SrAuyroS, Va, January 0.--Friday night
last desperate lypcbing affair occurred at
Monterey, in Highland county. Owing to
the blockaded roads fifty miles across four
mountains the particulars did not reach
here until tonight.
Il. u. Atchison, the lynched man, was
confined in jail for stabbing Sidney Ruck-
man. a prominent Readjuster. on Christ
mas-day while the two were drinking to-
getber. Atcbison, who IL said to be Yer
monter and desperate character. was ar
rested against the protest Of Ruckman,
who is recovering from the cutting.
Atchison was heard to make some threats
that when he got out OF Jail he would kill
some OF the men who procured his arrest.
Friday night last ten rough fellows with
masks on came to the Jail about midnight
and demanded the keys Of j. Hiner, the
person in charge. He said they were not
In his possession. The mob, all OF whom
are said ID have been under the influence
OF liquor, then commenced to batter down
the doors, meanwhile shooting with pistols
and guns through the doors and windows.
Atchison fought furiously inside for his
life, though shot three or four times.
Once he knocked pistol out OF
the hand OF man who had thrust

The desperadoes were two hours in forcing
their way into the cell OF the doomed man,
during which time the masks fell from the
faces OF five OF the men, who were recog-
nized by the man on guard. Atchison
was finally secured, and, bleeding from
four wounds. almost dead. and unable to
walk, was tied and dragged away about 2
or 3 O'Clock in the morning. The lynchers
told the guard he would find their prisoner
on certain tree about balf-mile from
town. After daylight he followed the track
where the unfortunate man had been
dragged through the snow, and found him
hanging dead from the tree indicated.
The law-abidng community Of Highland
! is said to be most indignant over this out
rage, and determined that the guilty par
ties shall be brought to justice, though the
mail-rider who left the village yesterday
morning says no arrests have vet been
made.
Atchison, 1t is said, had wife at Deer
field, in this county, with whom he did mo-
live agreeaby.
