THE CAREER OF ONE nArF1ELD
Yarns Told About Jerry, Who was Shot
at Logan Court House Last Week.

From the Aer York Sun.
CHARLESTON, w. VA. April |. -The death
of Jerry Hatfield, who was shot by NJ. C,
Lee at Logan Court House on Saturdayniuht
last, is the result of a split in the Hatfield
gang, which began Immediately after the
murder of Allaphare Mccoy in the New
Years night raid on the McCoys two years
ago Elias Hatfield, the brother of old Bad
Anse, and his boys would have nothing to
do with that raid, and Anse and his BOYS
resented this inactivity. Anse's boy Cap
was particularly energetic in his threats,
but being great coward by nature, never
dared make an attack on either Elias or
Elias sons. Among the latter was
Jerry, who had helped Anse's crowd
very often, and who, being more of dare
devil than any of the rest, was very much
liked. At first Ause and Cap did all that
persuasion would do to keep him ''under
arms Failing in this Cap swore to do for
him, and has at last succeeded through his
cousin, N. c. Lee. 1t is noticeable that of
the dozen and odd murders committed by
the Hatfield gang in the course OF the Hat
tield-McCoy feud only one person was
killed by either Anse or his boys alone aad
unaided, and that one was jeff Mccoy, who
was shot by Cap Hatfield. Anse and his
boys participated in the shooting of the
three Mccoy boys, whom they first tied to
the pawpaw bushes on the bank of Tug
river, but there were twenty others in the
gang,
