as possible for q few days, doubtless some

MURDER AND LYNCH LAw.-Col. Wait Hert,
ofAIabama, and Mr.. Boon, of Cherokee CO.., Texas,
were murdered In Montgomery county, Texas,
few weeks since, by G. G. Hall, young man aged
% years. Hall had some negroes of Boon's In his
possession, which he could acquire by killing him.
The Houston Telegraph says:
Under the pretext that a valuable negro boy OF
q on's very III At his (Ha's) house, a fact af
ferwards ascertained to he false, Hall induced
Huntsville, in The direction of Montgomery. Al
though still quite unwoli, Boon started, accOmpa-
MED by COl. Hart, In his (B.'s) buggy. On their
way down Hall shot Boon from behind, instantly
killing him, and afterwards, at two shots, killing
Col Hart. He then removed the bodies for some
distance to a ravina, where he buried them ne It
day, both in one grave, where they were found and
identified. The non-retuEn of B. and h to CheTO-
kee and their apparent silence, first attracted
tention among their friends, several Of whom came
down to see about them
From what they heard they at once suspected
their fate, and Hall having shown forged bills of
sale to the negroes left with him by Boon they
caused lis arrest and at once set about an invest
gatinn to ct at the truth, Hall in the meantime be-
Ing confined in the Huntsville Jail. general in
terest having been excited, the whole country in
the vicinity of the place where the murder was
done turned out in the search, and It was not long
before the grave found, the bodies disinterred
and identified. The miserable outlaw seemed ut
terly destitute of anything resembling caution. He
is known to have brought his gun part of the way,
leaving it IN the road, and to have discharged his
revolver when In Huntsville and reloading it before
leaving, to have TAX Mr.. boon's buggy to Mont
gomery to have II repaired, and TO have borrowed
spade in The neighborhOod with which to inter the
bodies. In short there was not the aintesf shadow
Of L doubt of the guilt of the hardened wretch.
Hall, day before yesterday, was arraigned before
E quires Rogers aid hobfnson, of Walker county,
but the appe airing that the crime was done in
NJ sntgomery county, the Justice ordered him
thither In charge of a strong guard. Yesterday he
started in charge of Sheriff Marsfelder and some
twenty persons hfs posse. This morning, we
learn, that, as the Sheriff was on his way down,
he was waylaid near tue scene of the dreadful
tragedy and forcibly deprived of his prisoner by
from 100 to 900 armed and d eterm:ued men, who
executed the wretch on the spot where his victims
lay.
Hal made u full confession; said how he had
taken their lives. what he had taken from theal,
and the disposition made of it. He gave orders to
have the negroes and money TO be given up to Boons
family. TN the ,llows the culpdt said: "Bad
