FOR AWFUL CRH
Crime Committed En
Route From Mobile
to N. C. Port
Special to Tho Georgian.
Wilmington. N. C„ July Henry
Scott, the first of Iba three negro mu*
tinners of the schooner Harry A. Ber-
"Ind, paid tho penalty on the gallow
liere today. ‘ The schooner was bound
from Mobile to this port last October,
when tho crime was committed.
Scott's noi'oinpllivs, H.'hert Sawyer
and Arthur Adams, are under sentence.
It was on October 18 last that the
four-masted schooner Harry A. Ber-
wlnd, her decks and cabins splotched
with blood, was towed ■ Into Southport
by Wilmington tugs. Aboard was a
jrlie crew of the New York schooner
Bloncho H. King, In charge of the three
ntnu kind sad cowering negroes who
were charged with having mutinied
and killed in cold blood the captain.
mala and a fellow shipmate.
The story In detail It a bloody and,
terrible one, surpassing almost the
Imnglnntlon of writers of the most
lurid tales ot the sea. Sawyer mid
Adams were tried Jointly and convict
ed largely on the testimony of Scott,
who took tho stand against them. Scott
told the story of tho voyage of the Ber
wind, from the time she left Phlladel
>hla In July, with the same crew
“lift ill .UOi W 1*1, Hum Clew on
joard as at the time of the mutiny, go
ing to Cardenas, Cuba, and thence to
Mobile. Soon after leaving Philadel
phia, he said, there was trouble with
tho food, which continued all through
the voyage, becoming worse after tho
vessel left Cardenas for Mobile. The
members of tho crew were Captain Ed
win B. RumllL whose home was In
Maine; John Hall, mate; Smith, engi
neer; Folby, cook: John 8. Coakley,
negro sonmnn, all of whom were mur
dered, and the three negroes, Adams,
Sawyer and Scott.
At Mobile, Scott said, all of the .crew
Iwent ashore, and Adams, Coakley and
Sawyer bought revolvers at a pawn
shop, telling him (Scott) that they
were going to "fix” the officers of the
schooner If they had any more trouble.
Scott sail
"On Friday night, October 6, off the
Florida Straits, a storm struck us and
carried away our foretonsall. The last
time I saw Captain Rumll! was on
Monday night at 8 o'clock. On Tues
day morning Sawyer was on the look
out and Adams at tho wheel.
“About 4:80 o'clock the whistle blew
nnd I went to the cook to get the cof
fee pot. Hall, the mate, was sitting
there drinking coffee, and the steward
wns (n the galley. I took the coffee pot
and went to the forecastle. When I
went In Adams was lying down on a
bench nnd Sawyer was sitting ~y a ta
ble rending. I went aft to the wheel to
relieve Coakley, and hp sold he was
going forward to give the cook h—I. In
a fow minutes I saw Coakley come
back and he and the steward had some
ard. I saw Hall, the mate, coming
Coakley turned the cook loose and
grabbed Hall and shot him three times.
Sawyer ran up and grabbed the stew
ard.
"When I heard ItT r»n on the star
board side, and Coakley had the mate,
throwing him overboard. Sawyer fired
two ahota Into the steward. During
this time Adams was wrestling with
the engineer, and when Coakley and
Sawyer had thrown the mate and cook
overboard they came to Adams’ assist
ance and each of th*m fired two shots
Into the engineer. Then they threw
him overboard.
"After supper Sawyer said; *We will
take the water tank and put It li
the-big boat and let It go adrift, am
when we are near land with the vessel
we will water-log her.' Then we could
say that there were eight of us In
the small boat and she capstsed and
swamped, and we swam back to the
vessel. I apposed the plan and they
all Jumped on me, knocked me down
and tied me with chains. In trying to
release myself, I shot and killed Coak
ley. Adama and Sawyer overpowered
me and tied me again. Then they
hoisted the distress signal. That night
the schooner King took us off and put
us In chains."
The testimony of the officers and
crew of the schooner King as to the
state of things on board the Berwlnd
when they picked her up agreed with
the story as Scott left It. The four
white men of the crew were missing,
and the body of one negro (Coakley)
was on the deck, while Scott was
bound with chalne.
