After killing the sheriff, Carriere succeeded in remaining at liberty for ■a month, although pursued through canebrakes and swamps gnd was cap tured only after he had been severely wounded. He was tried and found guilty of murder the following Octo ber. The state supreme court affirm ed the verdict and Governor Pleasants set October 19 as the date for the ex ecution. The case attracted widespread at tention throughout Louisiana and neighboring states because of ths prominence of Sheriff Swords, one of the state’s leading politicians, and because of Carriere’s reputation as a “bad man.” The latter had served two terms in the penitentiary for 'stealing and receiving stolen prop ,' erty. Sheriff Swords had befriended him on several occasions, and when 'captured Carriere expressed regret that he had killed him, saying he I would not have done so if Swords had not taken negroes to help capture him. The sheriff, accompanied b ya depu ty, three citizens and three .njegra guides, surrounded Carriere in a cabin just at dawn after residents of the ' Mallett woods had informed!! im that I the fugitive was terrorizing the neigh borhood. Carriere fled into a corn field, carrying a rifle, and was closely pursued by the sheriff and his dep uty. In a runnig fight, the deputy was shot and two guides were wound ed, and the sheriff shot through the heart. Carriere escaped unwounded. A month later Carriere was brought to bay in an abandoned sawmill near Basile, La., sixty miles away, and was captured with more than 20 buck shot wounds in his body.
