EDITORS ARGUs-Narcisse Laverdure,
a half-breed, was hung here at 2 A. NJ,

particulars are as follows: J. A. Wells
has a band of cattle across the river
from here, and has a herder employed
who has some six or eight saddle horses.
On the 25th inst two half-breeds made
camp near the herder's house, about
one mile from here, on the opposite
side Of the river. They laid over for
two days and considerable suspicion was
aroused as there are some go horses on
this side of the river.
On the morning of the Goth inst, the
two half-breeds run off five head Of
horses for Wells while the herder was
on this side of the river After running
up Eagle creek eleven miles, they acei

knowing the horses, ordered them tC

Laverdure was good looking half

acknowledged his guilt and strongly
censured his uncle, who was with him
and escaped, and who, he cllimed, led
him into the notion of stealing.

dure was run up from the ground over
