I saw the sedan strike the woman and knock her down. The right side of the car struck her. She was crossing the 7th Street." In Memor'am.

BAPTIST MINISTERS INSTALL OFFICERS BAPTIST MINISTERS INSTALL OFFICERS The recently elected officers of The Baptist 'Ministers' Conference of Richmond and Vicinity were installed at a service held at The First Baptist Church, Wednesday night, January 12th. The installation address was delivered by Dr. J. H. Binford. In the course of his address, Dr. Binford stressed the fact that brotherly love should characterize the attitude and relationship of the brothren toward one another, and this love predominating in the pulpit will become contagious in the pew. In a most fitting way he emphasized and accentuated the duties and responsibilities that accompanied each office to which the ministers had been elected. In his inimitable way Dr. W. T. Johnson acted as Master of Ceremonies and introduced each of the officers elect, all responded in a few well chosen sentences that impressed the audience with their earnestness and desire to serve. In his inaugural address the President, Rev. J. E Fountain, B. Th. spoke for a closer cooperation between the churches, and in a brilliant way outlined the program of his administration, which if carried out will add much to the dignity and efficiency of the Baptist Ministerial body of Richmond. After the installation service the brothel descended to the lecture room of the church, where a splendid didp served by The King's Daughters, an auxiliary of First Baptist Church awaited them. Here again Dr. Johnson was 'the man of the hour' and acted as toastmaster. The repast was enlivened by the short and spitty addresses of the guests, the keynote being struck by Mrs. Margaret Rose Johnson, the capable wife of Dr. Johnson, Called upon unexpectedly, she arose to the occasion splendidly and with the skill of a diplomat encouraged, strengthened and heartened the brethren for the great work that the Master has given them to do. The following well known ministers have been chosen to serve the Conference for the current year: Rev J. E. Fountain, B. Th. president; Rev W. L. Ransome, D. D. vice president; Rev J. A. Brinkley, B. D., recording secretary; Rev C. A. Cobbs, assistant secretary; Rev W. T. Johnson, D. D., recording secretary; Rev O. B. Simms, B. Th. reporter; Rev J. T. Crump, auditor; Rev R. J. Bass, treasurer. FUNERAL DIRECTOR HAYES' PURCHASE Funeral Director C. P. Hayes has received the costly 1927 Henney Limouigne Hearse, direct from the factory at Freeport, Ill., which he ordered sometime ago, from the representatives of that great concern in Washington, D. C. It is Model 27 and is the last word in the construction of funeral cars of this type. It has a removable floor rack, which can carry 30 floral designs, a removable cot for the transfer of dead bodies from hospitals or homes, dispensing with the unsightly old style diseased baskets, which have been obnoxious to the public for so many years. Mr. Hayes recently purchased two very fine cars of the Chandler and Butick make and is building up an up-to-date equipment to take care of his steadily increasing business. Mrs. Gerena Fraysler of 3 East Leigh Street is visiting her son, Dr. W. Neal Fraysler, of Macon, Ga. Before returning to the city, she will visit Boston, Mass., guest of Mrs. Fannie Brooks, also New York, the guest of her daughter, Mrs. Hattie Rollrig. THE STOKES ENTERTAIN AT "REST HAVEN." Dr. and Mrs. W. H. Stokes entertained fifteen guest at their suburban home, "Rest Haven," Friday evening, January 14th. The guest were the grand officers, the executive and advisory boards of the Improved Order of Shepherds and Daughters of Botheleham. They enjoyed themselves in the library, talking over different topics of today and the splendid showing that the Reds and Blues were making in the membership drive. The Blues are under the direction of Mrs. Mary E. Cousins and the Reds under Mr. Amos C. Clark. These great generals were very much pleased at the enthusiasm shown, and have every reason to believe that the goal will be reached. This beautiful hospitable home has redoubled to the most elaborate functions in Virginia, having entertained some of our nationally known and influential men and women of the race. But none was more enthusiastic and sympathetic or had a better understanding of the race problem than those who came to pay honor to this great wizard of our Brown Stokes. WE were invited to repair to the dining room, and were seated at one long table extending across the dining and reception rooms. The decorations were green and pink. The menu was appetizing, consisting of turkey, boiled ham, green peas, spinach, potato salad, chocolate, coffee, ice cream and cake. After all had partaken bountifully Mrs. Stokes, the Great Shepherd of the Order, in a few word choices, presented the advisory members to the grand officers and executive board Each person present responded, pledging their loyalty and cooperation to the great Order. Those who testified in eloquent oration of their appreciation and devotion were Attorney James T. Carter, Grand Legal Advisor; Rev. C. A. Cobbs, Grand Chapplain; Rev. A. D. Daly, Member of Advisory Board; Mr. F. E. Lightner, Member of Advisory Board; Mr. George Howell, Member of Advisory Board; Mr. W. H. Denis, Grand Inside Porter; Mr. Chas McClaiborne, Member of the Executive Committee; Mr. Thomas LeCoss, General of the Uniform Department; Mrs. Susie H. Robinson, Member of the Executive Committee; Mrs. Susie J. Williams, Member of the Executive Committee; Mrs. Amanda Randolph, Member of the Advisory Board; Mrs. Emma Winn, Grand Regalia Maker; Mrs. Mary E. Cousins, Grand Record Secretary; Mrs. S. S. Sparrow, Secretary of the Advisory Board; Mr. Amos C. Clark, Grand Secretary Treasurer. SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT. Can anyone call for peace, when there isn't any in him? Can anyone call for union when there is no union in him? Can you tell your brothers to speak to each other, when you don't speak yourself? Isaiah 1st chapter, 18th verse. Come now and let us reason together, saith the Lord. Though your sins be as scarlet they shall be as white as snow. We are praying for union, Shiloh Baptist Church; and we are praying for the union that will save everybody. As Sunday will be our communion, we are inviting all who will, to come and commune with us, and if the union means anything at all, the secrept will not depart from Judah until Shiloh come. Yours for the work of the Mester. REV. S. L. BUSH, B. D.. Pastor of Shiloh Baptist Church. C. A. BUSH, Clerk. CORNELIUS BLAND STRUCK BY AUTOMOBILE. Corneilus Bland, of 408 Glimer St. was struck by an automobile, Wednesday, January 12, 1927. The car was driven by Dale Brown, of 2408 Barton Avenue. Mr. Bland suffered a broken leg and a dislocated and fractured hip, as well as bruises on the head. His condition is serious, however his family is still hopeful for his recovery. PRICE, FIVE CENTS.

The defendant made no answer. His counsel, Hon. George E. Wise had been listlessly walking about the corridor and sitting in the witness chair as Judge John H. Ingram was hearing other cases. In reply as to whether or not Faulkner had left the city, he said he did not know. Some said that when Faulkner left here, he told some persons at the Broad Street Station that he was coming back. Policewoman Miss Sanders was there and also Beach Moore, with her (Continued on page 8) MIR. AND MRS. MILLER CELIBRATE 95TH ANNIVERSARY On Monday night, December 27th, 1926 the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Junius L. Miller, 12 E. 20th Street (Southside) was the scene of one grand and glorious occasion. Amid palms and ferns and under the beautifully lighted lamps, which gave forth varied colors, Mr. and Mrs. Miller were celebrating their twenty-fifth or silver anniversary of their unification in the holy bonds of matrimony and friends both far and near were enjoying the festivities of the occasion... The following maids, handsomely gowned, waited upon the celebrants: Mrs. Blanche Fitzhugh, of Washington, D. C.; Mrs. Lucy Holmes, Mrs. Raphael Thurman and Mrs. Martha Harris. Mr. Webster Dean was the guest of honor; Little Jeanette Dean ring bearer. Mrs. Angie Dean read a beautiful poem on the twenty-five years of the married couple. The groom entered leaning upon the arm of Mrs. Angie Dean and the bride upon the arm of her brother, Mr. Lee Esther Pleasants. Dr. W. L. Ransome, in well chosen language and in his usual dignified manner performed the twenty-fifth marriage ceremony, while Mrs. Fannie Young sang sweetly "Silver Threads Among the Gold." Miss Leola Langhorne presided at the plano. The silver presents were many and costly and the numerous silver coins were in great evidence. Refreshments were served abundantly to the large crowd of admiring friends, while Mrs. Ellen Coleman presided at the punch bowl. The guests enjoyed themselves until the small hours of morn, when the jovial party left for their several homes, wishing the couple of twenty-five years a happy sojourn for many years to come. MEMORIAL ANNEX FOR SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH NEARING COMPLETION. The work on the D. Webster Davis Memorial Sunday School Annex of the Second Baptist Church, South Richmond, is progressing nicely.

The program of improvement also includes remodeling and thorndock renovation of the present building, the installing of a new Grotterfield Pipe Organ, and a modern steam heating system. The general contractor is Mr. A. T. Holmes. He promises to turn over the keys to the trustees by the last of March, presenting the church a complete job. Rev E. C Smith. pastor is losing no time in rallying the forces, looking forward to signal success financially during the dedicatorial services of the Memorial Annex and the reopening of the auditorium.

WHY HUBBIES GET PEEVED GREAT LINCOLN 5005 5005 One section of one of the giant electric locomotives built for the Great Northern Railway. Hello Londoni AUTODASTER history was made when President Walter S. Gifford of the A. T. and T., inaugurated the new radio-telephone between New York and London. You can now talk from your home to your English cousin for 888 per minute. THE west has been introduced to a new type of electric locomotive, said to be the largest and most powerful in the world. Tests at the East Pittsburgh works of the Westinghouse company, that built the locomotive, show it to be more powerful than a steam "double-header." It can haul a train of 200 loaded freight cars. It draws current from the high-voltage alternating current lines already up, but it converts this power to direct current for its own use. Going down hill, it uses its motors as brakes and at the same time generates power enough to supply current for other purposes. Like a giant worm on two dozen wheels, this power engine is split in two, so that it can negotiate turns more easily. It has a total length of 100 feet and weighs 715,000 pounds. It has a continuous rating of 3500 horsepower at 15 miles an hour, but can exert as much as 7000 horsepower. Its speed is variable from two to 35 miles an hour. Eight motors drive it, operated through a huge transformer from an 11,000-volt, 25-cycle overhead trolley. Conversion of the alternating to direct current by the locomotive itself eliminates the use of sub-stations ordinarily required to provide the direct current along the right-of-way. This is a great economic advantage. An important feature, in addition, is the system of regenerative braking by which the heavy trains can be taken down steep grades without the use of air- brakes. The traction motors are used as generators, braking the load and at the same time feeding current back into the power system for other purposes. This huge locomotive is one of two ordered by the Great Northern Railway to surmount at double steam speed the heavy grades of the Cascade Mountains which rise abruptly from the coast in Washington. The present line of the Great Northern crosses these mountains at an elevation of 3335 feet. The first of the pair of giant electric locomotives will operate over the 24-mile section out of Skykomish. Wash., the eastern portal of the Cascade tunnel at the summit of the mountains. It covers one of the longest and steepest mountain grades in America. S.

When you worry with some of these people hereabouts, do not dote on the fact that God made them, too. Some people age at sixty years and some others at thirty. It depends altogether on how they assimilate trouble. Let us encourage the lawless elements amongst us to go elsewhere, and the law abiding class to remain in this neighborhood. Every individual persecuted or punished unjustly will cause the average citizen to have but little respect for the law. It has come to be an open question as to whether even the death penalty is as potent a deterrent of crime as it is represented to be. Secretary of State Kellog may mean what he says, but he does not always say what he means, if the newspaper men have correctly quoted him. A good-time mother will rear good-time children. It will take a lifetime to eliminate the trait and this is equally as true with reference to laziness and industry. Send is your name as a subscriber for The Planet. While it does not have as much in its columns as some journals we have in mind, what it has will interest you. A writer says that women are no worse than the men make them. We do not know so much about that. Some of these men the women choose are so "no count" and worthless that they are not capable of making anything. Some people believe in signs and in good luck. Both will help if the person practices industry and upright living. Sitting upon the "stool of do-nothing" will be sure to bring a bad sign and bad luck. You can prove either contention by trying it out for yourself. Women are coming to be like the department store windows, when they are ready for company. They are built over and made up. After the men marry them, they are so disgusted that they "cuss" loudly and sometimes break up. Then begins the march to the court-room where tired judges listen to their troubles. The most flourishing institutions in this country today are the jails and penitentiaries and the inmates are being safely housed and fed there at the expense of the working classes of the nation. The work of reformation should begin at the cradle and it could end at the doorway to the mills, factories and other places of employment in these United States of America The discussion of the bus situation in this city, as it concerns colored people has been exhaustively dis- cussed in the Forum of the Richmond, Va, News Leader and the attitude of that newspaper as announced in its editorial columns is receiving hearty approval and support from the white people of this city, while the colored folks are looking on with amazement. That the masses of the white people should express such friendly interest in our welfare is gratifying. If left to their own inclinations and wishes, the self-respecting colored people would not ride on the street cars at all, although they have always known that they were within their rights in so doing. Those of us, who have remained and expect to remain in this section of the Southland are breathing a sigh of relief in noting this change in conditions. There are many other objectionable things taking place here which will ultimately be remedied and eliminated by the co-operation of the white and colored people of this community. For the present, we shall not advance any further argument or make any additional comment along this line. Certain it is that God rules in the affairs of men and He will bring all things right in His own time. LET OBJECTORS RUN THEIR OWN BUS LINES. SHE SAYS Sir....May I address this directly to "C. H. B." and "M. B. L. N." You and your ilk had better establish a private bus line for your own use! Itso blamed bad you can't ride in the same street car or bus with a colored person! Why don't you drive your own car if you are so fussy? But even then, I don't suppose you could do that much work unless you had a colored chauffeur! Its a wonder you and your kind would even ride in your own car when there is a Negro driving it! You are the "poor things"—and not the colored people, as "C. H. B." so slightly calls them. If to be a Southerner, one has to be so narrow-minded, so one-sided, so selfish, and so foolish "stuck" on ones self—to have such a foolish 'superiority complex,' I suppose you might call it—then thank God that I'm not a Southerner! I suppose both these people that hide behind the initials of "C. H. B." and "M. B. L. N." are either some crabby dyspeptic old maids, or else some conceited snobs that have a job in some insurance or real estate office downtown, and think they own the universe! I'll bet both of you go to church every Sunday and worship your God—the God that knows no color or creed! And then on Monday morning you "draws up your skirts" in horror, and say "unclean," because a Negro rode to work in the same car! How terrible! Why don't you put them all in jail, or exile them to Russia? Or kill them all off? Then you wouldn't be bothered! Oh piff! I only wish the News Leader could print exactly what I think of you and your kind—but it would be unprintable! Suppose a Frenchman, or a Swede or a Chinaman, or a Mexican was on the car or bus? I suppose you would object to the U. S. ambassador to that country! What if the people are black? A man is a man in the eyes of God whether he be black or white or yellow! The main trouble with you poor, ignorant, narrow-minded people is that you still think the Negro is nothing but a piece of private property to be kicked around as one chooses! You used to make the Negro do all your work for nothing now you don't like it because you have to do a few things yourself! A Negro is entitled to just as many rights as you or I. He has as much right to enjoy the conveniences a bus can give him, as you have! He P. O. Box 8, Westhampton, Va. is a "ree country, isn't it?

Many striking testi- monials from the Secretary of War and Army Officers of high rank and reputation are set forth in no unceraint terms. The following ringing words of Major General Bell, addressed to the famous "Buffaloes," the 367th Regiment, are typical of the high regard and respect of American and European officers for our colored troops. Every private in this regiment and most of the officers were Negroes. The General said:— "This is the best disciplined and best drilled and best spirited regiment that has been under my command at this cantonment. I predicted last fall that Colonel Moss would have the best regiment stationed here and you men have made my prediction come true. I would lead you in battle against any army in the world with every confidence in the outcome".

As a result, hunters from all parts of the country are going there to try their luck. Ducks of every variety —red heads, canvas backs, sprigs, pin tails, teals and so on —are flying to Corpus Christi this winter in greater numbers than ever before. The hunter gets up about an hour before daybreak. He has his choice of a number of hunting grounds, the big blinds on the reefs in Corpus Christi bay, the curving, reed-grown shore lines or the handy Flour Bluff, which is a scant 20 minutes drive from the city. A small boat with an outboard motor, with a bouquets, tobacco-chowing guide, can be rented along the water front. Into this climbs the hunter, and after sailing for a few miles he reaches the blinds. The guide, clad in hip boots and oil skins, clunks out and scatters the decoys about. The hunter takes up his shotgun and waits. Pretty soon the guide nudges him. A flight of ducks is coming along. The ducks see the decoys and swoop down to the water beside them. That is their fatal mistake. The hunter blazes away, and the flock carts up in haste, leaving several of their number living on the water.

These 500 girls — "the progressive girlhood of Montgomery Ward & Co. referred to them—broke breakfast at the big mall-order plant, being often consequently conducted through he many departments. G. Crandall, vice-president of the company was the active host to the girls and in a big roundup following the breakfast he addressed them telling them of Montgomery Ward & Co.'s deep interest in their welfare and that of the 4-H Farm Club.

This continues until the hunter has barged all the law allows him. Usually this doesn't take long.

"and it is an honor to have them all as our guests. The highly constructive work done by these girls should prove an inspiration to us all. and I know that Montgomery Ward & Co. feels a deep sense of pride in bringing the champions to the congress and exposition. Every community represented at the congress should be proud of its representatives who made such a commendable showing in the tests back home."

Thirteen years ago twelve leading physicians of my city treated me for Kidney trouble and gravel without the desired benefit. These doctors advised me to be operated on, as that was the only chance for me. I was advised to go and get some of L. J. Hayden's Herb Medicine and try before being operated on. I did so, and in twenty-four hours after using his medicines, I passed at least a half dozen gravel, some as big as large pea. Since that time I have not suffered with the gravel.

Bailey, Sr. who died one year ago, January 17, 1926: Nobody knows our longing. But few have seen us weep. We shed our tears with an aching heart. While others are sound asleep. We often sit and think of you When we are all alone. For memory is the only friend That grief can call its own. God took him home—it was His will. But in our hearts he is living still, He suffered lots and murmured not, We watched alma night and day, Until at last, with a broken heart, We saw him pass away. Wife and Children.

ELK CONVENTION The following letter was released by the New York News at the request of Judge Edward H. Henry, Exalted Ruler of Cato Lodge of Elks, Philadelphia. The letter is addressed to Editor Harris. My dear Mr. Harris: I learn that a letter has been sent to the New York lodges from Pittsburgh, in reference to a conference advertised to be held in that city which has for its object, the removal of the next Grand Lodge meeting of the I. B P. O. E of W. from New York City to Detroit, Michigan. At the Grand Lodge meeting in Cleveland in 1926, New York City was selected by an overwhelming vote as the meeting place of the next Grand Lodge in August, 1927. All good Elks, all loyal Elks will abide by the action of the Cleveland Grand Lodge meeting and are preparing to come to New York to make that convention the greatest and most successful in the history of the Order. A propaganda has been widely spread by those who wanted to defeat New York for the convention, that the so-called "Gratton Law", passed nearly twenty years ago, will prevent the Elks from holding their meeting in New York City. Personal investigation by me has convinced me that the malicious statement is utterly untrue. New York Elks are already making great preparations for the entertainment of their brother Elks and will spend in the neighborhood of $75,000 for the visiting Elks. I might add that both of the Philadelphia lodges are heartily in favor of meeting in New York and any statement to the contrary is false. Philadelphia Elks will only consider making an effort to get the convention when the New York Elks acknowledge officially their inability to hold it. I make this statement to set at rest the minds of those who might be misled because the letter already referred to has included my name with a number of others, who have at no time authorized the use of their names. Furthermore, my name was presented as chairman of that conference without my authorization Yours for the New York Convention. Judge EDWARD W. HENRY, Exalted Ruler of O. V.

INSURANCE COMPANY MISSOURI PINE BOULEVARD FAULKNER JUMPS BAIL (Continued from page 1) grandmother, Mrs. Ella Moore. She had come to the city to visit her daughter, Mrs. Temple McClain, who resides at 526 E. 15th Street, South Richmond. KEPT HER CLOTHES Mrs. Moore said she and her grand daughter lived in North Carolina, near Rocky Mount. She arrived at the Broad Street Station sooner than her daughter expected her, else she would have met her at the station. Faulkner took her and and her daughter in his car and carried them to South Richmond. He kept Beach Moore's clothes in the car. He told her that he knew a white family who wanted a girl and it would be a good home for her. He promised the girl's grandmother that he would bring her back, if she secured the job and he would bring her back if she did not get it. BECAME UNEASY The evening changed to night and Beachy Moore had not returned and all of them got uneasy and finally decided to report the matter to the police. She had come to visit her daughter and had brought her grand daughter with her. They did not expect to remain here long. Beachy, who is well-grown, is of dark complexion and of medium build. She looks to be about 18 years of age and is apparently well developed. She said that Faulkner took her back to the station and kept her in the car, while he was hauling other passengers to their destinations. THE COLORED WOMAN'S HOUSE. Then when it became dark, he took her out to a colored woman's house. This woman had one child there. She got tired and sleepy and the woman showed her to a room and she went to bed. In the morning, before day, Faulkner returned and took her out in his car into the woods, where she said he accomplished his purpose in the car. He then carried her to Westbrook Sanitarium, where he left her. Faulkner has moved out of his residence at 712 N. Fifth Street. It is said that his wife has returned to her people in North Carolina. David Adams and Mrs. Lillian Faulkner are on the bond for $2,500. This amount is to be forfeited if Faulkner is not apprehended and returned for trial here. $5.00 REWARD OFFERED I would like to find out something about the whereabouts of my brother, James Roberson who lived in Richmond, Va., many years. He left a few years ago and went to Oklahoma where he bought oil lands in 1922. He returned to Richmond and it is reported that he died there several months ago. If any one can give me any information concerning my brother's whereabouts or of one G. W. or H. W. Williams who was associated with him I will give said party $500. Address his sister, MISS ELLA ROBERSON, Genevieve Delvery, Dunnellon, Fla. VIRGINIA - In the Circuit Court of Chesterfield County, the 17th day of January, 1927. BERTHA BROWN .....
