Four Young Teens 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.
