A VETERAN MURDERER.
Slayer Of Thnty.tOo Men-A GentIemang
Fdrmer.
From the Shreveport Tlmes,l


We learn from Mr.. Courtney, deputy |
sheriff of De Soto parish, that on last
Monday or Tuesday.he arrested William
Lungley, very desperate character, who
is wanted in Texas for many highhanded
outrages he has committed in that State.
He murdered his last victim in Lee coun-
ty. where he was well known and feared
as a bad man and a remarkably good shot
with either pistol or rifle. For some
time he was confined in the county Jail
of Lee, but subsequently made his escape
and fed to Louisiana, settling in De Soto
parish, where he has been living quietly
and peaceably for nearly two years under
an assumed name of Jackson. The Sher-
iff'of Lee county learning of Lungleys
whereabouts, wrote to the Sheriff OF Dc.
Soto parish, giving full description OF
the man and the crime he had last COM
mitted, and cautioned him to use every
precaution for his capture as he or some
of the posse might possibly lose their
lives. Soon everything was quietly and
systematically arranged for his capture.
Mr.. Courtney and a small posse went in
to the neighborhood of where their man
was living, and before he was aware OF
what was going on they suddenly came
upon him in the field rloughing and un-
armed, taking him completely by sur;
prise. Lungley Immediately realized
what was up, and seeing that he had no
possible chance of escape, gracefully sur
rendered, saying, Gentlemen, | know
what YOU want you are after William
Lungley; | am the man." Mr.. Courtney
informed him that he had guessed cor
rectly and produced the warrant for his
arrest. Lungley, after being well Secur'
ed, said he might as well make clean
breast of it, as it would be the last OF HIM
when he reached Texas, and confessed 10
the killing of thirty-two, and said ne
came near killing man two days before
his arrest and wished he had done it, as
it would have saved him from being cap
tured.
During his residence in De Soto parish
he conducted himself in most quiet and
gentlemanly manner, and none OF MS
neiphbors for moment suspected him
of being the blood-thirsty villain that
he is.
After Lungley's delivery to the Texan
Sheriff he invited Mr. Courtney and his
posse to come and see him hanged.
