Darien,s sheriG,s Defense.

Editor of the Morning News: In your
issue of the Bird inst. you credit a structure
upon the Sheriff of Mcintosh county to
an interview with his excellency Allen
D. Gambler, Governor of Georgia. l am
constrained to discredit this item as COM
ing from Gov. Gambler, because of the
patent discrepancies between the truth,
facts and the report. After commenting
upon the inability of the sheriff and his
posse to unearth criminal from his hid
ing on Sapelo Island, -four miles from
Darien-being untrue, as Sapelo, at point
where the swamps exist, is over twenty
miles from Daren-the dispatch In the
Morning News and the article In the At
lanta papers undertake to say that the
Governor said 1T was this same sheriff
who cost the state 5000 last year on ac-
count of the trouble which happened at
Darien, caused by the two negroes named
Delega," AS this statement is absolutely
untrue, / do 10th think the Governor
could have made such a statement. Gov.
Gambler in the war. fought too constant
ly In the open to now, after he has been
made Governor on that war record, to de-
scend to the level OF sticking fellow
in the back, even If that fellow is only
sheriff of this state. Gov. Gambler nor
any other person, can trutnlully assert
that have not to the best of my knowl-
edge and ability been faithful TO the trust
reposed in me by the people when they
elected me sheriff OF Mcintosh county l
see no improperly in the states offering
a reward to capture dangerous criminals.
even II those criminals developed in the
coast counties. and not in Fulton, nor that
the Governor should begrudge the funds
IL earned, to bring such characters TO JUS
tice-for the money really has come out
of the pockets of the citizens Of Georgia,
aud is not a requsition on the Governors
private pocketbook. l again say that the
statement accredited to Gov. Gambler
is so absolutely ar variance with the
statement made In his message last year
20 the general assembly of Georgia, viz:
THAT the money spent In the Mcintosh
county lin Darien) troubles. was the best
money the state had ever spent" or some
thing substantially the same. that / can
not believe the Governor made the same.
ny giving this equal prominence az given
those structures. you will oblige one who
has been maligned In the press. without
opportunity to defend himself.
T. b. Blount, Sheriff.
