Cook who persuaded them to stay. under ample protection. A posse of deter miced men were sent secretly to the place, and a warm welcome awaited the mlScreants.
 Alta cabin on the place one of the party who had made the scorching threats was known to be, and his name had been reported to the posse who were making preparations for an arrest when other evidence than that of a negro's could be secured, when on Wednesday one of the partys asserted that it was all done as a joke.
