Albemarle, June 9 (AP)—The case of N.C. Cranford, alleged “convict-whipping foreman,” was postponed in Stanly Superior Court today until the July term.
The former superintendent of the county convict system is charged with shipping three negro prisoners to the point of death, it being alleged that they died later as the result of the punishment.
