while raiding in Kentucky. and heard from
Vance's widow the story of the butchery
of three defsnseless Mccoy children by a
force of Hatfields, the first act in carrying
out the declaration of determination
against the McCOys. Once convinced of the
truth OF this the marshal made resolve
TO capture and turn over to justice every
participant in that crime who should cross
his path and within month he had made
his first capture.
This was the taking of Charles Gillespie,
who, after the murders went to his aunt's
home IN Tazewell county, Virginia, just
across the line. The house stands on a re-
mote mountain. reached by horse trail.
Thither Cunningham made his way, pre-
tending to be a friend of Gillespie's. At the
house he learned that Gillespie spent his
days IN the mountain forest, coming in only
at night. In a clearing of the woods he
found the young desperate, carrying the
Inevitable rife. Whistling a cheerful tune
the marshal walked along the trail until he
met Gillespie. whose suspicious were dis
armed, for he never supposed that man
hunter would be whistling on the trail. As
they came face to face Cunningham caught
the young fellow by the wrists. Gillespie
struggled, but the marshal's muscles are
scarcely less hard than the steel handouts

IN THE CHI R CHES

Rev. DR.. William H. Ketcha1n, acting
director of the bureau Of Catholic missions,
with headquarters in Washington, has is
sued an address to the Catholics Of the
country, asking for contributions in aid of
the Catholic Indian schools. In the past,
the appeal declares, these schools were
supported by the United States government,
and were known as contract schools. In
1895 there were 5000 Indian boys and girls
in the contract schools. For these 1900
children the government appropriated $685.
215, in consideration of which the boarding
schools were, in the language of the agree
ment with the commissioner Of Indian af-
fairs. ito care for and educate their pu-
pills; to supply them with suitable and suf-
ficient clothing, subsistence, lodging ac-
commodations. medical attendance, school
books, stationery. school appliances, and
all other articles necessary to their personal
comfort; and also to supply the school with
mechanical TOOLS seeds and all other arti-
cles necessary in a properly conducted
school,
After 1895 the government appropriation
was every-year reduced by 20 per cent and
In consequence the number of children at
tending the schools gradually grew smaller

along. Counting in Ellis, the party was
four strong, all around. But Jonce had a
reputation a dead shot, had killed a
dozen men, and he and his companion had
all the advantage of the position. Cum
ningham led his forces out of the house by
a rear exit, and around by a gully to
spot near the ragweed patch. He had made
a study of the ground about the house pre-
viously, and knew just how to go ahead.
With Ellis close behind him, he crept up
close to where Jonce crOuched. The outlaw
had his gun pointed at a lighted window of
the Ellis house waiting for figure to
show. The curtain was down. 1t always
was in that house, for just such reason
Don't reckon Well get him tonight" the
attacking party heard Jonce mutter to his
companion.

pered Ellis.

alive
Then he broke cover and went straight
for Jonce. Hatfield wheeled, but Cunning
hams rifle pointed straight between his
eyes. The other man dropped on all tours
and scuttled away through the weeds
Jonce stood paralyzed.
Hands up" commanded Cunningham
The outlaw hestated.
Reach for the stars! Quicki'' came the
sharp order.
Threaten His Life.
The outlaws rifle fell and his hands
went up. Cunningham took from him
44-caliber revolver and a fine English dirk,
and left him in charge of Ellis while he
went after the other man. The man was
soon found and captured He was AUX
Cameron, and as Cunningham knew moth
ing at that time against him he was re-
leased. This proved to be an error, for it
was afterward found that Cameron had
broken Jail under sentence Of death for the
murder of deputy sheriff in Virginia.
Cunningham took Jonce Hatfield to Ken
lucky, where he broke down and confessed.
He is now serving life sentence for the
murder of the Mccoy children. Naturally
that made the Hatfields more savage than
ever against Cunningham, and they re-
doubled their threats Now, whenever he
is in that country he gets warning that
bands of mounted Hatfields are following
him. But, as before, they don't catch up.
He holds the clan in contempt.
IF they can get you foul they'll kill
you," he says. But in the open they're
all towards"
1t is not part of Cunningham's duty as
a federal officer to hunt Hatfelds. He does
it as he would hunt rattlesnakes and as
his warrants for "moonshine whisky dis
tillers often take him to the Hatfield DUN

bingham is not the sort of man that one
would care to have his trail. He is
more than six feet tall, broad in proper
ton, beautifully muscled possessed of cat
a rifle or revolver, and in that country
swiftness is a necessary accompaniment
of sureness He is always in the hardest
of training, as he neither drinks smokes
nor chewS. In manner and appearance he
is quiet and transformations, and when
going about the country is commonly
taken for an itinerant clergyman.

Napier and Mitchell returned empty-hand-
ed Ellison was tied and handcuffed, while
Cunningham was washing his bruised and
bloody face in the creek. Cunningham
took Ellison across the river to Kentucky
where they found Bud Mccoy waiting with
twelve men The McCoys called on Cum
bingham to give up Ellison Hatfield to
them, and at that Ellison broke down, cried
and begged, and confessed the murder of
Alaphare Mccoy. Cunningham asked Bud

Hatfields swore that they would have Cum

dering expedition. Young Gibson went
with him. They found Messer near the
Hatfield settlement sitting on log with
his rifle across his knees, and captured him
without fight. At the station. where they
took the train for Kentucky, they encount-
cred a dozen of the Hatfield clan, fully
armed, who had heard of the capture, and
had liquored up and declared their inten-
ton of blowing Cunningham to bits. The
worst they did after contemplating the OBJ
vious readiness of Cunningham's and Glib
sons rifles was to curse compendiousiy,
and assure the captive that they would
derail the train and get him out. He was
taken to Kentucky, confessed and got
life sentence. 1t was afterward discovered
that before joining the Hatfield gang he
had murdered the three children of a man
against whom he had grudge.
Recovered the Boy.
Thereafter whenever Cunningham was
in the southwestern part of the state the
Hatfelds followed him. That they never
succeeded in catching up to him would
seem to indicate lack of zeal on their part,
difficult to reconcile with the fervor of
their threats Three years ago the, mar

drunken revel, one night they had inst1tut-
ed little sport with poor Woodcnopper
named Duffy, which ended characteristic
cally in their driving him into pond,
where he was drowned. His nine-year boy

boys uncle learned of it, and advertised
a reward for the recovery of the child. No
body came forward to apply for the job
until a friend suggested that Mr.. Duffy
write to Dan Cunningham. That official
took three days off, rode alone into the
Hatfield settlement, found the boy at a
house within half mile of Devil Anses
homestead, grabbed him up on his horse,
and galloped away. If the Hatfields fol-
lowed. he did not know 1t. Thus was
spelled an outlaw in the making.
In Gilbert, w. Va, lives Doc Ellis,
well-to-do timber owner. Against him the
notorious Jonce Hatfield had sworn
grudge, for some fancied grievance, and
sent word that he would kill him on sight.
AS it a great detriment to Ellis bust
ness to have a Hatfield cunning for him, he
hireo crack shot named Hopkins to keep
watch for Jonce and shoot first. Neither
Hopkins nor Jonce had had any luck in
their shooting, when Dan Cunningham
came to Gilbert and put up at Ellis house.
Ellis told him of Jonces threat.

which he snapped upon the desperado's
wrists, ending the fight Gillespie con-
fessed to his part in the murders, substan-
tiating the story told by Mrs. Vance. Cum
bingham took him to Kentucky, where he
was tried and convicted, but afterward
broke jail and escaped.
A Daring Enterprise.
While in Pike county, Kentucky, Cum
ningham learned of a plot to bushwhack
and murder Frank Phillips, a partisan of
the Mccoy family. Ellison Hatfield, Black
Elliott Hatfield and Tom Mitchell, murder
ers of the Mccoy children, and also of Miss
Allaphare and Colvin Mccoy, in the attack
on old Randall McCoyS house, had planned
to go from Jim Vance's house, which is a
few miles within the West Virginia line,
over the border into Pike county, and lay
for Phillips there. Cunningham planned a
counter ambush, in which he enlisted Bill
Napier, an experienced hunter, ana a
young man named Gibson, of less expert
ence, but equal ganeness. The marshal
knew that any one of the Hatfield gang
would kill him sight, but that if he
killed any of them he must stand trial for
it, as the state administration of West Nir-
ginia was, for reasons of it's own, friendly
to the Hatfields. 1t looked like dubious
proposition for the three Hatfield men had
Winchesters, but Cunningham determined
TO have try at 1t. He picked out Ellison,
the biggest and most dangerous of the trio,
for himself, assigning Black Elliott to Nap
per and Mitchell to Gibson. Concealing
themselves behind trees, they waited for
their men near a creek bottom, along which
the bushwhackers were sure to come.
When they came Ellison was in the lead,
walking along the bank. Cunningham
stood close behind his tree with a rock in
one hand and his rifle in the other The
other two HatfieldS were distance behind,
while Cunningham's aids were farther up
the bank. When Ellison was within a few
yards of Cunningham, the marshal, moving
slowly around his tree to keep out of sight,
oil
rifle of the desperate was leveled, but be-
fore he could fire the rock took him on the
chin and he wavered for a second. In that
second Cunningham was upon him. At the
same moment Gibson opened fire and Nit CHI
ell and Black Elliott fled back along the
creek bed, pursued by Cunninghams assist
ants, who left him In full confidence that
he could handle Ellison.
Fight for Life.
This proved to be big contract, how
ever. The marshal had wrenched away Ell
lisons gun, by which time the outlaw had
recovered from his surprise and began to
put up a furious fight. The rock had
struck him only a glancing blow, and had
not impaired his powers. He was as big
a man as his antagonist and almost as
strong. At the first wrench after they had
clinched both went over the bank. In the
rocky creek bed they struggled, now in the
water, now out of it, never on their feet,
the Hatfield tearing and biting at his cap
tor like a wild beast, the marshal striving
to get the handouts on his man. Endu-
rance and condition won the battle. Moon

The Dangerous Pursuit Of Deputy
United States Marshal.
HAS CAPTURED -FOUR OF THE CLAN
Deeds of Daring in the Noun
tains of West Virginia.
AT THE RIFLES POINT

Written for The Evening Star
Throughout the northern spurs of the AL
leghanies the name of Hatfield is name
of terror Devil Anse and his clan have
for years and almost with impunity raw
aged the mountain region of four states
Virginia. West Virginia, Kentucky and
Tennessee-with murder, arson and all
other crimes of violence. The murders per-
petrated by them in the Hatfeld-McCoy
feud are only a small part of their crimes.
Nowhere in criminal annals is there an
other family with so bloody a record.
In their own home region of southern
West Virginia their dominance is complete.
There Is a saying there. backed by long
and grim record, that to offend a Hatfield
IS the surest form of suicide. Even the Off
GERS of the law seldom interfere with them,
and though, the aggregate Of indictments
against the clan mounts up into the hum
dreds its members armed to the teeth not
only ride free in their own mountains, but
even visit the cities unmolested when they
choose. If they take a grudge against
man they hunt him to his death, and their
list of victims was long one before any
man, except the McCoys, raiding in re-
prisal from across the border of Kentucky,
dared interfere with them. But now they
are being hunted in their own state by
man who has already captured four of
them and sent one to the gallows. This is
Deputy United States Marshal Daniel w.
Cunningham of the district of West Vir-
ginia.
His First Capture.
Originally Cunningham was a partisan
Of the Hatfelds. He had been recipient
of the surly and dangerous hospitality of
Devil Anse and had heard his side of the
HatfieIdMcC history. Shortly after that
he stayed at the house of Jim Vance. one
