authorities are going to handle the men
engaged IN the killing of Boone MARROW
last Thursday night. The citizens of
Graham who contributed to the reward
offered for NARROW will also be liable

rickson and Beavers had no authority
whatever to go upon United States terri
tory and kill man. Without even a
deputation they crossed the Red river
and shot man down for $500. It is al

for the killers, and the citizens of Ora

which they did not contemplate when
they subscribed to the NARROW reward
fund.
