FLOGGING SENTENCES HIT ALABAMA KLAVERN CASES
In Oneonta on August 8, five more men pleaded guilty to whippings linked to the Jefferson Calloway incident. Each fined $500 and sentenced to about six months in jail, with Dr L A Fennell spared actual confinement. Earlier, Eugene Boss and L A Clayton drew eight to ten years for kidnapping, marking a rare Alabama conviction in such cases. Investigators tied the flogging to members of the Tarrant City Ku Klux Klan who struck Calloway for attending church while intoxicated.
