...last Aug. 14 while picketing three stores in nearby Fort Deposit that allegedly discriminate against Negroes. Jailed in Hayneville, the workers were abruptly released without bond a week later, on the same day that their cases were transferred to federal court. Shortly afterward, in front of the red frame Cash Store two blocks from the courthouse, the two men of the cloth were felled by two shotgun blasts. Daniels died instantly; Morrisroe was critically wounded in the back...
...defense introduced a paperback book found on Daniels' body, Meyer Levin's The Fanatic. And as a clincher, Defense Attorney Vaughan Hill Robison waved the dead seminarian's maroon undershorts in the courtroom: they looked red and, he said, "smell of urine."

I turned from cold stares and fixed my gaze on a sign over the counter. "ALL <CASH RECEIVED FROM SALE TO NIGGERS WILL BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE UNITED KLAN OF AMERICA." I read it again and again, nausea rising swiftly and savagely as the suspicious counter boy spilled coffee over the cup. It was lousy coffee.
