The Danielsville Monitor December 23, 1910
Luverne, Ala.--The sheriff, with about twenty deputies went to the Salter home to 
arrest Ben Salter and his boys, negroes, who were charged with shooting Jack 
Shirley, Dave Shirley, Jesse Pate and I.F. Williamson. The sheriff found a 
citizens' posse at the Salter home, and was just in time to save the life of the 
old negro, Ben, who had been knocked on the head with a pistol. The old negro was 
rescued by the sheriff and taken to jail under heavy guard.
