spicuous work in the reeapture Of the
notorious escape convict, Riley
Hutchinson, he received a letter from
Capt. D. J. Griffith, superintendent Of
the State penitentiary, warmly
thanking him, in which Capt. Grit
fifth said: II have come TO the con-
clusion that when you get behind one
of these fellows he wi. certainly be

For his work in the detection and
conviction of the murderer of the old
negro, Wash Young, in Laurens coun-

Cooper warmly commencing his
work. Solicitor Cooper said in that
letter: II have no hesitation in say

up this case did one Of the cleverest
and cleanest pieces of detective work
that has ever come under my obser-

The enviable reputation which
Sheriff Buford has made is evidenced

which it was stated that the sheriff
of Lee county ''is perhaps the young
