Testimony of +. j. Noses, Jr.
COLUMBIA, S. c., October 10, 1877.
Personally came F. ]. Moses, who, on
oath, deposes and says: The passage of
the bill Fessking an appropriation to pay
the reward offered for the apprehension
and convic,sS3 of the members of the
Ku Klux Khan was secured by D. H..
Chamberlain and T. ]. Mackey, who
were in the interest of Major Lewis Mer-
rill. After the passage of the bill, Cham
berlain came to me and requested that
the entire amount should be awarded to
Merrill, and that / would receive q GER
tain sum if l would do so. J. replied
that, under the provisions of the act, the
distribution of the fund was placed in
my hands exclusively, and that in that
matter / intended to be very careful, and
would not accede to his proposition.
Then Mackey came to me and made the
same request and proposition, and to him
gave the same reply as had given to
Chamberlain. Chamberlain then came
again and suggested that l should ap-
point commission, who should recon-
mend the distribution of the fund, and
that if would appoint him on the com,
mission he would induce them to award
the whole amount TO Merrill, and that he
would see that should be paid certain
proportion. 1 did as he asked, but he
only succeeded in having the commission
award to Merrill about S22 900, | think
warrants for which sum were given to
Merrill, less the sum paid to Mackey and
myself. One warrant for 81 900, or two
