on a Christmas night, two young Negro men came knocking frantically on the Morrisons' door. They had been accused of molesting a white women, and, not knowing what to do, they sought advice from Mr. Morrison's father, who was known to be strong and wise. Before they could finish telling their story, however, the notorious "night men...swept down like locusts" on the house, setting the house on fire and killing anyone they could get their hands on.
