WATERFORD. TEX, April lG.-Dlck
Cook, the Graham stage driver, WAS drlv
ing the United States mail stage from
this point to Graham, Saturday, when IL
was robbed by q lone highwayman about
thirty miles from this place. The facts
as detailed by the driver are ee follow ::
When the stage was near Cave spIirgs,
on the Grsham read, man ran cut from
a thicket near the road to large tree
which was standing over the roSd and or
dered the driver TO hold up. The CON-
msnd WAS ooeJed. By time this DIR. 81
L. Jameson, the only passenger on the
stage, was sitting on the OUT
side with the driver, drew his
pistol and made fight, when the robIer
Jumped behind the stage and prevenCad
the passenger from shooting hin. TIE
robber then ordered the driver to get out
OF the way SO he could shoot the paseen-
ger. The driver WAS forced to obey,
when the passenger jumped off on the
opposite side Of the stage. The rUbber
and the doctor tried some little time tG
shoot each other under the stage, but fail-
ing to get chance to shoot under the
stsge the robber ordered the driver 70
drive on SO he could have chance
to shoot the passenger. The
passenger, DR.. Jameson, told the driver
to stand his ground, that il there was
any shooting he would have hand in it.
After some little time the driver Was
forced to drive, when the rCboer had
got the only tree near snd was behind
1t, which afforded him ample protection.
As the stage pulled out the roboer opened
fire on the passenger, who Wss obliged to
make hasty retreat, the robber firing
several shots but without effect. When
the driver had driven few yards
he WAS ordered to stop, and
when the robber had succeeded il
winning the battle he went back to the
sge and ordered the mail pouches
thrown out. This being done he made
the drive pull out, telling him not to stop
this side Of CHRISTIAN, soout eight miles.
1t is learned from PostmasterJ ohnson OF
this place that there were only two regis
tered packages on the stage, and il is sup
posed that the booty obtained ep this day
light raid was very small. Therss5ses but
one passenger on board and the sesaer
did not succeed In robbing MIN. The
driver when he handed out the mai
pouches asked him If he wanted kwhas
money he had and WAS told "no."& lac
robber was well masked, having black
sack pulled down over his head. u
