Four Young Teens
1918
Recorded by the Anti-Lynching Crusaders...
In 1918, Dr. E. L. Johnston, a white planter, was killed
and a colored boy was suspected of the deed. He was suspected because two
colored girls, sisters, were working for Dr. Johnston and both were
pregnant by the doctor. The boy was engaged to the older girl. A mob took the
two girls, the boy and the boy's fifteen year old brother to a bridge and
hanged them.
