Kansas Crimes.
THE BENDEB UBiTEUBD A SEQUEL- A
FROM TUX EiBLT H1STOBT OT
IJCAVENWOBTH CITY—
S. M. in San Francisco Bulletin.
On© warm, moonlight Friday evening in
June, 1857, I sat, with Colonel Elias S. Den
nis, on the doorstep of a certain law office in
Leavenworth, Kansas. We were both United
States Government officials, and, both com
ing from Illinois, were therefore “clannish”
toward each other. He was the United
States Marshal of the Territory, and I was—
well, no matter what As we were smoking
and talking idly about this, that or anything
else, a friend came trotting along, who hur
riedly asked us if we had seen a man rush by.
“Yes,” we told him, “and he turned round the
next corner on the opposite side of the street’*
“because,” said he, “he has killed a mau at
the spring near the Planters 5 Iloase;” and he
himself then started off on a run.
We were but a block or two away from the
Planters’ House. The hotel was situated al
most close to the west bank of the Missouri,
and very near the steamboat landing. Quite
a short distance from it within & few rods of
■ river, was a spring. A icahJe servant of
kptelhad, after di^fiiC* taken a tin pail
»heard groans from the
etion of the stream; then laid down her
pail, and silently, without a Blight scream
even, hastened to her kitchen with an alarm.
In a few minntes a number of men gathered at
the spot to see a poor creature endeavoring to
crawl out of tho water to dry land. He was
tenderly drawn out, but, attempting to point
to a stab between his shoulders, gasped twice
and died.
When Colouel Dennis and myself arrived
at the scene of the murder, a number of gen
tlemen and others had seen some one ran,
with extended foot-prints, away. Another
fellow had been caught concealing gold coin
underneath the contiguous rock. And still
another had been captnred, who was found
lurking suspiciously in the neighborhood. In
the lapse of time since then, many interven
ing events have excluded the names of the
three parties referred to from my memory.
The first wretch mentioned, however, carried,
I am rather sure, the name of Daly. The
ether two, for the purpose of convenience in
this narrative. I will name respectively, Pen
nyroyal and Bottle; bnt with no intent, even
the most remote, to reflect upon any family
who may possibly bear the cognomen of eith
er, and equally as assuredly not to make
mockery of the tragedy and the graveyard
business concerning which I now write.
The history of this immediate affair was
this: A laboring man bad come up to Leaven
worth from Kansas City, with $193 in his
pocket He encountered, at bis landing,
Daly, who took him to see Mrs. Daly to have
a quiet drink with her. After remaining
drugged for awhile in “ the place,” but
where, however, be did not entirely lose his
senses, he was invited by his host to accom
pany him and two friends down to a spring
near the water’s edge, where they could
drink cold water, and bathe their heads aud
become sober again. Reaching the spring,
Daly stooped down and sucked in the fluid
with Lis lips, then Pennyroyal, then Bottle,
then the dazed stranger. As soon as bis lips
touched tLe water, a blow with a loaded cane
iu the hands of Daly knocked him senseless.
A stab with a Urge dirk knife in the hands of
Pennyroyal gave him, between the shoulders,
his mortal wound. The three then tossed
him into the Missouri. He was crawling ont,
groaning, when the self-possessed servant
girl hastened back silently to the hotel to
bring him relief.
The store rooms of the Planters' House, the
Shaw nee House, and of the International were
at that time piled up witn luggage unclaimed
by guests from “everywhere,” who had unac
countably disappeared, and, after leaving
either hotel, who had never after been heard
of. Free State men, and pro-slaveryites alike
vent the mysterious way. Bodies of unknown
men were quite frequently found in the yellow
flow of the Missouri before they reached the
Mississippi. Everybody was convinced that
the murders were not the result of the feuds
between the two great rival and vindictive
parties of the territory. This Planters’ House
spring assassination startled the city into a
horrible suspicion. Daly was arrested imme
diately. There was not much sleep in town
th it short moonlight night. When morning
caoie Bottle was taken by a selected number
of inhabitants to an island midway in the
stream, a rope, swung over a limb of a cotton
w^od, w.is put around his neck. It was then
demanded of him that he confess his other
Crimes, and reveal the names of his confeder
ates. Although in such an awful predica
ment, he absolutely refused.
Without more ado he was strung up some
live or six feet from the ground and left dang
ling for awhile. He managed, however, not
being bound, to reach the rope above him
with his bands, which gave him of course con
siderable relief. Presently ho was lowered to
the eaith again, and again the previous de
mand was made of him. He still stubbornly
refused to answer any questions. He was
now bound and hauled np the second time.
After writhing in agony a very short time he
was let down once more. He had the nerve
to endure the terriblo torture a third time.
Then, lying exhausted on the ground, he
gave way. He would reveal everything, he
►aid, on the condition that he should be al
lowed to escape. The boon was granted,
stimulants afforded him, and he commenced
practically hi« horrible revelations.
PLANTED WITH CORPSES—PI a>XJC VX OPERATION.
••Come this way,” said he faintly; and
taking the party to a certain spot on the
island, he continued: “Dig down here.” Just
below the snrface of the earth a corpse was
found.
“Now, corne here!” anil a short distance
uway he again said: “Dig down here.” And
another decomposed body was found.
“Now come around this bend! Dig here.”
And the third dead human being was un-
earthed.
“That’s all I know of here,*' said be. “We
used to chuck most of them we killed into the
river. When a gentleman was uncommonly
well known we buried him. We had a man at
each of the principal hotels to investigate new
arrivals. Bat go with me now over to the
brickyard near Leavenworth, and I’ll show you
some more; and then I’ll tell you the names
of the gang.
At tho brickyard, the number of graves
found ran a considerable way into the teens.
The gang of cut-throats counted up, first and
last, twenty-three. Some well-known citi
zens, who had been considered respectable,
were implicated iu the atrocious deeds. One
named Woods, who kept a wood-yard eight
miles below, and who had a good bank ac
count in Smoot, Russell &. Co.’s bank, was
captnred. All the others escaped. I
tended to leave for a distant town on Satur
day morning, but Col. Dennis—and neither
of us went over to the island to witness the
torture of Bottle—induced me to remain
in the city until Monday. Woods had paid
me, for service* rendered to another party,
a snm of money in bank notes a couple of
days tefore. It is now ascertained that he
was not only a murderer, but the head of a
gang of counterfeiters also. These two cir
cumstances aided my friend’s entreaty. My
bank notes were, however, genuine. There
was but* one man in Leavenworth that day
who did not share in the fearful exasperation
of the remainder of the population. That man
was Judge Lecompte, after whom the town of
Lecompton was named. The jaibwas besiged,
the sheriff defending it merely for the pur
pose of doing his duty. Judge Lecompte
harangued Die crowd, entreating earnestly
that the prisoners might be brought before
him lor trial. “ What!” exclaimed the old
man Skaggs, a prominent citizen, and as ultra
a pro-slavery man as the Judge himself:
“What! before you* When did you ever let a
man guilty of crime be convicted? Oh, go !
go ! and don’t stand up there like an antiqua
ted fool, and make a ridiculous ass of your
self. We all know you. Stop your blab, and
put that pocket handkerchief to your nose in
stead of your eyes, you contemptible old hy-
^ite.” And as Skaggs went on, the entire
of the city, except, of course,
GovernffiOiV **d judicial officials, cheered
him uproariously at the close of every odg of
his many pointed sentences.
lynching the murderers.
saying that Daly promised in return for the
favor, to betray more secrets. The request
was granted, and, under a strong guard, the
wretch was conducted back to the jail.
Now came Pennyroyal’s turn. He uttered
no word, bnt resisted his captors with vicioos
determination. As his feet left the earth, he
clutched frantically at the rope overhead, and
clung to it, as he dangled in the air several
minntes. At length some one seized his feet,
and, jerking him down, broke his neck. Daly,
when safe in the jail again, thought himself
secure this time, and laughed derisively at his
previous captors.
Within an hoar he was lying on the ground
under the cottonwood tree beside Peonyroyal.
Woods was taken that evening; but until
morning was given him to settle up his affairs
in this world. He was kept a close prisoner
in the upper story of an old wooden structure,
which was entered by means of a flight of
rickerty stairs from the outside. The build
ing was near the edge of tho river. Sun
day camo and with it a lull in the excite
ment Woods sent for mo early in the
morning to assist other gentlemen in the
drawing op of his will aud otherwise set
tling his affairs on earth. I was with him
until late in the afternoon The crowd
below was boisterously threatening all the
while, but it was danger to life lor a large
number of persons to ascend the rickety stairs
at once. The following morning I was as
much Astonished as any one to learn that the
officers of the law had succeeded in reaching
him, in getting him out into a boat from the
rear of the building, and in conveying him
away to a safe place several miles above, at a
place called Kickapoo.
So the reader now knows why I call the
Bender graveyard a sequel.
—
Graveyard Wit.—An Irishman who had
been employed at the cemetery some time
since, went to Washington to draw his pay.
After receiving the amount the paymaster,
discovering a sabre cot on his tace, remarked:
“You were in the army during the war?”
“Yes,” said ho. “What command were you
in?” “In General Fitz Hugh Lee’s com
mand. sir.” “Did you have the audacity to
apply to a Federal cemetery for work when
you were in the rebel army?” “Yes,” re
plied the Irishman; “I helped kill them, so I
thought I had a right to help bury them.”

Daly and Pennyroyal were torn from the

dragged violently through tho streets, the
crowd jeering after them, to a large cotton
wood tree that stood Dear the intersection of
North Leavenworth and Booth Leavenworth.
Woods was not canght until evening. Daly
was the first to be executed. Jnet as ho was
about to be elevated, a bold ringleader in the
innltitadinoae assemblage rushed forward,
took the noose from hie neck and entered
into an animated conversation with him. The
ringleader then begged that the prisoner be
