DESERTER SHOT
Private Henry Dickinson of
Third Georgia.
ftESISFiND ARREST.
While Preparing to Give Pur
suers Warm Reception.
Griffin, Ga., Oct. 14.—11. 11.
Dickinson, a deserter from com
pany B. Third Georgia regiment,
was shot at an early hour yes
terday morning and will prob
ably die from the effects of the
wound.
The shooting occurred at
Dickinson’s home near Luella,
while he was resisting arrest by
a squad sent to bring him back
to Camp Northerm
At 1 o’clock yesterday morn
ing a squad composed of Corpor
al Gossett, Privates Jenkins,
Marsh and Dallas, left this city
for the purpose of arresting
Dickinson, who was known to
be at his father’s home near
Luella. The party hoped to make
the arrest without any trouble,
but they had orders from their
officers to bring the deserter
back if he was found, and they
were prepared to obey orders.
It was 3 o’clock before the
Dickinson place was reached,
and Corporal Gossett placed his
men around the house and
awaited the coming of day, when
it was expected Dickinson would :
come out.
All was as silent as the grave
in the former’s cottage. Without
nothing but the sighing of the
winds through the pines and an
occasional note from some feath-
ered songster broke the stillness
of the morning hours. The land
scape was bathed in the bright
and balmy effulgence of morn,
but the quietude was soon to be ;
broken by the report of a rifle |
and the dying groans of a human
being.
When the inmates of the house
awoke they must have detected '
the presence of the determined
guard surrouding the place, for I
the door opened and Dickinson '
and two other deserters, Moore
and Kitchens, stepped out heav
ily armed with Winchester rifles
and pistols.
Corporal Gossett recognized i
the men and called on them to j
surrender, which command they '
disregarded. Some tried to make ;
their escape, but Dickinson
raised his winchester to fire upon
Gossett as soon as he could get
1 a shot. A brother of Dickinson’s
> came out of the house and hap
pened to get between Dickinson
■ and Gossett, and Gossett was
unable to use his Springfield
without shooting an innocent
man.
Private Marsh saw the dan
ger threatening his officer, and
remembering the orders, raised
his rifle to his shoulder, took a
hasty aim and pressed the trig
ger. There was a loud report,
and without a cry Dickinson
sank to the ground.
In the confusion that followed •
the other deserters fled to the!
woods and made their escape.
The corpcral and his squad
went to the fallen man and
found him mortally wounded.
The bullet entered Dickinson’s
neck just at the base of the
i skull and came out oThis jaw, '
tearing one side of his face al- !
most entirely away. <
At last accounts Dickinson 1
was alive, but his chances for <
recovery are very slim. I
Corporal Gossett brought his 1

squad back to Camp Northen
and reported the affair to the
officers, and while it is deeply
regretted by all, Marsh was jus
tifiable in what he did.
Dickinson was about twenty
three years of age and left camp
over six weeks ago.
