Book excerpt: On Friday, July 13, 1906, fourteen-year-old Addie Lyerly descended the stairs of her Barber Junction, N.C. home and found her parents and one younger sibling bludgeoned to death with the butt of an axe. Her little sister, also injured, was barely alive, and the house had been recently set on fire. It was immediately and conveniently assumed that 5 black or mulatto tenant farmers and the wife of one had committed the crimes. Without ever going to trial, two men and one boy were convicted by a mob, stirred up by a racist press, and lynched near the railroad tracks in Salisbury, North Carolina. It was less than a month after the original murders. Although the mystery of who killed the Lyerlys remained unsolved at the time the first edition of A Game Called Salisbury was printed, Bill and Rachel James' new book, The Man From the Train, has shed new light on this case, perhaps providing the evidence that will fully exonerate Nease Gillespie, John Gillespie and Jack Dillingham, the three who were lynched on August 6, 1906. In the words of Yale History Professor, Glenda E. Gilmore, A Game Called Salisbury "pushes into the white South's darkest secrets" and exposes "the limits of justice under white supremacy."

Book excerpt: The definitive account of the lynching of twenty-three-year-old Matthew Williams in Maryland, the subsequent investigation, and the legacy of "modern-day" lynchings. On December 4, 1931, a mob of white men in Salisbury, Maryland, lynched and set ablaze a twenty-three-year-old Black man named Matthew Williams. His gruesome murder was part of a wave of silent white terrorism in the wake of the stock market crash of 1929, which exposed Black laborers to white rage in response to economic anxieties. For nearly a century, the lynching of Matthew Williams has lived in the shadows of the more well-known incidents of racial terror in the deep South, haunting both the Eastern Shore and the state of Maryland as a whole. In The Silent Shore, author Charles L. Chavis Jr. draws on his discovery of previously unreleased investigative documents to meticulously reconstruct the full story of one of the last lynchings in Maryland. Bringing the painful truth of anti-Black violence to light, Chavis breaks the silence that surrounded Williams's death. Though Maryland lacked the notoriety for racial violence of Alabama or Mississippi, he writes, it nonetheless was the site of at least 40 spectacle lynchings after the abolition of slavery in 1864. Families of lynching victims rarely obtained any form of actual justice, but Williams's death would have a curious afterlife: Maryland's politically ambitious governor Albert C. Ritchie would, in an attempt to position himself as a viable challenger to FDR, become one of the first governors in the United States to investigate the lynching death of a Black person. Ritchie tasked Patsy Johnson, a member of the Pinkerton detective agency and a former prizefighter, with going undercover in Salisbury and infiltrating the mob that murdered Williams. Johnson would eventually befriend a young local who admitted to participating in the lynching and who also named several local law enforcement officers as ringleaders. Despite this, a grand jury, after hearing 124 witness statements, declined to indict the perpetrators. But this denial of justice galvanized Governor Ritchie's Interracial Commission, which would become one of the pioneering forces in the early civil rights movement in Maryland. Complicating historical narratives associated with the history of lynching in the city of Salisbury, The Silent Shore explores the immediate and lingering effect of Williams's death on the politics of racism in the United States, the Black community in Salisbury, the broader Eastern Shore, the state of Maryland, and the legacy of "modern-day lynchings."

Excerpt: ... consolidated into one company and transferred to the 2d Regiment, to which Capt. B. was transferred as their commanding officer, and served some months in that regiment. After the war he was made U. S. Inspector and settled in Richmond, Va. He d. suddenly, of apoplexy, July 26, 1880. The Richmond Dispatch says of him: "Capt. B. was widely known, much respected and greatly beloved. He came to us fresh from service in the Union army, as an officer in the internal revenue service, and soon became very popular in business and social relations. He was a man of very brilliant talents, a popular speaker, and a poet of much merit; he was also prominent as a politician, but never offensively so. On Confederate Memorial Day he delivered the address at Oakwood cemetery, which was replete with tender feeling and patriotism. Genial, warm-hearted, sympathetic, all who came within the range of his acquaintance seemed irresistibly drawn towards him. Few men--certainly none of northern birth and of his political opinions -- ever had more numerous or more sincere friends among all classes of the community. * * * The news of his death was soon circulated, and his body lying in state at St. Alban's hall was visited by a large number, among all of whom pervaded a feeling of great sorrow, at the untimely ending of a career that promised so brightly." Of this old family, now almost extinct in town, it may be said their virtues were of the plain old-fashioned sort; loyal to country and kin, strong in their attachments, modest, brave, industrious, kind and unselfish; generous to friend or foe, hospitable -- never seeking official position. The first generation served long and faithfully, from a sense of duty, in the early Indian and French wars; the second and...
