[Bill Hnnt photo} Three students, Donnie Ox endine, Geanice Ransom, and Rhonda Jones and their advi sor, Mrs. MifiamEdwards.are going to represent the Health Careers Club from Pembroke Senior High School at the Health Careers National Con vention to be held in Arlington Texas on Nov. 11. 12, 13th. It will be the first time representatives from the Pem broke chapter have attended a national convention on career exploration in their two years of existence. The purpose of the club is to bring together young people interested in careers in health in order to share their interests to explore ' the opportunities and challenges in the health occupational fields and to learn about professional and community life in which they soon will participate as infor med citizens. The eight most constant members of the Lowry Gang were now faced with the problem of what to do with Saunders, the undercover agent hired by local wealthy whites of Robeson County to infiltrate the ranks of the Lowry Gang and their sym pathizers. They were: Henry Berry Lowry, quite naturally the leader; Stephen Lowry, Henry Berry’s older brother and possessor of the vilest temper of all the gang mem bers; Thomas Lowry, also Henry Berry’s brother, al though, quite the opposite of Stephen he was the quiet type; Boss Strong, Henry Berry’s brother-in-law (Rhoda’s brother) who was Henry Ber ry’s right-hand man and most likely Henry Berry’s successor as gang leader in the advent that something was to happen to Henry Berry; Andrew Strong, Boss’ brother and the newest member of the Gang; Henderson Oxendine, related to Henry Berry by marriage and the only member of the Lowry Gang to be tried and executed (was hung in the Lumberton jail yard); George Applewhite, a former slave who was married to a daugh ter of Jack Oxendine’s; and Zach McLaughlin, a white of Scottish descent who was raised among the Indians of the Scuffletown area. Andrew Strong (the newest member), and Tom Lowry (the meekest), were in favor of releasing the ex Boston police man and ordering him to leave the county, an option Saun ders was most agreeable to. Throughout the ordeal the undercover cop assured Henry Berry and the other members that he would leave the area and never bother them again if released. Henry Berry and Stephen, the two most aggres sive members were in favor of executing Saunders. Henry Berry argued that Saunders’ scheme whereby the whole gang, along with their fami lies, were to be intercepted somewhere in Georgia, en dangered the lives of the families of the Gang members. Saunders gave Andrew his pen knife for trying to save his life after trying unsuccessfully to cut his wrist. Andrew told Saunders that he pitied him for he had just recently been in the presence of death him self and therefore knew what he was going through. The incident of which Andrew was referring was the recent murder of Malcolm Sanderson at which time Andrew manag ed to untie his hands and flee thusly escaping the same fate as Sanderson. The gruesome experience was still fresh in his mind. Andrew Strong and Tom Lowry were unable to per suade the other members to spare Saunders’ life. Andrew was successful, however, in persuading the more adamant members to allow the white undercover agent to take his own life. George Applewhite had some tablets in his possession that he believed to be arsenic. They gave Saunders one and after witnessing Saunders swallow the supposedly arsenic tablet waited three full days. To their dismay and utter astonish ment, the huge Nova Scotian seemed healthier than before he swallowed the pill. Hen derson Oxendine, in his sup posed 1 confession before he was hung in the jail yard in Lumberton, related that Saun ders was stubborn and proud throughout the 3 day ordeal. On Wednesday the gang realized that Saunders had failed once again at commit ting suicide. The gang untied their white prisoner and carried him a short distance into the swamps. They gave the con demned man an hour to pray. While the bulky Nova Scotian prayed, Tom Lowry anck An drew Strong stepped back about two or three hundred feet refusing to witness or take part in the gruesome task of executing Saunders. The remaining members drew highest card to see who would be called upon to play the part of executioner. Ste phen Lowry drew highest card. He allowed Saunders to write a final letter to his wife, after- which he blindfolded the un dercover cop and tied him to a tree. He then emptied both barrels of his shot gun into the body of the ex-policemai| The The whole gang, including the hard-nosed Stephen Low ry, were emotionally affected. The bulky undercover detec tive had won the respect and admiration of the gang be cause of the proud manner in which he conducted himself throughout the terrible ordeal. Henry Berry later said “The efficiency and morale of my men” compelled him to have Saunders killed. If he had not killed Saunders, he argued, then he “would not have the right to kill John Taylor or any of the rest.” Andrew Strong remained be hind after Saunders was killed. He wrapped the body in his own blanket and clasped the hands together, afterwards giving the bulky and cour ageous undercover cop as decent a burial as possible. Strong then sent Saunders’ wife the letter and a picture taken from his personal ef fects. Following the hanging of Henderson Oxendine, a party of men led by Major Thomas and Lieutenants Howe and Simpson followed the instruc tions left behind by Hender son and located the body of Saunders. The grave site was near Devil's Den located bej tween Inman’s Bridge and Back Swamp near the resi dence of Zach T. McLaugh lin. The remains were rein- terred in a coffin furnished by the sheriff of the county, Rhoderick McMillan who inci dentally was also involved in Saunders’ drawn-out scheme which culminated in his death.
