Lake-a little body Of water noted for
its fish and game. Hitherto the peo-
pie around enjoyed the fishing privi-
lcges of the lake: but when the and
company came into control 1t put an
end to these privileges. This led to
the formation Of Night Rider bands
among those to whom the fishing privi-
leges Of the lake were denied and the
visitation by them Of summary ven
geance upon all those who either had
sold their property to the land com
pany or sympathized with 1t. Last Oc-
tober Capt. Rankin and Judge Tay-
Tor visited Walnut Lodge o. the shores
OF Reelfoot Lake. The Night Riders
seized them and carried them off into
the woods where Captain Rankin a
hanged. Judge Taylor escaped by
jumping in the darkness into a projec-
ton of the lake and swimming to the
opposite shore.
After this murder Gov. Patterson
and other State officials began war on
the Night Riders. Troops We're poured
into the region and hundreds of ar

conviction Of eight OF the Night Rid
