Tito fearful work of a frenzied mob

Edgar Rice, a policeman, Saturday
night, has aroused the greatest indlg~
nation in this communtiy and every-
thing possible will be done to bring to
justice the ringlcudcrs of the mob.
That an aituir could occur in a Quaker
hommuuity like tltat in Chester county

oi‘ lynching, but with the driornlina-

him to tho (‘oatosrillo boapiiai.
