THE MOUMA MURDER.
Letter from A. Johnston to Senator
O'Hara.
Hnt-MA Annnst 20 1893

NN-"-Ai ~AN . NA@N ~ A~S's
Hon. P. o'Hars:
My DEAR SIR: One of the most horrible
murders took place at Theriot's sugarhouse
last night that you ever heard of. Scott Cor
don, a colored man and a little rowdy named
Davis, came here about three weeks ago
to speak around the parish for Democratic
converts. But success did not crown their
efforts; SO on Saturday they thought they
would try Bayou du Cargo, and went to
Theriot's, where they had speech, after
which ball. After dancing a while, a
fellow from town, named Lagarde, topped
up to Alfred Crump, good Radical of the
best stripe, who was smoking and looking
on, but did not dance as he lost child a
few days before; but they persuaded him
to go to the speech. Lagarde knocked the
pipe out of his mouth, and Alfred told him
quietly that it was worth dollar, when,
after few unimportant words, Lagarde
pushed him, and on dong so, fred his re-
volvcc so close to his breast that it burnt
his shirt, and tie ball went through his
heart, killing him instsntly. His body has
just arrived about an hour ago in church.
lucy ulu nOt Try ~ drIesb 1dSdruos he
came in town about twelve O'clock, and
was carried of, 1t is said, to Thibodaux in
one of Berger's buggies. Crump was
quiet, peaceable man; he had lived with
me six months, and never saw fault he
had; it's horrible. He leaves a wife and
three or four children, and you ought .
know him; he is son-in-law of old man
Jack Hicks. It's awful, tell you, and the
effect it has on the colored people you can
have no idea Of, for this fellow Lagarde
had been going around with those Demo-
cratic speakers, which makes it so much
the worse for the Democrats. / will finish
this in the morning. A. J.
MONDAY MoRNING.-I have nothing fur
ther to tell you this morning. went to
the church last night where the body of
Crump was in the coffin. A good many
people were present. The Deputy Sheriff
came back last night; could not hear any
thing Of Lagarde. We will dispatch TO
Brashear, as we suppose he may take the
Galveston steamer, or go up the Teche, on
his way to Texas. will also send to the
Chief of Police in New Orleans.
l remain, yours truly,
A. JOHNSTON.

General Buchanan thus defines the Off
cial relations between military command
ers and sherias:
The Sheriff, being State officer, usually
appointed for particular county or par
ish, is restricted in the execution of his
duties to the territorial limits of such coun-
ty or parish. His right to require the as
sistanee of the posse cO0itdtls is supreme
within such limits. He is therefore author
lied, in cases Of unlawful resistance to his
authority clearly shown to exisS to require
the assistance Of any troops serving with
in his district In such cases the military
commanders viii be required to render the
assistance called for; provided, that in the
exercise Of sound discretion, he is sats.
fed that the necessity for such service ex-
ists. But should he not be thoroughly
satisfied Of this, he will decline to act un-
til he can make a report to, and receive
special instructions from these headquar
ters, in each case.
