WARREHToS, January 10.-About two
weeks ago a young negro man named Ar
thur Gordon, or Jordan. living near this
place. eloped with Mss Corder, daughter
OF Nathan Corder. They went to Maryland,
and on Wednesday u body Of eight horse
men appeared upon the streets OF Williams
port, heavily armed and equipped, in search
OF the runaway couple. The girl is said TO
have appropriated $1,000 belonging to her
father, which she took with her in her fight.
The party OF men bad been on the search
Tor several DAYS, and traced them across
the Potomac to the vicinity OF Williams
port. where the man was taken in charge.
The girl, who is about seventeen years
OF age, and not bad looking, was taken
to Taylor's Hotel, in Williamspori, and
placed under the care OF the proprietor
until her relatives could be notified.
In leaving Wiliamsport the armed horse
men took the negro with them, and,
from threatening remarks made by
them, the impression gained ground
in WilliamspJrt that the affair would
result in lynchlne. The pair had
been stopping at the house Of Mr..
Shoop, some distance above Willamspoit.
and 1t was at this point that the mounted
men crossed over into Virginia with their
captive. The negro and the girl had visited
Williamsport in company several times.
attracting great attention each time. Their
last visit there was at the dedication OF the
cOlOred church.
On Friday the party were in Winchester
en- route 70 Warrenton, where they arrived
that evening. As the horsemcn rode down
Main street in Winchester the negro sud-
denly drew UP, and declared he "would
90 no further until he was permitted TO
consult lawyer; whereupon two OF
the white men Immediately commenced
TO whip up the horse he was riding
on, and ordered him to go on. A consta-
BILE demanded their authority for such
proceedings. One OF the men then told him
they had none; whereupon they were all
arrested and carried before Justice Krebs.
Arthur Gordon, it was ascertaiued, was a
married man, with two or three children.
The men had followed the negro over
into Maryland from Fauquier county,,
near Clear Spring, where they arrested
him. Justice Krebs swore one Of the
men in as a special constable, and let
them proceed on their way. The negroes
employed counsel, and endeayored to OBJ
tain writ Of hd5eaS corpus, but before
they could succeed the parties had taken
their prisoner and decamped. They re-
turned to Warrenton Friday night, aud
Gordon was safely locked up in Jail.
About O'Clock this morning GOrdan was
taken from jail and hung. The verdict Of
the jury, just rendered, Is that Gordan came
to his death by strangulatiOn at the hands OF
from forty 70 sixty men to them unknown.
