A Man Eater Gagged

Travis johnson and Henry
Thomas, both colorsd, and living
ON Col. Randolph's place, became
involved in a quarrel and lawsuit
sometime since, in which Thomas
got the best of it. This SO angered
Travis that he got out his shot gun
and attempted to kill Thomas, but
fortunately the caps snapped and he
failed in his purpose. Travis then
reloaded his gun with the avowed
intention of killing Thomas, and
said there were not enough white
men or negroes in Grant parish to
arrest him. All the same Sheriff
Kemp and Constable LaCroix took
the warrant Monday evening, and
before midnight captured Travis
and his little gun, and had him
safe within the walls of the Jail.
