MosBY's GUERRILLAs AT FALLs,
CHURCH

On Tuesday night, October II, party of
iushw whackers and horse thieves visited Falls
church, and, AFTER stealing several horses,
made their appearance at the house Of Mr.. John
y. Reed at O'Clock in the morning, about one
undred yards from the Falls Church hospital,
where Mr.. Reed and five colorei men were act
ing as home guards. The maraudcrs, some
iorty in number, rode up and hailed Mr.. Reed
1 nd his men, calling him by Hame and pre-
.nding to be friends until they had surrounded
Mr. Reed and two negroes, (the other three
iegroes, suspecting the party to be rebels, hav-
log 1ed,) when they were taken prisoners.
One of the negroes, unwilling to surrender, was
thoL dead; but Mr.. Reed and the other negro
were carried of in great haste by the gang
tome ten miles, when Que of the leaders
took Mr.. Reed, and another the negro, pinioned,
led them away from the party, and, hitching
their horses by the road, proceeded some dis
lance into the woods, and each endeavored to
rsssssinate his victim.
The negro was Hrst shot, and being slightly
Wounded in the ear, he fell TO the ground as II
dead; but Mr.. Reed was killed outright by q
shot through the head, Just back of the ears.
The Airing by pistols was so close to the head
ss 10 scorch the hair. After the victims were
IT for dead by the assasslns, the wounded and
frightened negro made his way back as quickly
,s possible TO the house Of Mrs. Reed, about
tunrise, and informed her Of the fate of her
u-band. As she was very feeble from sick
IS, a sister and young daughter of Mr.. Reed !,
ter having tried in vain to procure military

' h.yh would have become the soldiers stationed
sar by for special protection. These ladies,
having secured the services OF two men, whos 4
Ismes cannot DO given, carried the lifel' .si
B Jdy 0f the unfortunate victim in their ar INT
S.veral Ouudred yards, and, placing II in thei
wagon, conveyed 1t to his own house, from
which Mr.. Reed had been seized few hour
bulore, while, as captain Of the home guards
be was trying to defend his own s.nd othe
families in that afflicted neighborhood.
The writer has just left that house OF mourn
ing, having examined the wound and learned
tie facts from the friends and from the sur.
yiving negro. Mr.. Reed was u truly loyal
Did and nOble-hearted Christian man; a
brother of Rev, Il. W. Reed, well known in
