A BRK E OF CARO LIVI AJW. Truth Stranger than Fletlit Who tr ThtM Men? Opklooas, La., October 20tb, 1883. To bis Excellencr, T. J. Jarvis, G OTernor of North CsToIirm; " Rl eigh, N. C. Dear Sir: My object in ad4teiB8, icg to yoivttus comrnunicftUsja i ..if: possible, to establish the iciefltfty of an indiyidaal now confined fc our parish jail, and viho I have reason to belieTe hails from ; yoitr,. . Stwte. -About two years ago two young men, calling themselves respectively Moore and Wilson arrived in 'the parish of St' Klartin in this State. Remaining there a few months they came to this parish, where they assumed the names of Woods and Scott. They located in an out of the way secluded spot, in the Atchafalaya swamp, in the extreme southern . part of . the parish, where they followed wood chopping for an occupation. In the latter part of July of the present year, both being sick with malarial fever, they left the swamp and went to the Belle Cherie Springs, in ? the north western part of the parish, where they assumed the names of W. B Brown Riid .J. T. Lane. I was at the springs and-was thrown in con tact with them- They rented a room, bad their own cooking utensils and did their own cooking; .associated but little with the visitors at the springs, but seemed to be (juiet. gen teel men. I next heard of them on the 25th of eptember. On that day. Lane, the younger of the two, com mitted a fiendish and most atrocious murder in this parish, lie and his friend Brown started immediately to leave the country. Two gentlemen living in the vicinity of the scene bf the murder, armed with pistols, mounted their horses and pursued them. The two men, seeing they were pursued, turned on their pur suers, and each drawing a pair of re volvers drove them back, telling them to inform all parties, private citizens and officers alike, that they never intended to be captured alive.. On the following day C. C. Dnson, sheriff of this parish, armed with, a bench warrant from ray court, ahd accompanied by two of his most reli able deputies, started in pursuit of the fugitives. On the evening of the 2Sth he came up with them- in the adjoining parish. They made a most desperate residance. Land was fi nally shot through the left breast by the sheriff, in the immediate region of the heart. Supporting himself against ia tree he continued to fire until his finger stifffjaed sq that he could no longer pull the trigger of his pistol. lie then surrendered and died almost instantly, -Iis pompan " ion, Brown, thugh badly'wounded in the hand, did not cease to fire un til Lane fell, Hf then surrendered and throwing himself on the body of his dying friend, passionately kissed his lips time and again, and then turning to the sheriff piteously treated him to shoot him, and bury him with Lane. Brown then and there, in reply to a question put to him by the sheriff, said tba he an4 Lane were fjrst cousins, and that they came from near Asheville, N. C. Inquiry by telegraph of the sheriff of that county, was answered that Brown was unknown there. Brown since his incarceration has been very reticent, and will tell nothing either of his own or 'Lane's past history further than that h,e is f jpom North Carolina. Today I am informed that when they first arrived in the State they also claimed to be from yonr btate, received letter? theyefia, and Vere always talking about the deeds and the exploits of tke Redmond band of outlaws of Nrtb Carolina. Both: these men had evidently been 'great criminals before their advent in our State, and they were certainly two of the most reckless desperadoes who have ever appeared in south .western Lousiana! ', When Lane qom niitted the murder in this parish on the 25th of September, 3gTPw? ?een8, not to haye been connected with it. He was not eyen present, hence here, he can be held , only as apcessorj : after the fact, which, under o.nr stat ute is simply a misdemeanor. In the adjoining parish he can be held only for resisting arrest, one of our low grades of felony. We are not only anxious to know something e$ he past historv of tbese men,but espec ' faliy are we anxious, if . possible, to establish Brown's identity, so that he may be called to account in some of our Iristers States, for rimes commit te before lie arrived in our State. With ft view to this, the sherift' lias caused descriptions to be published i in the Sunday New Orleans Time Democrat and Picoyuve for one month from October 18th, in hopes they may meet the eye of some officer who will recognize in Brown an out law fugitive from jfustice. I append descriptions of both men, and res pectfully request your excellency, should there have been in your State a band of outlaws known as the 'Redmbnd gang,' to forward to the officers of the county in which they operated, and request themu to , cor respond with C. C. Dnson, sheriff of St. Landry parish, La., or myself at this placej Opelousas, La. I beg your Excellency's pardon for thus trespassing on your attention. My only excuse for so doing is le cause as a Southern man, and an officer deeply interested in the main tenance of l iw and order. I consider I am discharging a religions 'duty in trying to ferret out these two men and ascertain something about them. I am Yonr Excellency's Obedient Servant, Geo. W. HcnsfETH. Jndge 13th Judicial District, La. Description of J. T Scott, alias Wilson alias J T Lace, wh9 was killed by the sheriff while resisting arrest on the 1 8th of September 1883: He elaitned to be from A she vi lie. N.C, and to be 27 ytars old, was 5 fet 11 inches high, weighed about 135 pondsjj was spare and slender built,! wore & No. 8 shoe, dark sandy hair and thin sandy beard each hair standing almost separate and showing the skin plainly very thin and sandy eq&t&ehe, scarcely any in the centre of the lip under the nose; his teeth were good and his lips thin. He seemed to be tolerably well edu cated, talked but little, spoke plainly and distinctly with a little drawl and was polite, especially to females, ; W. B. Brown alias W. B. Wood alias Moore, who is now in jail, and claims, to be a North Carolinian, says he is 29 (but looks to be 85) years old. He is about 5. feet .8 inches high, weighs about 150 pounds, has dark btown hair and beard, clear, brown,' pfereing eyes, with a stolid, determined expression, heavy set. -wears about a No. 7 shoe, is well built, his forehead broad a,nd. eyes wide apart-his teeth are good, he speaks slowly and deliberately with a lengthened accent, and has an unu sually low, mild and gentle voice, and seems to be a. Eftan of more than ordinary intelligence. Ik TMiiiir'RmT" CIorf( prpMly Kw Bruc Jonnigl . We publish below the correspon dence between Col. I. J.

'Very respectfully 1. J. Youx, Collector. New Bkkxe, N. C , Oct '83 Col. I. J. Youxe, liALKlfeiH, N. C.: Sumr letter of the 1 6 of Oato ber, notifying me that "Hon- J. E. O'Hara has ja&t been to see me (you) and insists on your (icy) removal and that 1 (yon) shall appoint Mi. Palmer your (my) successor, etc.," ha just been received and its contents care fully noted. In reply, I would say, that Mr. O'Hara is. not my master, but am truly sdrry to learn that you are his slave- The appointment of my successor is none of my business, I shall therefore lose no sleep on that subject. My removal from the office of deputy collector is a matter in which the public take but little interest, ami yet it is possible that when the community at large under stands the motive that prompted my removal from office, it would not be out of place to enquire into the cause In the last political campaign, -as usual, a convention of the Uwpubiir can party assembled at Wilsen, N. C , in this Congres sional district, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for Congress, and while said eonveu-. tiou was ia session : a mob took cuarge of that body wd proclaimed r. O'Har-Aitii nominee. -He being a man of notorious public retard, I did not vote for him. rhu .the public can se why he demanded nay removal, and Col. Young, the slave of this creature of aecidebt, says I "must go." You say iD your letter removing me, " that yon hojie that myself and friends will 'appreciate yonr position and the partiality yom have shown me by retention so long against the demands and wish of 4 Oar M. C, "so loag." Did you ever ga to school? I huve been a deputy collector under you for three months "so long," and you a col lector for fifteen years "so loag" ' against the demands and wish" of a large majority of the good people of this State '"so long." Yen were ' kind enough to inform Me in said letter that 'you deem me a good officer" and "will gladly give me the chance to resign." For such mag nanimity, Col Young, I feel very grateful, and trust some day to be able to reciprocate your kindness, fn saying that you "deem me a good officer" you could not have truthfully said less, for I have always, as an humble citizen, as well as an officer, tried to do my whole duty, and thank God the good citiaens who know me best will sny as m'ich, "so long." Col is it the policy of this govern ment to remove from office those of its public servants who are "deezaed good officers," in the face of Civil Serviee Reform, It not, why has collector O'Hara removed one whom you "deemed a good officer?" ("so long"; for no other reason than that "Our M, C your master, a creature of a mob, orgunized for the sole purpose of "sending a negro to Congrees," Although I am a colored man, thank God, I have never worshipped at the shrine of color. You have grown gray in the service of your country ("so long'") -'especially since the Republican cow has been giring milk ia this State, (1868) and the teat would have been pulled out of your mouth before now, but I suppose that you were, "deemed a good officer," therefore allowed to suck the old Republican eow until she is dry, ("so long') Cel. you say in year letter, that yoa hoped, that "tinse would soften him" O'Hara, your master. Why, was he too hard for you, would he not allow you to make your own appointments? Did he require you to clean his boots? i ot why did you hope that time would . 'soften him," ("so" long") Col., you take so much in terest in the negro, 0'Hra, I wonder that you not a delegate to the Col. ored natiojftal oonveniion, and be in your place ready to hold the hat of Mr Kred Duglas when he was mak ing his big mixed school and social equality speech, for he bfclongs to that "wing, of your party that "Our M. Q," your master, belongs to. I am in darkness and desire light, will you he kind enough to inform me and. the public whether 1 am a deputy collector under Isaac J. O'Hara or James E. Q'You,ng? for j anno& fcerye two master?, ("so long.") You say, and you "yet feel if patience and ferbearance prevail on my part .and my friend', that all different a ! mav 1a healed etc.. ("so Ion'?." What .the world do you know about patieace? that's a creature u knowa te yo; except, possibly, she has ceased to be a virtue on account f her forbearance with you as an offiee holder "so long," Col , we'i1 meet soi-A y in convention yon say ia yoar letter that you would be "glad te talk personally with me" well I keep bouse at the same place ; any boy for a dime will show you ray gat "sw long," but as a friend I won Itl u lrise job not to talk too ranch Jast yet, for you'll have plentj of talking l do before too are e!cctci . to Congress "so 'long'. t)b. by the way 'w bat about those six special deputies which the Department allow you to appoint for two months?
