e MAP or TNr SCENE OF TIE TROUBLE.
IL 1868 Capt James Vance, Hatfield, an
officer Of the Confederate army, made raid,
during which he met one Of his former
friends. 4 Mccoy, whom he shot This was
in the Hatfield Mccoy war what tho firing
on Sumter was 70 the nation. Some time
after three McCoya lurled near Vance's house
for the purpose Of filing him with lead.
Vance's wife, however, pretended 70 look for
her COW, spied out the onemy's camp and In
formed her husband. Vance slipped out tho
back door, got Ia the cnouny's rear, killed
two Of them aud put the third to eight
Then the McCoys met one StrattoD, a Hat
field, on road in Pike county, and scored
one for their side by shooting him. About
ilvo OF six yoars ago johnson HntAeld, q son
Of Capt. Anson Hatdald, met and wcoed q
Mccoy girl Ono night he ran her Of. He
lived with her TIL be became tired Of her
and then Let her go.
BY this time Winchester rides became
plentiful, and tho warfare began 10 be pIac-
tioed on large scale One day after an
election three McCoys knocked down Hat
fed and cut him up into mincemeat Where
upon Capt. Ans Hatfield raided Pike county
and carried off the three offending McCoys,
These McCoys, one Of whom was bot 10 years
old they tied 20 trees and amused themselves
10 pouTlng bullets into them till they were
dead
The Daily times. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1886-1889, 1888-02-17

After good many moro murders, the state
u Kentucky concluding that If she did not
interfere there might be bloodshed, offered
heavy rewards for Ans Hatfield and sew
srsl Of that gang. Frank Phillips Nc
Coy, was then deputy sheriff Of Pike county,
Hy. Taking tho warrants, be led gang into
Logan county and captured tho stopfather Of
a man for whom he had a warrant. Soon
after another raid was made into Logan
county, W Va, resulting in the capture OF
more prisoners Then the Logan county
regulators gave notice that If there was
any moro "fooling" somebody might get
hurt This kept the peace for q while, but
not long On New Years night about q
dozen Hatflelds surrounded Randall McCoy's
los cabin and called on him 70 come out and
surrender. Mccoy vas naturally tirnid
about obliging them, whereupon they set the
house afirc AL the occupant, Of the houss
except one, including an old woman and Il
young girl, were shot down. The escaped
man was Repeall Mccoy, whose wife, four
.ons and daughter have been killed.
Capt Vance, Of the Hathelds, was the ne1t
70 fall The McCoys went 10 his house when
be was away and robbed it. An old woman,
Mrs.. Vance, Capt. Vance and Capt. Hatfield,
we're returning homo, when they met the
NcCoys. Capt Vance ran down the noun
tain side he was descending at the time AS
soon as the McCoys saw him they opened
tire, which the captain returned. Mrs Vance
was about half way between the two. She
held her ground, the tullsts flying BY Der
thck and fast. The McCoys yelled TO her to
sit down, but she wouldn't. They called out
that they would shoot her, and she told them
10 shoot Presently she heard Vance shout;
Rally on tho top OF the hill boys Then
she knew he was bit and delhtous The old
.ady told them they needn't fire any moro
IL is suppo'ed that this murder was not in
splred by tho noble purpose Of the former
ones, but that 1t was simply TO acquire pos
session Of the captains ride.
And il is supposed that the Hght VIII go on
yet many years, or until some one In author
ity with nerve puts stop 20 IL.
But the violent death OF the last Hatfield
and the last Mccoy may occur in the mean
time

Charles Ellis, colored youth of un-
envions notoriety, who was lately con-
victed before the District Court of lar
ceny, and who was in Jail awaiting SEN
tence, turned up among the missing on
Wednesday morning last. It is custom
ary to allow the prisoners confined in
AtIe iron cage the freedom of the room
In which it is situated, during the day,
that they may have exercise, and it Is
presumed that Ellis secreted himself on
top of ths cage during the day, and es-
capped natice of the keeper when the
rest of the prisoners were locked up for
the night, when he left his perch, made
hole through the brick wall and put
out on IL race for liberty.
The convict is what may be termed
IA bad egg,n and it is to he hoped that
the efforts of our sheriff for his recap
fure may be crowned viii, success.
