time his body was found in a field
near Wilson, and that he believes
the policeman was a member of the
party which attacked the Carroll
home, a short distance from Wilson.
It was learned definitely today
that Carroll had received numerous
threatening letters warning him to
leave the neighborhood at once and
accusing him of selling booze in the
oil fields nearby.
AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. J7.
"Human life is becoming too
cheat) in ttlto country." declared
Rev. W. J. Ward in the services
conducted over the body of
Peeler Clayton, taxicab driver,
who was killed Thursday night
near a building in which the
Austin Ku Klux Klan is believed
to hold its weekly meetings.
"Due In part, perhaps, to the
war, human life is as cheap as
dirt," Rev. Ward said.
"There should be some sort of
campaign instituted against the
rapid growth of the most hein-
ous of crimes."
The motive tor the killing of
Clayton is still unsolved. A
court of inquiry will be con-
ducted Monday.
Practically all of the nineteen
citizens against whom charges
were filed in connection with
the murder, have been arrested
and are out on bonds of $5,000
each.
