Mr. Editor:-
In looking over the last number of the
Gazette saw what purpOrted to be an ae-
count of the killing of Watkins, where it
was stated that WAS dunk, and that he
(Watkins) eudeavored to prevent me get
ling more Whisky-that being the cause of
his being shot. Now. sir, have toinform
you that the very reverse is the state of the
case. Mr. Watkins wished me to drink.
would not do so, hui eventually took Oys-
ters in the room of liquor. He then want
ed me again to drink, but l refused. He
then forced me to the place where our ac-
couLrements were placed fur the night, aud
commenced cutting me around, pulling and
Jerking me, and threatened to strike me. l,
told him was cripple, aud too small TO
fghtwith man of his size. and begged of
him to let me go-thNt bad a pass from
the Captain until four O'clock. The Or
DERBY Sergeant and LIST Corp oral assuring
him lhat stated the truth, still he con-
tinued the same usage Of me, when even-
tualiy shot him.
Others attached to tie company saw the
whole proceeding, and will attest to the
truth OF this statement.
