the soldiers to take him prisoner. They
informed him that taking prisoners"
was played out. They then placed him
upon stump in front of file of soldiers,
and at the word Of command eight bullets
pierced the body Of the rebel, killing him
instantly.
Thus has ended the career of notori-
ous bushwhacker and outlaw. He has
met the just retribution of his damning
crimes.-Hdnni6al Herald, June lOM.
