- Four Hanged by a Mob. MONTGOMERY, Ala., June 18.-A tele- phone from Wetumpka states that four of the prisoners taken from the jail there Thursday night were hung Friday morning at a point ten miles from Wetumpka and three miles from the scene of the crime. The four were Sol Jackson, Lewis Spier, Jesse Thompson and Camp Reese. The troops from here did not succeed in locating the prisoners, as the country is hilly. rough and wooded. The most of the night and Friday morning were spent in a sort of trial investigating the crime and getting at the guilty ones.
