vegetables. He hired a dozen natives
to bring the supplies on board. and no.
ticed among them one who spoke the
English language quite well, although
he wore the customary breech-clout
and garb of the African savage. Capt
Sebree asked him where he was born.
I'm the United States, sir" answered
he with good old Southern twang.
I'm what part of the states were you
born?" oueried the captain.

Capt. Sebree eudgeled his memory.
He scrutinized the negro closely, anc

thought he recognized in him a hoy
he had known in his childhood. In
the early part of 1860 one of the blood
lest and most atrocious murders of
which Howard county can bosst was
committed. The victim was a wel1-to-
do farmer, his slayer being a negro on
that place. The murder was commit
ted in cold blood. Immediately after

instituted for the murderer. He was
traced with bloodhounds out of How
ard county through several adjacent
counties and over into Illinois. where
all trace was lost, until it was diseov-
cred that the assassin had safely reach
ed Canada. Shortly thereafter the
war began and the murder was again
lost sight of. 1t all came to Sebree
like a revelation. Here before him
stood the escaped criminal He had
found his way back to the land OF his
ancestry, feeling perfectly secure
among the savages of the dark cohti-

As the lieutenant scrutinized the dus-
ky countenance and compared the pic

The captain led his new-found COM
+ patriot aside and sat down on ths
deck. The handsomely uniformed ma
val officer and the half nude savage
talked over days of their boyhood in
far-away Missouri. Neither of them
alluded to the tragedy that drove one
OF them from his native land to the
wilds OF Africa to live the life OF a bar

went down, the negro asking many
questions about his old friends in the
civilized land OF his birth. Finally
they parted. Sam going ashore to his
