WEDNESDAY MORNING, DEC. 9, 1808
TJjfi Savannah Tragedy.
From the Xh'miiHj .Vctr.t, of tire 7lli, We ev
tract as follows concerning Hie recent tragedy
near Savannah :
Gcorarc Wanener, sworn andsaith: Yesterday
evening about, a quarter lo lime o'clock, Mr.
Mastiek and myself left his (Mastick’s) house
to go out on tiie Shell road on duly, as special
police. We were to meet a parly at the toll
gate to perloiin patrol or police duty. We
nu t 1I11; party at the 101 l gate, on tlie Skidaway
Shell road, in Cl all,am county. Ttie persons
who composed li e parly which was to perform
police or patrol duty, were Jacob Klein, Henry
Mastiek, Mr. Venn, Frederick llirt, Frederick
Hriekinan, John Quint, Mr. Old, Fritz Broud
h acker, and myself, George Wagener. Weal!
walked up and down Shell road until about a
quarter to eleven o’clock at night, when we
heard a noise just as we were intending to go
home. The noise appeared* to he near
Mr. Sehutz’s liquor store. There was cor,
eiderable ot a lu.ss there. Mr. Broadbacker
and his nii'ii whisiled torus to come back to
the toll gate. We went back aud found
Broadlueker’s party again. We walked a
short distance towards town, and met a parly
of about live or six negro men. Broadbacker
walked up to them and caught bold of one ot
the negroes, and asked him who made the
noise. The negro said I don’t know. Mr.
Dro.idbneker tejd Mr. Mastiek and myself to
nohl the man that he had caught, and lie
would get another one. As soon ns Mr.
Broadbacker stepped away from us, a large
party of negro,« came up toward us; and as
soon as Broadbacker got hold of auother ne
gro man, the negroes commenced firing upon
us. The first shot fired by the negroes killed
the deceased, Mr. Bioadi acker. After that,
the negroes all commenced bring upon ns,
and we returned the tire. There were only
four or five of our {.arty who had firearms.
Two had guns and the other three bad
revolvers. As soon as our ammunition was
exhausted we retreated through the field on
the Soutli side ot the road. I heard the ne
groes shouting and screaming, and calling to
us—come bae.v again, you- . i
heard one negro say ■ 0! leave that man
alone, he’s gone now. Another said : 1 waul
revenge on the • I heard this
while we were retreating. After the crowd of
negroes wont off, three of us went, hack to the
Shell road, and there we met two others of our
party. Mr. Klein, Mr. Ohl and myself went
back to see whether there was any wouudcd.
We heard somebody hallooing. We halted
several tinx-s to listen and ascertain whether
it was any of our parly. Somebody whistled—l
believe it was Mr. Briekman—aud halloeod,
“Come on, hoys, I'm a lriend.” We walked
up to him and found him lying in the field, a
little way off' from the Shell road, wounded.
He told us to get a wagon and cnrry him home.
Mr Ohl and myself went to Mr. Broadhacker’s
house olid got. a wagon, and brought them
home. Broadbaeker we found lying dead in
the road Quint was carried to Mr. flirt’s
house, lie was wounded. Mr. Mastick was
wounded, and walked home.
i saw Mr. Mastick this morning, and he was
wounded.
The killing of Mr. Broadtmcker was on the
sth of December, 1865, about 11 o’clock. The
crowd was so large, and it was so very dark
tint i did not see Mr. Broadbaeker fall. There
were at least thirty or forty negroes. He was
a I,t tie ahead of our party, about twenty feet in
advance of us. After we retreated, one of the
negroes followed Mr. Hirt into the field and
shot at us five or six Hines. The firing sound
ed as though done with a pistol. The negroes
were coming out of town when we diet them.
They were making a great deal of disturbance.
The negroes fired first upon ns. They all
seemed to be armed, judging by their shoot
ing. Our parly were acting ns special police,
appointed by (he Mayor of Savauunb, and ail
except myself and Mr. Hirt had city police
badges on. Sixty or*snventy shots were fired
at us. 1 know, of my own knowledge, that
there is a special police force out in this neigh
borhood, to preserve the pea ?e in the suburbs
of the city, and protect the public roads, &c
I have seen them act as such frequently. Mr.
Broadbaeker was a member of tint police
force, and was in the discharge of his duty last
night.
Henry H. Martiek sworn and saith: I was
one of the special policemen on duty last
night, the sth of December, 1868. I was in
company with Frederick Broadbaeker, and
others. There were nine of ns altogether.
We went from my house, and tip through the
toll gate, towards town. VVe heard some
noise on the road, just at the tinic we had con
cluded to break up and return home. There
was a crowd of negroes eomiug up, whooping
aud yelling, and we went towards them. De
ceased, some one of our party and myself stop
ped one of the negroes, and arrested him.
Broadbaeker left me, and went ahead towards
the crowd of negroes, and I heard the firing of
guns. From fifty to one hundred shots were
fired At that time! still had one of the ne
groes in my custody. I was shot then in
three place*. (Wounds exhibited.) I tried
to carry efi the negro that I had to secure and
keep him as a prisoner, but could not do it.
Briekman told me that he was shot, and asked
®vi-tt)cckli) Constitutionalist.
me to help him. He said: Mastiek, come and
kelp me, lam shot. I said : Brickman, I am
shot myself; look out for yourself as well as
you can. I did not know that Broadbacker
was killed until this morning. After 1 was
shot, 1 went towards my house. When I got
near Venn’s house, I heard negroes curse aud
abuse him, and threaten to set his house ou
tire. They halted th.ere, and struck matches.
They went along the road ■ cursing, whooping
and yelling, and said: “Come out, you
police, you!” When they got tp my house
they said : “ Come out, you red-headed
Mastiek !” I have no idea how many negroes
were present when the firiug first occurred.
It was very dark. There were about fifteen in
the party who came dowu to Verm’s house and
mine, after the tiring. I was close to this party,
hut they did not sec me. The shot which struck
ine came fron the crowd of negroes towards
which Mr. Broadbacker went. I was shot
while I was holding the negro* I think some
of the shot struck him as be cried out as if he
was hurt. The tiring came trom all directions
in frout of us. 1 I saw where the shot which
struck me came from. I saw the man standing
on the right hand side of the road. I think
the same man shot me aud Brickman. Broad
backer went towards the negro by himself.
The gun which shot me was loaded with buck
shot. The shot came from the North side of
the Skidaway Shell road. The negroes were
coining from town when we met them. The
road wus full ot men. Their conduct was very
violent. I think that they were country ne
groes belonging on the farms around the city.
I was in charge of the police force. Mr Broad
baeker acted under my orders; w# conducted
ourselves in a quiet and peaceable manner in
the performance of our duty. We gave the
negroes no cause for an attack upon us. If
they had not fired upon us first, we would not
have fired upon them. Our only object in be
ing out was to preserve the public peace. The
general conduct of the negroes in iKfe neigh
borhood has been preUv. had, which was the
reuson why we asked ™yor Anderson to or
ganize the special police force.
Joseph Olil sworn and saith : I was present
when Mr. Broadbacker was killed ; about eleven
o’clock last night. He was killed by a negro.
The negro was within a lew yards of him. I
was about seven or eight steps trout Broad
hacker when he was killed. The negro was
very close to him. He was shot with a gun.
J saw the flash when he fired, i saw Mr.
Broadbacker fall. There were at least thirty or
lortv shots fired by the negroes. The first was
fired by a negro. Four of our party were shot
—three were wounded and one killed.
The jury having heard this evidence retired
for deliberation, and returned a verdict as fol
lows ;
“ We, the jury, find from the evidence given
before ns, that the deceased, Frederick Broad
backer, came to his death while in the discharge
of his duty as a special policeman, on the TIIIIII
- road, in the county of Chatham, from
gunshot wounds in the head, received from a
gun in the hands of a negro, one of a party
who were disturbing the peace on Thunderbolt
Shell road ; and we earnestly recommend that
the Stale and county authorities take action in
order to protect, the citizens of this county
■ from the brutalities of the negro population.”
THE DECEASED,
Frederick Broadbacker, the. victim of Ibis
terribly tragic affair, was a native of Germany,
and was born near ttie city of Mayence, on the
Khiue, in llesse Darmstadt. He was thirty-two
years and five months old, anil Jiad been in this
country eleven years. He. came over here and
remained a year, then returned to Mayence,
was married, and returned hack with his wife.
He has long been known as a market gardener,
and his place on Lover’s Lane has always been
a favorite resort. He had erected a fine saloon
there, which he kept in Hie German style, had
a handsome dancing hall, and his place tvff*
much frequented by citizens. JTe was a quiet
and peaceab'e man, a member of the Germania
Fire Company, of the Turnvercin Society and
DcKalh Rifles. lie leaves a wife and lour
children, the youngest being but four months
old. He was much respected in the commu
nity, and a favorite among the Germans.
THE OTHER WOUNDED MEN-THEIR CONDITION.
John "quIW. IS air-o a gardener. It, Will hr
remembered thot din ing a heavy thunder storm
last Summer, his house was struck bv light
ning, and one of his children killed. Quint is
mortally wounded, and was considered past re
covery last night.
Frederick Brickman is also a gardener, re
siding on Lover’s Lane. lie was in a very had
condition, and should lie -recover, which is
doubtful, bo will probably lie crippled for life.
The wound was so small that it could not be
pruned. Both men are being attended by Dr.
Read.
Mastiek was not very badly wounded, and
although suffering considerable pain, was able
to he about yesterday.
THE PARTY Os MURDERERS
was composed of country negroes entirely, and
they marched off down the country, after ac
complishing their deadly purpose. There may
have been some of the Bryan Row vagabonds
among them.
INDIO NATION AMONG CITIZENS.
The tragedy created great exeitonrtmt and
indignation among the citizens, especially
among the German population. Woe to any
parly or gang that attempts any such thing
hereafter.

MEASUP.ES FOll SAFETY.
We have time and again called upon the Cily
Council to provide a special force of mounted
men for the protection of the outskirts of the
city. Such a force, to tie employed day and
night, is imperatively needed, and should he
organized at once. The oily and county should
unite, in this project, and have no delay about
it. Our public highways are no longer safe ; it
is dangerous to reside without the city, in llie
present condition of affairs. Such a force
would cause these negroes to cease their vil
lainous, murderous acts, by making it unsafe
for them to 'commit, crime. But above all
should we strive to secure the emigration of
white men. of Germans, Scotch and Irish, to
this section, that the country may become
thickly settled with white men.
We have presented the details of this feftrfui
occurrence at length. The statements of all
parties prove it to have been a regularly, or
ganized plot to murder. The patrol euard,
part of them armed, were ambuscaded and shot
dowu without provocation, and even the dead
body was kicked and beaten. The negroes iay
in the bushes with murder in Iheir hearts; and
they perpetrated one of ihe most fearful crimes
ever heard of in this section. Mav they be
brought to justice is the prayer of citizens, and,
though they may escape for a time, sooner or
later “ murder will out,” and the punishment
is sure to come.
