At the gypsy ca mp near the residence
of George w. Poist, free fight was
INDUCED in last Saturday and cold as it
was the women sent two small children
down here to secure an officer. But we
are not favored with an officer who can
serve as constable outside of the town
limits.
During the cold weather last week the
water froze in the boiler at G. W. Fox's
-four mill and burst it and some pipes.
The snow still blocks the road near
Battle Swamp, and persons going to and
from Woodlawn drive through the fields.
1t seems that the road supervisors should
have some authority to open roads, and
they should be opened.
Ice is about eighteen inches thick on
the river and those having sleighs
frequently drive to and from Havre de
Grace. Quite number of parties have
gone in large sleighs on trip to our
neighboring city.

by fully 1000 people, Twenty five years
previous to this, in April 1854, Joseph
Swift was hanged on Gray's Hill, one
mile east Of Elkton. Although there are
no authentic records of any execution
previous to that of Swift, there is every
reason to believe that several executions
occurred in this county at early dates.
On June 8. 1924, John Hack, who was
then sheriff, presented a petition to the
court, stating that certain Robert
Duth, then in his custody, was sentenced
to be hanged on the 19.h of that month
and being fearful he might escape
through the inefficiency of the Jail, he
besought the court to order a guard to
watch the prisoner and also to summon
the constables of the various hundreds
to be present and assist at his execution.
The petition was granted and no doubt
the man was hanged.
At this time the county seat was at
Court House Point and there is no doubt
that at least two other criminals were
executed there. One of them is said to
have been drawn and quartered, and
part of his body exposed on each side of
the / liver. He was slave and had MUIR
dered his master one Mr.. Sarviu, who
lived in Elk Neck, opposite Court House
Point. The other one was executed for
the murder of Hugh Mahaffey which
occurred on the 18th of November 1749.
Mahaffey lived on Big Elk short dis
lance south of the telegraph road and
was killed by the paramount of his wife
and an apprentice boy, whom the guilty
couple forced to finish the work which
they had began, by knocking Mahaffey
senseless while sitting by the fire. The
boy was hanged, the man having escaped
before the murder was discovered.
In 17SG one John Dockerty was con.
victed of robbery and sentenced to be
hanged at Charlestown, but inasmuch
as tradition is silent on the subject, it is
probable that he was not executed.
