At the time when undercover
agent John Saunders settled in
the Scuffletown area in order
to win the Indians’ trust and
confidence, there was a $2,000
bounty on Henry Berry Low
ry’s head and a $1,000 bounty
each for Stephen and Thomas
Lowry, Boss Strong, Hender
son Oxendine and George
Applewhite. Legislature was
passed 1871-1872 which raised
the bounty to $12,000 for
Henry Berry, dead or alive;
$6,000 for each of the others
mentioned above; and $5,000
for Andrew Strong who was a
late-comer to the gang not
joining until the latter part of
1870.
In July of 1870 Saunders once
again
wrote New Hanover
County Sheriff Schenck, his
contact man. He informed the
carpet bagger that he could
have gotten James Locklear
and Ste\(e Lowry but he let
them go not be satisfied with
anything less than the entire
gang. He had also learned that
George Applewhite was living
in South Carolina about 25
miles distance ftx>m Scuffle-
town. The former slave and
member of the Lowry Gang
oftentimes visited his wife and
children in Scuffletown. It was
about this time Saunders
began a school for the Indian
children in the Scuffletown
area. His letter also informed
Schenck that many times he
would take a bottle of whisky
and visit certain Indian homes.
Through this fashion, he was
able to obtain some very
valuable Information about the
Lowry Gang. It was probably
in this manner he learned the
information about George Ap
plewhite living in -South Caro
lina. He further informed
Schenck that he was more
confident of success than ever.
Believing that he had finally
succeeded in winning the
confidence of the Indians and
the Lowry Gang, he held a
meeting with the Lowry Gang.
He reminded Henry Berry and
his gang that the authorities
were closing in on them and
thatr they could not avoid
capture indefinitely. Acting
the part of a friend to the
Indians, he persuaded the
Gang to load up their families
and belongings and strike out
for Mexico. The undercover
■agent agreed to drive the
wagon, explaining that they
would not be as apt to be
suspected and caught with a
white driving the wagon for
them. Tired of being constant
ly on the run, Henry Berry and
the Gang agreed.
Saunders had made arrange
ments with Schenck to have
the Lowry Gang members and
their families intercepted and
arrested in Georgia. The trap
seemed to be fool proof. On
November 19. 1970 at least
one wagon was loaded and
ready for the long and hazard
ous journey. Thewagon was to
leave at dark. The gang had
become suspicious, however,
and the trip was postponed
indefinitely.
Continued next week.
