After Eighteen Years.
WHEELING, w. Va, March 24.-The Hat
feld-McCoy feud and the consequent war
fare between the residents OF Logan county,
w. Va, and Pike county, KY, is at an end.
This feud has been in existence since

up relentlessly since. The teud has been
the subject of hundreds of newspaper arti-
cles, and at least two novels-one the
American Verdetta"- been written
about it. Tho feud has been the cause of
no less than one hundred deaths among the
participants, and men have grown up from
hood with feud instilled into them,
aAu even the women have been fighters.
The following communication tells the
story:
ITO the editor of the Wayne News: 1
ask space in your valuable paper .or these
few lines. A general amnesty has been de-
clared in the famous Hatfield and Mccoy
1eud, and l wish to say something of the
old and the new. | do not wish to keep the
old ieud alive, and suppose everybody,
like myself is tired Of the names Hatfield
and Mccoy and the words border warfare
in times OF peace The war spirit in me
has abated, and l sincerely rejoice at the
prospects o peace. l have devoted my life
to arms. We have undergone a fearful loss
of noble lives and valuable property in this
struggle, we being like Adam, not the first
transgressors Now, propose to rest in a
spirit of peace"

for his recovery from the beginning of his
illness.

ton has shown unmistakable signs Of a
general breaking down. His mind often
became bewildered so that he could not tell
where he was or how he came there.

parently a little better. While his friends
and attendants knew that he might pass

Confederacy. After the war he became sue
oessively president OF railroad company
i'll Arkansas, of an express company in
Virginia and an insurance agent in
Georgia. He was elected to congress
from the Richmond district i'll 1877
and next saw public life as commissioner
OF railroads, which office he held under
President Cleveland's administration. He
had lived in this city since he lost his office
under the present administration.
Gen. Johnston was man Of slender
build, of not more than medium height
and with a kindly, pleasant face. He was
unobtrusivc in manner, and invariably
courteous to all persons with whom he was
brought in contact.
