to put things in order before that event ^
occurred ; and old Tom prepared to listen. ^

THE BOGGAN CASH INQUEST.
The inquest on the body of W. Boggan
'ash was concluded at Cheraw on Tuesday
he 20th instant, and the verdict rendered,
'he jury was composed of J. W. Huntley,
ireman; H. W. Finlayson, A. B. Grant,
\ H. Brock, H. W. Harrow, J. D. Chaplan,
Thomas E. Wannamaker, C. A. Brock,
ohn Prophet, W. S. Jackson, K. C. Timions,
W. H. Malloy, H. M. Tomlinson, S.
?, Reid. The following is a complete reort
of the testimony as taken:
E. T. King, being sworn, says: I was
eputized by the sheriff of Chesterfield couny
by order of the solicitor to arrest Boggan
!ash. I summoned a posse by virtue of
tie order, and went to Boggan Cash's place,
rot there about daybreak. Halted my men
a the road about a hundred yards before I
.if f/i r'ooVi'c linncp n.nri tolifl them : "If
VW l/v VMOJU U vvt^v
ou find Boggan do not hurt Boggan if you
an help it." I stationed them (the party)
round the house and lot. I stationed Mr.
I. D. Hendrix on the opposite side of the
ouse in the road, Mr. J. S. Sellers and W.
l. Johnson south of the house, I placed Mr.
V. H. Hilton and Mr. Avery at the gate
orth. Mr. Henry Jackson and myself
-ere at the southwest corner. While I j
ras placing the guard Mr. Jackson said to
le, "Some one came to the frontdoor of the
arn." I came back to Hilton and Avery
nd told them that somebody was in the
arn loft. I then went back to Jackson and
black man passed through the front gate
> the lot, ana when he got to the stable I
eard some person speak to him (the black
lan). Jackson remarked: "I think that is
V. B. Cash's voice." I told Jackson to go
nd tell the guard I had placed around tne
ouse to come to the barn. About the time
lat Jackson got opposite the house from
le, before the firing commenced, I heard
ime one say halt. After this I heard a
un fire. I recognized the voice that said
alt as Hilton's. Directly after the firing
immenced at the lot it commenced at the
ouse. I then came around to where Hilm
and Avery were. I found W. B. Cash
ring where he is now lying with two guns
ring by him. I then went through the
>t, and after passing out of the lot I met
t. D. Hendrix, Henry Jackson, and, I
link, Mr. Rhodes, together with Sam Lee.
think we left Boggan Cash lying on
is left side. Boggan Cash was not dead
'hen we left him, but was in a dying conition.
I took charge of Sam Lee. I had
ut a few guards and I went with the prisner
to a trial justice. The shooting took
lace about daylight. I left directions that
le body was not to be disturbed. I first
irried Lee and Hilton to Dr. Kolloch.
tendrix, Sellers and Johnson told me that
ash was dead before we left the place,
'his is the warrant and deputations under
'hich I acted. (Coroner's warrant and
leriff's warrant put in evidence.) I told
fie posse several times not to hurt W. B.
asH except in self-defence. Hilton was
rounded in the little finger.
E. M. Avery, sworn, says: I was one of
ie posse summoned by E. T. King to arrest
V. I?. Cash. We got to W. B. Cash's place
bout daylight. Mr. King stationed Hilton
nd myself at the gate back of the lot towards
the north, and King told us not to
urt Cash if he would give up, and only to
toot Cash in self-defence. We had not been
t our post very long before Mr. King came
nd told us that some one was in the barn,
ifter King had left a few minutes a colored
rnn came and went into the north door of
ie barn. The colored man had not been in
ie barn but a few minutes when we heard>me
one talking, and after some time I saw
/. B. Cash open the door and come out and
o off from the barn toward where we were
anding, looking back. We were standing
ehind some logs, and when W. B. Cash
ime up Hilton told Cash to halt, and I told
im to surrender. Cash never said a word,
ut shot at us twice with a shot-gun. Then
fter these two shots we fired back at him.
ash shot twice at us with a rifle, one of the
lots striking Hilton on the finger. No one
'as present at the first shooting but Hilton
nd myself. Cash was sitting down when
e fired the last two shots.
W. A. Johnson, sworn, says: I was one of

?st W. B. Cash. We got there aboutdayreak
this morning. I was stationed at the
ist side of the house with instructions not
) hurt W. B. Cash if he would surrender,
heard some one talking in the barn, and
1 about fifteen or twenty minutes after I
eard a gun fire from the back of the lot.
vrhen I heard the gun I ran around in the
irection of the shot. When I got there
tilton said, "He has shot me" and "shoot
im." I asked Hilton, "Where ishe?" and
e replied, "He is in the lot." I saw where
e was and saw him with his gun presented
t Hilton. When I jhu this I shot at Cash
nd about the same time there were several
unsfired. Kingthensaid, "Don't shoot any
lore, boys." We then went up to Cash; he
Tas breathing and not then dead. None of
s touched him. Twn guns were lying by
le side of him. King said, "Let us now
o around to the dwelling house, there was
)me shooting up there." We went around
nd saw Henry Jackson, Rhodes and Hardy
[endrix together with the prisoner, Sam
ee. King, Jackson and Rhodes went on
'ith Sam Lee to Cheraw and the rest of us
*ent back to the lot to see Cash. We found
im dead. King then ordered us to come
n.
M. L. Rhodes, sworn, says : I was one of
le posse summoned by E. T. King to arrest
V. 13. Cash. On Wednesday, the 14th King,
rrived in Cheraw at about half-past 9
'clock. I had been summoned before to
leet him, and met him about that time.
Ling first gave us our instructions as to
hat to do if we found Cash. He told us to
rst "halt" Cash and order him to throw
own his arms, and if Cash tried to shoot to
rotect ourselves. He said he would be the
laddest man in Chesterfield if he could ar?st
Cash and carry him to the court house
dthout a hair of his head being hurt. We
ot to Cash's house about 4 o'clock, a half
our before day. Hendrix and myself were
le first ones stationed, and about fifteen
;et from the window of the dwelling house,
suppose we stayed there about half an
our before there were any developments.

istened the window. I heard some one
nd thought it was W. B. Cash, but suppose
; was she hollowing to the dogs. Just here
[enry Jackson came up with orders from
Cing to close up on the barn. Then I told
ackson I thought Cash was in the house,
ackson said, "No; I heard him in the barn
>ft." We then started around the dwelling
ouse and got about twenty feet from where
re were stationed. Just at the first fire of
le gun at the lot I heard some one jump
ut of bed ; and it was a very short while
ntil Sam Lee was at the corner of the house
ith his gun levelled at us. He shot at us
nee. I saw a blaze of fire from his gun.
.fter all of us fired at Lee he ran around to
le corner of the house near the window
'here we were first stationed, and just as he
ot to the corner he threw up his gun again,
then fired at him. Then Lee ran Dack
bout middle-way of the house and stopped,
thought he was going to shoot under the
ouse and we fired. Then he ran to the
)rner where he first shot, with his gun up.
wo or three of us ordered him to drop his
un. Then he jumped back, ran about five
?et, came back to the corner with his hands
p and said he would surrender. There
as no shooting after he surrendered. We
len started up towards the barn, and when
e got nearly to the barn King told us that
lilton was shot and W. B. Cash killed,
hen Hendrix and myself walked up to
10k at Cash. We walked up to Cash,
here was a double-barrelled shot-gun lying
own by him and a rifle was in one of his
ands and cocked. One pistol was lying
ear by him and another pistol, with a
hite ivory handle, buckled around him.
.fter we had stopped there not half a minte
we started with Sam Lee for Cheraw.
Zing then said we will go up and let the
kroner know. There was one negi;o who
rent from the dwelling house to tne barn,
'his was before the shooting. I saw two
egroes running across the field.
Jamas F. McNair, sworn, says: I was
ummoned by E. T. King 0n last Wednesay,
night, the 14th, to go with the posse,
was detailed to take charge of the horses,
fever saw nor do I know anything about
tie shooting at W. B. Cash's. I heard King
vy and he instructed me, if Cash was capLired,
to go to Cheraw and telegraph the
fiicitor that Cash was arrested, and await
istructions and bring back word.
Dr. C. Kolloch, sworn, says: I saw Cash's
double-barreled shotgun examined. Both hi
barrels were empty. Saw the Winchester 01
rifle examined, ana saw some charges were Ci
missing. There were several empty shells, Ci
I can't say exactly the number, and a large fe
number of shells for the shot-gun were on rc
and about his person. v<
R. C. Watts, sworn, says: I am an attorney be
at law and brother-in-law of W. B. Cash, de- in
ceased. I heard this morning, about half- w
rit 7 o'clock, that W. B. Cash was killed, th
immediately arose and wrote to Gen. rc
Prince to notify the corner or trial justice tii
that Boggan Cash was killed. I know noth- th
ing of the particulars. Shortly after that st
time I left home and came down as quickly gi
as I could, accompanied by Dr. Clayton and sh
a negro who drove the wagon. When I on
arrived at W. B. Cash's place?it being the co
first time 1 was ever there?I inquired at of
the house on the road where the corpse was fe:
and who was with it. I was informed that se
no one Nvas with it, but they had instructions Jc
not to go about the corpse. Dr. Clayton m
and myself, accompanied by two or three th
witnesses, went to the corpse. I told them
it would not do to leave it by itself. When ?rj
I arrived the corpse was lying where the
jury saw it. W. B. Cash had his right hand
up near his ear and his left arm across his P1:
breast. His left leg crooked under his right D<
leg. He was lying on his back, his face re
looking toward the heavens and his mouth
open. I told the parties he must be straightened
out, but not moved from the direction
i he fell in. Had his hands and feet tied.
Had his mouth closed and a handkerchief :
tied around his face. Had some rails brought eand
sent and got a canvas sheet to protect a j
him from the sun. Had his eyes closed.
His body was not moved until we had per- j
mission from the coroner.
Henry Jackson, sworn, says: I was one
of the posse summoned by E. T. King to e
arrest W. B. Cash. I went with the posse i
on Wednesday night. Saw Cash only after
he was shot. Cash was nearly dead when i '
I saw him. I was stationed near the barn rn
with King. King sent me to the post of the vj
posse that were stationed in front of the
dwelling house to tell them to come to the . _
barn. Just after I arrived where the parties
on the road were stationed the firing com
menced at the barn. Just as we started >
around the dwelling house to go to the lot, *
Lee ran out of the house with his gun. We si(
ordered him to halt, and he wheeled around je
as if he were going to shoot. Lee then ran xT(
around to the corner of the house, squatted jj,
down at the corner and appeared to be ch
getting ready to shoot. Sam Lee was then *
shot at by the crowd and wounded in the
leg. He came out and said he would sur- co
render. We then took Lee and went toward ca
the barn. We met the crowd, and King
told us that Hilton was shot and Cash was Jn
killed. We then took Lee and brought him .
a prisoner to Cheraw. King told us that he
did not want us to kill Cash, and not to
shoot unless necessary. Cash had a shot- it
gun and a Winchester rifle. The Winches- ni,

shot-gun was lying on the ground near by an
him. *
H. G. Hendrix, sworn, says: I was one su
of the posse summoned by E. T. King to p:
arrest W. B. Cash. We arrived at Cash's j
place about daylight. I was stationed with ^j'
Khodes in the road near the dwelling-house 1.1
by E. T. King. After we had been station- W}
ed in the road some time, Henry Jackson gt,
came to where we were and told us that W.
B. Cash was in the barn loft, and that King
wished us to come to the barn. We started A.
to the barn. Just as we started the firing
commenced at the barn. While the firing ^
was going on and we were going to the an
barn, Sam Lee ran out of thedwelling-house, m(
and we ordered him to surrender. Lee had at)
a gun and had it in position to shoot. Lee '
did not surrender until after we had shot at jjV
him several times. I think he shot as he Qi
went around the house. Lee appeared to be of
trying to cover himself so that could shoot. ?
After Lee surrendered King came up and u?
told us that Cash was shot and Bill Hilton cu
was shot. I went to the lot with several of _
the posse and found Cash lying on his left ?
side, facing the swamp. Two guns were 521
lying by him, the shot-gun some little dis- ^
tance from him and one of his arms around
the rifle. Two pistols were about him ; one
lying near his body, the other in a case on Sii
his body. He was dead when we left him. Fc
I heard the word "halt" given at the lot F?
from where I was stationed before there ?v
was any firing. We were instructed by
King before we got to Cash's and when ' j
he stationed us not to shoot Cash without na
halting him and only in self-defence. The oft
firing over at the lot before we got there, air
Cash's left hand was lying over on the otT
ground and the other hand was lying on rej
his body. I saw a negro boy come out of of
the dwelling-house ana go to the barn and co
then come back before the firing began, wi
Lee surrendered to us in his night-clothes. th<

the posse summoned by E. T. King to arrest
W. B. Cash. We got to Cash's place about [{JJ
half an hour before day. Mr. Avery and i
myself were stationed by King between the dr
barn and the swamp, and instructed to guard soi
that place. After we had been stationed th<
about an hour W. B. Cash came out of the tn
barn toward us in the direction of the swamp.
When Cash got in about fifteen feet of me I W(
halted him. He made no reply, but fired
on me. I then fired and Cash fell. I ordered
him then to surrender. He fired again, *
and then Cash and myself kept firing until su
I some person told me not to shoot any more, gP
I "he is done." Cash had a double-barreled .1
shotgun, a Winchester rifle and two pistols, ail
The shotgun was lying close by him, the
rifle was lying partly on the ground and
on Cash. One pistol was lying near Cash 1
and the other was on him. Cash shot three to
times after he fell that I know of. I think th:
more. The third shot that Cash fired struck sai
me in the finger, going in and cutting /
through the flesh ancl dividing some of the Cj1
tendons, and shooting off the stock of my a11
gun. The ball wentthrough my coatsleeve, "s
overcoat and waterproof. King instructed H
us not to shoot any person without halting ?
him, ana only to snoot in sen-ueience. caisn
did not see me until I halted him. I did not
see any one at the barn during the shooting,
saw a black boy before the shooting go to the <
barn. I used my pistol,calibre No. 88, after sv
the gun. I shot it twice. There was shooting
oy others of the posse, but I was too
tightly engaged to see who it was.
Dr. Kolloch,sworn, says: I was summon- I('<
ed by the coroner to view the body of W. B.
Cash and make a post-mortem examination sa,
if necessary, in order to ascertain the cause sv
of his death. No dissection was made, as it exwas
unnecessary. I simply examined the oil
wounds, probing them. I found a number cf]
of bullet holes, eight or ten, some of them Sl0
made by large shot and some of them by
rifle or musket balls. There were two
wounds, either of which would have been
sufficient to have caused his death, both of ,
which seemed to have been made by large sp
balls, Winchester rifle balls or something of '(.{y
that size. One of them entered the upper thi
part of the thigh, cutting through the femo- ou
ral artery. From this he would have bled Sp
to death in less than five minutes, if he had
had no other wound. The other large "
wound was near the base of the skull, and
from the depth to which the probe entered I
would say it went entirely through the cerebellum
into the cerebrum, producing almost .
instant death. There were other small Sp
wounds, two of which may or may not have m
proved fatal. One went into the region of tre
the kidneys and the other into the lower tin
portion of the liver. Pie had other small m(
wounds and the left thigh was broken.
Joe Wilson, sworn, says: I live at E. B.
C. Cash's place. I was at W. B. Cash's })e
place the morning the posse came to arrest
him. I was in the house when the posse
came to arrest W. B. Cash. I saw no one Tr
when I was in the house. When I came
out of the house that morning I went to the
lot. I said to Mitchell when I got to the
lot: "Have you not fed yet?" He said :
"No," About this time W. B. Cash hailed
me and said: "Who is there?" I said:
"Joe." "What are you going to do?" I said ?
I was going to feed. lie said: "Don't give ""
Border but three quarts of corn." Then he
came walking down the steps and started .
off out of the barn door in a little trot, stooping
down, and just as he got to the barn I! ^
heard two guns fired. Cash fell after I heard j
the two guns fired. Cash shot three times J
after he fell. I was putting up the horses i pj
when the firing happened. Nero Campbell! ]
was the one that opened the window of the j ?
dwelling house. After the first two shots I J
I saw a man with a cap and heard him hoi- j
ler for more help, "that Cash was still |
firing."
Mitchell McKay, sworn, says : I live at r
W. B. Cash's place. I went to the lot to |j
feed the horses about day. After I got to c?
the barn Joe Wilson came in. W. B. Cash j
iiled us and said, who is that ? Cash came |

SKETCH OF BOGGAN CASH.
The following sketch of young Cash's caer
at this time will be of some interest:
Boggan Cash was at the time of his takg
off about 28 years of age, was six feet
ght inches high, weighed about 240 pounds
oirdupois ; he was a fleshy man, rather
an muscular, with light blue eyes and
.rk hair. He had a beardless face, full,
und, oval-shaped, with a florid complexn.
He was rather awkward in his manis
and movements, not prepossessing in
s ways. He had a rather boyish face, and
is rather amiable and ^ood-humored in
3k than otherwise, having an open and
ink expression. In his business dealings
ith anybody there was nothing crooked,
iderhand or tricky. By his large, off,nd
generosity he made a good many
ends. With those that had relations
ith him on business or socially, he made
easant impressions. He was a man of
lture, having had the advantages of elas;al
training. He fought a duel with Milr
Williams, of Camden, in 1878, over the
i)rth Carolina line, in Anson county; the
stance was ten paces ; two shots were exanged;
nobody was hurt. In the spring
1879 he fought a duel with Cantey, of
nnden, at Dubose'sBridge, in Darlington
unty ; this likewise was attended with no
sualty. His difficulty with old man Hern,
of Fairfield, during the political trials
Columbia is too well known to repeat
re. Last year the big negro marshal,
ilfie, tried to arrest him for cutting up
ines while on a drunk at Society Hill,
e chased him out of town, snapping his
siolathim. It is said he instigated part
the letters that passed between Col. Cash
rl Shannon t.hat, resulted in the fatal duel.
short time after his father made his unccessful
run for a seat in Congress from the
fth District, Boggan was in Lancaster one
ght when two pistol shots were fired in
s window, evidently with the intention of
lling him. If anything, by profession he
is a farmer. He was very fond of blooded
x:k, of which he had a great many ; his
vorite amusements were horse racing and
rget practice ; his besetting weakness was
aaness of whisky, and his difficulties
jre precipitated when under that evil inicnce.
It is said his career of recklessness
ci. outlawry commenced from disappointed
in love?he having been desperelyinlove
with a young lady that reilsed
his attentions. There was a devoted
tachment between father and son. The
3 man, who is now tottering on the brink
the grave between dissipation and physi1
infirmity, will rapidly sink under this
avy blow, even if his own career is not
t short by some bloody tragedy.
