HOW IT WAS DONE.
All About the Escape and
Of Dr. J. M. Glover.
1 have been asked to tell the
st ory, as everybody wants to
all about the matter. On
1 l»e 3d inst., Jailer Hatheock and
family attended church at
Roads. 1 his was also au all-dav
singing, and everybody eat dinner at
the church. I went home with
Hatheock for dinner. After
he asked me to open the doors and
he would feed the prisoners. In
company with Rill Garrison 1 tin-
locked the jail doors, and on enter-
ing the hall Thomas Cary said tome,
“There is no one to feed but me.”
1 asked where they were, and he re-
plied they were gone, that they made
wooden keys to unlock the cells. He
showed me one of the keys. I asked
him why he did not leave with them,
and he said, “I have not done any¬
thing to ran from. After they left
1 locked the doors and went back to
lied.” f asked him if he knew the
intentions, or direction they would
take. He said lie did not, only they
WCre pledged to stick together, and
Glover promised to pay expenses
liceder w ould stay with him. He
6 lid Glover lias had tin* keys for some
time. I started Hatheock to Haf-
mony Grove to telegraph to different
poins the escape, and to offer a re-
Word of *100 for the capt ure of
er. I went to John Williams, three
lories from town, and arrested Glov-
er’s paramour and carried her to John
Manley’s, on my place. After a talk
with ex-sheriff McConnell tve thought
best to get John Williams to steal
the woman, and under promise of
getting her and Glover together, find
out if she knew anything of him. But.
sue knew nothing of him. McCon¬
nell and myself spent Sunday night
around Williams’. After Ordinary’s
court was over the next day 1 learned
that the parties were seen Sunday
evening near M. A Herndon's, I
went to the place. Nath King, col.,
paid they stopped at his house and
eat dinner, and Glover offered a ten
dollar Dill in payment, but could not
inake the change. I followed on till
flight, but hearing nothing more, re-
turned home to take.* a new start.
At night ex*Sheriff McConnell of-
fered Ids services in the hunt, and we
agreed to meet at S. K. Cannon’s af-
ter dark. On my way to Cannon's 1
met a negro, who told me, after 1 had
promised not to tell his name,
Glover and Reeder were seen Sunday
flight near Lavonia. In company with
Tom Williams, who lives 011 my
and two hound dogs, I went on and
Woke up Mr. Cannon, and he said
McGonfleH had gone 011 to Oscar
Cannon. Mr. 0. agreed to go with
us, and with Oscar joining us we all
proceeded to the Reader country, 7
or S miles below Lavonia. Below
Lavonia we secured the services of
Tom Pool, who knew all the country.
Seeing Aaron, Reeder, col., he knew
nothing. A little girl spoke up and
said she “saw Bunk and that other
man at Mr. Sam Weldon’s this even¬
ing, and he showed Mrs. Weldon lots
of money and wanted to stay around
there three or four day’s till things
got quiet.” Then Aarons family all
knew where they were. Leaving
Aaron’s house guarded bv
we proceeded to IF el don’s, and after
a search just before day Tuesday
morning, found no one besides Airs.
BVldtm and the children. After
the search Sam walked up, and I told
him my business, lie said Glover
and Bunk came to his house the day
before and eat dinner aitd left. I
asked him what lie lying out for, and
he said it did look suspicious, and he
would ,, tel! „ the truth ..11 about . it. lre it
said lie had whiskey to sell, and was
waiting for some parties to come af-
ter it. Then we told him that we
wanted some whiskey, and got us a
pint, for which wc paid him 30 cents.
Sam was then told what Glover was
charged with, and I told him and his
wife if thev would locate Glover
would give n them $50, and not give
them _ I told my squad , I T he- ,
away.
lieved Glover was in the vicinity, and
that I would stay there if McConnell
would go back and sell the lauds ad-
vertised . for . sale. 1 He ir agreed 1 to . go.
”
The balance of the squad agreed . to .
stav with rmo. I sent Pool to Knox
bridge, * and found they had not gone
across there. 1 then employed a rie-
|" ro " 1|0 >* a ^auto iimt county,
f„ r n< , V or told me a single lie, I le
soon Icarnoil that Heldon had seen
; Glover after I left him, and had giv-
him breakfast. 1 told the negro to
tell Heldon 1 had some dogs and
would get Glover if he put his feet
on the ground. Glover then made
an agreement through Heldon with
the negro to carry him to South Car¬
olina that night, lie was to let me
know the road he was going, and I
was to pick Glover up on the way,
but the Lavonia crowd came in and
searched the house, and broke us up.
I That night we laid around, and got
I meals at Mycr's, on Reeder's place,
a plum gentleman, who did all he
j could for to. The next morning my
1 nc ' v " np P m 8akl h< * km> "' h<* was not
! gone, thought he was in some house,
but did not know; thought he might
j be in a large cane brake near by, hut
- was satisfied he was not gone, Then
we went to Lavonia for a crowd to
search the can? brake. Ifatcheock
and McConnell came down and
|ed the squad of 50 or GO to take in
the cane brake. I sent to Hartwell
for Sheriff [.card, who had a warrant
i against Heldon for soling whiskey,
and thought we might press him to
time, for I could not get a word from
him about the whereabouts of Glov-
j er. I left Leard and his bailiff at the
lion.se, and searched the cane brake,
but made no discovery. 1 h;ul be¬
fore made a close search of the house.
After our return to the house Leard
said Heldon would tell all, and give
his help that night if Leard would
help him at Hart court, but said
Heldon would not do anything un¬
less I would take my crowd away,
which I agreed to do, but just as we
were leaving Vickery and Brooks
, came up and told me two oi’ the IIol-
j brook hoys said a negro told them
j that Glover .was in the garret of an
old drug store. The Holbrooks were
j in Lavonia to learn if the reward was
good, and Vickery and Brooks came
j to save me the reward and be at the
capture. I went into the garret, and
| it was dark as night. I struck a
' match anil found his pallet, sheep
a
skin, hod quilt, a bottle of water, a
plate and knife and folk. 1 struck
several matches and went all over
the place, but could not see Glover,
he being wedged between the ceiling
and girders, with a black quilt over
him. 1 came down and with Oscar
Cannon searched the dwelling, and
found a fresh-made hole on the roof,
which led us to think Glover was up
there. A lookout was kept on the
drug store, as he might be up the
chimney or in some hole about the
house. I saw Leard and Weldon
j have a talk while 1 was on the house,
and when they parted Leard went to
the drug store, climbed to the garret,
without any light, and came down
with Glover. The fact of the bitsi-
ness is Weldon give Glover to Slier-
iff Leant in order to get all the favor
he could from Leard in Hart superior
court. Weldon lives at the Dr.
Webb old place, in Hart county, now
i owned by Wrn. Edwards. I have
; nothing to say disrespectfully of
Sheriff Leard. I think he is a good
man, and meant nothing but for the
! god of his eonntrv. As to Sam Wel-
don, he and his wife harbored Dr.
: Glover from Monday till Wednesday
evening, and lied from beginning to
| end, and ought to lie prosecuted by
' the good people of Hart county. I
was around his house from Tuesday
morning till the capture.
