Turbulent Election Day Violent Clash in Holland Missouri
On November 6 in Holland Missouri two white men were killed and two Negroes were critically wounded as election day violence erupted. A white man Horace Ferrell 33 and an unidentified Black man were slain as a car carrying Black voters was approached by a gunmen group. Ferrell’s father John E Ferrell and Clarence Posey white farmer were critically wounded. Reports say the attackers sought to prevent Negroes from voting and beat several Black residents. The violence comes after a string of anti Negro demonstrations sparked by the earlier killing of Dave Martin near Sikeston. Three Black men were arrested and allegedly confessed to the Martin slaying and were later moved to other jails amid mob threats.
