Paul Guihard:

Guihard had been at Jackson but left to go for Oxford that day. A white, angry mob had been waiting for the arrival of James Merideth. Merideth was already safe inside his dorm room with 300 federal marshals stationed around the main building. Around 8 p.m. the mob had gotten angry and started throwing bottles, rocks, and bricks. The marshals responded with tear gas then the whites started using guns. Approximatly an hour later Guihard was found dead outside a girls dorm with a bullet to the back.

The next day nearly 200 pepole had been arrested. The weapons were confiscated.

Guihard was buried in Saint Malo, France on October 5th. A Memorial servie followed in New York. This memorial service was attended by U.S and Frencials. The Mississippi student newspaper set up a scholorship fund in Guihard's name.

Quote:

"It is in these moments you feel distance of a century between Washington and the segregationist of the South... The Civil War has never ended."
