WILMINGTON, N. c., July ia fearful
butchery was perpetrated in Robeson
county, yesterday afternoon, by Henry
Berry, Lowry and band of negro outlaws.
A sheriff's posse having in charge Lowry's
wife, and several others, who had been aid
ing and abetting the outlaws, was ambus-
caded near Buis' store, ON the Wilmington.
Charlotte and Rutherford railroad.
The following named, of the sheriffs
posse, were killed and wounded: Killed
Hector Mcmillan, Archibald Brown and
Hector McNeill. WOunded-D. McCor-
mack, Berry Barnes and James Lowry, the
latter colored man, and cousin of the out
law Lowry, but cooperating with the
sheriffs posse.
The fight resolved itself into a regular
battle, which lasted some time.
The sherlff's posse fought WELL even fol-
lowing the outlaws into the recesses of the
swamp; but it is not certainly known that
any OF the outlaws were killed.
Lowry, the leader of the outlaws, and
Captain +. d. Wishart had regular duel
on the railroad track, each loading and
firing deliberately five or six times, but
neither were wounded.
The whole county of Robson is at last
fully aroused, and it is believed that cam
paign will be inaugurated that will result
in the determination of the outlaws.
Committees of citizens of Robson county,
came to this city to-day to secure arms and
ammunition. Every member of the Towrv
band is reported colored.
