 ford, The Red Eagle"

MONTGOMERY, Ala, March 2s.-A memorial tablet, marking the grave of William Weatherford, the "Red Eagle" of Alabama history is to be erected by the state department of archives and history. according to of ficials of the department.
 The site of the grave of William Weatherford, Creek Indian leader, who is buried in Baldwin county, just south of Little river, has been pre- scented to the department of archives and history. Charles H. Dresibach. nephew of David Tate, who was a half brother of Weatherford. who has for years owned the property, has during the last week deeded it over to the state, it is said.
 Buried at the same place are Weatherford's mother, brother and sister, and an unknown but adopted Indian girl and himself. officials say. They were buried there by David Tate, Weatherford's half brother, who outlived them all.
 William Weatherford was three fourths white. and a quarter Indian, according to historical facts. He was born nine miles north of Montgomery at what is now Coosada Ferry. At the outbreak of the Indian war of 1913, as history details, Weatherford took the lead of the Alabama In dians. and after many daring and thrilling adventures, he surrendered to Andrew Jackson.
 Historians point out the fact that Weatherford took no part in the mas sacre at Fort Mims and opposed such an outrage by the Indians.

SLAYER OF DEPUTY IS CONVICTED THIRD TIME
Clay County Man Gets Years Sen
 tence This Time

LINEVILLE, Ala. March 2S.-(Spc- cial.)-In the case of Northern Lakey, whose trial in the Clay county circuit court ended Tuesday afternoon, the jury found the defendant guilty of manslaughter in the first degree and fixed his punishment at one year in the penitentiary.
 Lakey killed Jim Ramsay, a deputy sheriff of Clay county, while Ram sey, with other officers, was search ing Lakey's premises for prohibited liquor on July .. 1920.
 At the first trial Lakey was found guilty of murder in the second de- gree and his punishment was fixed at 40 years in the penitentiary. After d reversal by the supreme court he was second time convicted of murder in the second degree and his punishment fixed at 17 years in the penitentiary.
 Certain lawyers take the position that Lakey will not serve in the pen itentiary, since the punishment was fixed at only one year in the peniten- tiary and not year and day.
