<div dir="auto"></div>
<div dir="auto">Elkton, Ky., June 15– Todd county officials tonight were investigating the lynching early today of Primus Kirby, 26, negro, on the Guthrie road. Quiet prevailed here tonight.<br /><br /></div>
<div dir="auto"></div>
<div dir="auto">Coroner MacBell, who conducted a brief inquest, said the identity of none of the members of the mob was disclosed. Judge S.P. Slaughter said the county grand jury, which convened the second Monday in July, would investigate the case.<br /><br /></div>
<div dir="auto"></div>
<div dir="auto">Kirby was taken from county officers near Guthrie today, after he had shot and seriously wounded Ed Bringhurst, a railroad employe [sic] who had been deputized to arrest in arrasting [sic] the nergo [sic]. The mob, variously estimated between 15 and 250, hanged the negro and fired several shots into his body.

<div dir="auto"></div>
<div dir="auto">Bringhurst, who was wounded in the stomach, was taken to a Clarksville, Tenn., hospital, where it was said tonight he had an even chance to recover. His ife [sic], a French war bride, and their four year old son, were scheduled to sail for America tomorrow from France, where they had been visiting her relatives.<br /><br /></div>
<div dir="auto"></div>
<div dir="auto">L.L. Weakly, one of the officers from whom the negro was taken, was the only witness at the inquest. He said the men were masked and that he did not recognize any of them. </div>

<strong>ANOTHER NEGRO LYNCHED</strong>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Kentucky Citizens Take Fratus Warfield From Jail and Hang Him.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shortly after 12 o’clock Thursday morning, Fratus Warfield, a negro, 23 years of age, was taken from the county jail by a mob and hanged at Elkton, Ky. Tuesday the negro went to the home of a young white farmer, about three miles from Elkton, and finding no one at home but the wife and her little babe, attempted to frighten her into letting him into the house. He did not succeed in getting in, and after trying to break in the door and threatening to kill her, he went away.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Warfield was captured Wednesday and placed in jail. During the night a mob of about 150 men overpowered the jailor and getting the keys quietly took the prisoner to a grove near town, where he was found hanging to a limb in the morning.</span></p>
