A Hans wife Outraged Before His Very
Eyes and re PSWeFlesS 10 RENDER Her
Assistance,
From gentleman who arrived In thia
city yesterday from Burton, WstzslCounty,
We learned the particulars Of an outrage
that for atrociousnsss, and revolving de-
tails, has scarcely any parallel in criminal
history In this locality, and II the facts are
as represented, NO punishment can be too
severe for the perpetrators.
Itappears that one night last week q
young couple by the name Of McMasters
had retired to bed in their humble cabin
near Board Tree station, which 10 situated
on or near the line between Marshall and
Wslzsl counties, and that shortly alter re.
firing they were suddenly awakened by
the breaking open OF the door Of their
house, by the following named young
men: BEant, 0'Neil aud Jim and John
McGufIy, who at once seized the young
vile and dragged her from her bed, while
others Of the party laid hold Of the hus.
band and hurried him out Of the house,
but lett him In such 3 position that he
had an uninterrupted view OF all that sub.
seuuently trAnspiTed. After thus securing
the man, our informant continued, they
turned their attention 10 The woman,
whom each in turn outraged before the
very eyes Of her helpless and almost fran
tic husband. The terrific cries Of the
woman and the groans and sup
plications Of the man at last seemed TO have
an effect upon the demons, and they
allowed the poor woman TO 60, but not
until they had subjected her TO the most
brutal and horrible indlgnitieS, They then
took the bed and bedding and piled them
on the roof oil the house, beside destroy
ing the scanty eaecIs oil the almost dsSti'
tule family.
As soon as daylight came Mr., MCMss
tiers and his vile went to Squire Mo
Glumphy, q Justice OF the Peace in the
vicinity, and asked Tor warrants for the
tends, but on account oil some reason ht
refused 70 grant them, saying that he wa
afraid to do go, The distance to the Office
OF another Justice was 80 grea
that the poor people were on the point o.
abandoning the matter and were on theil
road home, when some friends hearing O.
the outrage, and anxious TO see the per
petrators punished, persuaded them 10 "a
before Justice A. ], Martin, near Cameron
who issued warrants, and sent posse o
men 10 execute them. The officers hat
not found them atthree o'clock Saturday
but It 10 expected that they are In jail b!
this time. There 10 an intense exCitemsn
in the community and mutLered threats o
vengence were heard at various times, q
the enormi,y and indefenBibllity Of th
crime have excited all the good citizens i
an extent seldom seen out there.
