jug which they said tbey had hid there. An anon as
they were out of the sight of passers by, the white
demanded tbe negroes’ money. Or.e of the ne
groes refused to deliver bis mousy, and the white
men shot him through tho heart with a derringer
p'stol. The other negro was then ordered to deliver
or die. He surrendered what money he had, only a
dollar and ten cents, SDd was allowed to run. Tho
one that was killed had forty-five dollars in money,
a watch and a pi*tol, aT of which were taken. The one
