Sometime before Xmas - one of the young Potters got into a difficulty with a Mr. Church and the latter recieved a wound from which he died, Potter left, but a detective by the name of Jerls got on his track and captured him! and landed I him in Watauga jail, where he now is. Jerls also has a war rant j for Enoch Potter, the leader of the band, there being $200 reward for his capture, and this roused the whole Pot ter generation. They, threat ened to rescue their pal from jail, and a guard was placed at the jail by the sheriff. They also decided that Jerls should diej and brought in some of their pals from Kentucky, a mong them being some of the fellows who made a raid on Mountain ' City, Tenn., some time since. But Jerls was not frightened away. On the night of the 12th, Jerls put up for the night at Henry Mains on North fork. About 10 o'clock the Potter crowd surroundejd the house and be gan firing upon it. Jerls ' and Mains returned the fire, . and the shooting was - kept up . till about 50 shots were fired. Jerls received a .wound through a crack:, recieving.38 shot holes in his breast As soon as the firing ceased physicians were called in, who dressed the wound and he is recovery. Upon receiving information of this the sheriff summoned a posse of -150 or 200 men, in com mand of Capt. Lovill, J. .E. Finley and W. rB. Council, and started ; in pursuit.
