la tho shadows of the night Gar
retr.s daughter successfully eluded
her father and wan arrested by
Sheriff Muldrow. She wan brought
to Jiinhopvlllc by 10. N. Austin, tho
chief of police aiut placed in jail.
At tho break of day tho search
for the murderer wan resumed. Tho
blood hounds were placed on theo
trail, and unswervingly remaiued on
t he. scent for ?lx or eight tulles un
til It Ih lurking place was located.
Garrett vsas? found crouching behind
a trc?' in the heart of the swamp,
evident!} thinking that he was con
ti'Mli'd and hU puiMteis would pat>;<
hy hitn, lie was taken by surprise
and made 110 rottlKtanco, although b< -
lug armed and having ummunUlo.ii.,
A p<?m*u of about ten men, headed
by Sheriff Muldrow, efeoted the cap ?
t ure.
The murderer was immediately
placiMl in an automlblle and taken 1
to tho jllshopvlllo Jail.
When communicated with Sherll'
Muldrow Haiti that there wan much
talk lu tho fory part of tho morning
about lynching Garret but thin later
died out and tho citizens of Hishop
vllle and vicinity are disposed to let
the law deal with the murderer.
Guard ltobbins front tho ututo peni
tontiajy returned from lilshopvtlle
about 1 o'clock Monday aftornoon
with his blood-hounds and described
the capture fo Garrett to tho Colli m*
bla police. Mr. Robbing knew Gar
rett well, the ex-convlct having been
an inmate of the state penitentiary
hero and Garret recognized ItobblnH
as boou aH the latter poked his mag
azine gun through -the bushes and
ordered him to throw up hlH hands.
Bobbins ?poko to tho murderer In
alow and deliberate toneH, unking
him if he wanted to die the death
of a dog or go to jail peacably. Oth
er members of the ppsBo were arriv
ing. Garrett made a motion as to
grab for IiIh gun, but Rohblns warn
ed him and the murderer heard tho
significant clicking of gun hanxmera.
"Well. 1 reckon I'll go 'long with
out any fuss/1 remarked Garret,
who submitted to the placing of
haridcuffa upon his wrists.
Friends of tho murdered men clos
ed around the little circle in which
a wierd drama of but a few words'
that meant life or death | botween
men had been enacted and there
were evil mutterlngs. Robbins ad
dressed tho man-hunters and declar
ed that ho had been kind euough
to bring his dogn and trail tho mur
derer to hlH hiding place and for
thiH reason ho wanted the privilege
of taking his captive to Jail. He
requested every man to discard tho
cartridges from his gun and they
did so reluctantly.
Galrrett was not without ammuni
tion and a total of 27 shells found
their way Into. Guard Robblns' pock
ets. The girl was not taken along,
with her father when the capture
was made shortly after sunrise, but
found later and was locked up, She
wa? later released.- -"Monday's Co
