    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Williams Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hkB.2ACE/5881 Message Board Post: Cameron Herald – Thur., 20 Oct 1902 Death - Miss Pearl Williams was run-over and killed by a Sap freight train, or it was supposed she was run-over by the train, about 2 a.m. on Monday night of last week in the Minerva community. Deputy Sheriff Boles went over the next day but learned nothing. The report was the deceased and her mother had lost some money and were up at that late hour in search for it fearing that if they waited until daylight someone else might find it. They found the money and were on their way home when Mrs. Williams stopped on the track to pick some grass burrs from her dress, her daughter, taking a seat on the track nearby. Soon the freight train came and Mrs. Williams moved out of danger, while her daughter remained on the track and was killed. Report is that she had probably gone to sleep. The story as reported was hardly a reasonable one and the Galveston News of last Thursday contained an item from Rockdale which quoted: “The 13-year old daughter of Mr. Williams, who lives nea! r Minerva, 6-miles north of Rockdale was killed this morning by being struck by a freight train on the San Antonio & Aransas Pass railway. The child’s mother, in passing over the road, had lost a sum of money and sent the little girl to hunt for it. It is supposed the child was so absorbed in hunting for the money she did not notice the train until it was so close on her that she could not get out of the way. There is a sharp curve in the road near the crossing where the accident occurred, so the engineer did not see the child in time to give warning.” In addition to the above, a later report sent from Rockdale stated: “At the inquest held by Justice Kennon, of this place, on the body of little Williams girl who, it was reported, was killed by a freight train near Minerva, 6-miles north of here yesterday morning, it developed there was evidence of foul play. The facts show she was killed and placed on the tracks for the purpose of concealing the crime! . The grand jury will investigate.”

Barton was tried first and he confessed his guilt. He was returned to jail. In the afternoon of the same day, Wesly was tried and he too confessed. Both were sentenced to hang in 30-days. The city was packed with a mob and both men were taken and hung on a telephone pole in the heart of the city and remained there until the next day. Hon. Wells Thompson, the district judge, telephoned Austin for state troops to preserve the peace when a mob began to assemble. Soon after, he was assured by the leaders of the mob that the law would be permitted to take its course and he countermanded his order for state troops. When the prisoners were lynched, he was mortified, claiming the citizens had not kept faith with him. The crime the men were charged was of the blackest nature, outrage and murder.
