LowERY AS A TERRoRfzER.
Mr.. Hayes, republican, Of Shoe Heel,
whose knowledge Of the Scuflletown set
Element il very good and whose practical
northern mind is not likely to be deceived,
told me that Lowery among his numer-
Gus warnings served upon people, stopped
one white man on the road and said, You
are taking advantage OF my circumstances
and absence to be familiar with my family.
Now, you had better pack up and get out
of this county The man lost no time in
doing as he was requested for Henry Ber-
ry Lowery generally warns before he kills.
In the matter of honesty in the observ-
ance Of a promise or a treaty the people
most robbed and outraged by this bandit
acknowledge his Indian scrupulousness.
"Mr. McNair," he said to one Of his
white neighbors, whom he had robbed
twenty times, 81 want you TO gear up
and go to Lumbcrton, where they have
put my wife in Jail for no crime but be-
cause she is my wife; that amt her fault,
and they can't make it So. You people
won't let me work to make my living, and
l have to take 1t from you; but, God
knows, she'd like to see me make my own
bread. You go to Lumbcrton and tell the
sheriff and county commissioners that il
they do not let her ont OF Jail II retaliate
on the white women of Burnt Swamp
Township. Some Of them must come with
me to the swamp IL she is kept in Jail, be-
cause they can't get me."
Lowery then named point on the road
where he would meet McNair, and he met
him instead three miles nearer Lumber
ton. The feeling of terror In the county
may be understood when, without more
delay, Rhody Lowerv was set free.
