Greensboro Man Is Dead from Wounds

Greensboro, N.C., April 26—Robert L. Hinton, aged 26 years, formerly of Danville, Va., died at a local hospital this morning as a result of wounds received when he was stabbed here on March 19 by Ike McMillan, negro.

The negro, who worked at Pomona along with the white man, fled after the cutting but was soon run down by a posse of 10 citizens and turned over to a deputy sheriff. He has b een in jail under a charge of assault with deadly weapon, but the death today of Mr. Hinton automatically changed the charge to murder.
