1t is reported on very good authority
that John O'Dougberty, his brother Ed
ward and Mr.. Hope, formerly of Phoebe,
have beeh killed at Apache Pass. John
Boyd, OF Phoebe, WAS with them when

safe, escaping from the Apsches, who,
the day before had killed ten meu. He
had previous to this received q dispatch
to the effect that Edward and Hope had

took place on Tuesday evening last and
was q complete surprise (he having bor-
rowed an organ and was busy all the day
prior in preparing for the occasion) to
the party for whom it was intended, A.

gentleman composing the party met at
the house of Geo., H. Fish laden with
baskets containing the refreshments, and
from there proceeded to Emanuel's
house. They found that gentleman en-

CRAWFORD TAKEN TO HAMILTON. -
Jim. Crawford was taken from the
County Jail on Thursday last, placed in
the stage under charge of Eugene Blair,
and taken to Hamilton. He does not in
tend to stand any trial, but will confess
his part in the stage robbery transaction
and throw himself on the mercy of the
Court. Blair does not intend to take him
into Ward City when he bel lift here, but
would keep him on the road about six
miles from that place until the stage
again came down to go. Crawford is ex-
tremely reticent in regard to any one else
but himself He states that he knew
there was money on that stage and also
that Blair would be aboard; how he knew
it puzzles the Company, but he refuses
to tell in that regard. The question IT,,
have the Company employees who give
items to such men?
