MusKoeEE, Indian Territory, June A.
A terrible piece Of criminal carelessness
on the part Of the Marshal, which resulted
in the killing OF three school children, has
Just com to light. Some three weeks ago
Deputy Marshal Meeshon, with a posse,
was looking for two murderers in the
Chickasaw Nation, near Red River. Ine
murderers we're supposed to be at a GER
tain house, and just before daylight the
officers surrounded the place. Tit woman
Of the house and two children, II and 16
years Of age, were sleeping ont under the
trees, owing to the heat Of the night, and
q third child, only 9 years old, was sleep
ing in the house. The Marshal on riding
up woke them, and they, supposing that
some drunken Indians were %carousing
around, ran for the house to barricade
themselves. The Marshal opened fire on
them, killing both children and wound
ing the woman. They then rushed into
the house. and seeing the other child lying
there, in a dim light, shot and killed her.
On seeing their mistake, the Marshal and
his posse left, and reported that they had
killed three desperadoes, but the facts
have lust come out. The Chickasaws are
greatly excited over it, and are determined
10 sift the matter to the bottom.
