Thursday last, Captain Mccormick
and Surgeon Shrek, of the 9Th Pennsyl.
vania Cavalry, left camp at Bradstowu
for the purpose of visiting the family ol
Mr. Grigsby. one and half miles from
town. While the two gentlemen were
sitting in Mr.. G.'s parlor, conversiue
with the ladies, they were surprised by
the sudden appearance Of Sue Mundy,
at tho head of g,ng # thirteen despera
does. The two officers, finding resist
ance useless, Immediately surrendered
Sue Mundy was apprsed Of the fact by
one Of Mr.. Grigsby's daughters, who
begged her to spare the lives Of the two
men. She replied by cursing her, and
told her she would be her own judge, at
the same time walking up to CAPTAIN
McCormick and shooting him through
the head. She then shot Dr.. Shrek
through the breast. Both men died al
most instantly. The gang then left in
the direction Of Bloomfield, where they
have their headquarters. The citizens
recognized among the scoundrels man
BY tho name OF Turner, from Bradstown,
who was sent across the river some
weeks ago. to remain during the war.
The gang has been prowling around
Bradstown for the past week. They
have sworn to kill every Federel soldier
caught by them. They rob evry body.
and are terror to the whole country.
General Long, as soon as he herd OF
the number OF the two officers, sent scout
ing parties in all directions, with instruc-
tions to kill all guerrillas captured. We
have not Termed weather any of the party
were caught.
The bodies of CAPTAIN Nc Cormick and
Surgeon Shrek. we're brought to the city
yesterday. to be forwarded to their friends
in Pennsylvania.
The Press adds:
We were assured yesterday. by gen
tlemsn who ought to know. that Sue
Mundy is Of the masculine gender. and is
the grandson ofe Governor Clarke. We
have never seen the individual, and can
not state positively whether this is SO or
not. We are also assured that the person
who passed for Sue Mundy. at Bradstown
on Thursday, was man. Who can tell
who and what-besides q robber Sue
Auudy is?
