RACES: Pig & Holly
Fortnight ago two Negroes, Pig Lockett and Holly White, held up a white couple on the highroad near De Kalb, Miss., took from them $45. Last week feeling in De Kalb ran high against Pig and Holly. Therefore two policemen put them in an automobile, started to transfer them to Scooba, Miss, for a preliminary court hearing. Townsmen intercepted the motor, bound the policemen to trees, hanged Pig and Holly from other trees — 14th and 15th lynchees of the year.
Last week county officials had started no legal action against the lynchers, Mississippi's Governor Theodore Gilmore Bilbo had issued no statement.
