Mfmber? of the Two Families Nov*
Shake Hands When They .Meet
I he famous H atheld-MeCoy feud is
ended. A couple of years ago one o?
the Hatfields aiul one of the McCoys
who some years h.-foie would have
shot each other at sight, worked to
gether amicably enough in the sarin
saw mill ut Bennettsville.
A Hatfield and a McCoy, members J
noted and opposing feud families |
West \ njfinia, have shaken hands
in friendship, walked about a mountain
town arm in arm chatting in a
most amicable manner, and then to
top it all, had their photographs taken
together. Observers believe that
many a Hatfield and McCoy of the
days of some 40 years a^o must have
turned over in their graves,
j The sensation came recently when!
Tennis Hatfield, sheriff of Logan
county, \N . \ a., crossed the l ug river
to 1 ikeville, Ky. In the neighborhood
of this town the earlier Hatfields and
Met oys had fought to death for .supremacy.
Hatfield was a guest of
Joseph Stanley in Tikeville and wa>
sitting on the hitter's front porch
when he spied "Uncle Jim McCoy
walking down the street. In a moment
the two representatives of the
old fighting families were shaking
hands. Pikeville citizens could not
helievq their own eyes, but slowly it
dawned upon them that the long feud
was at an end.
The long family battle was a foolish
thing in the beginning. A sow
and pigs turned loose in the woods
were taken up by Hatfield. One of
the McCoys looked over into Hatfield's
pig pin a few days later and
saw the animals. He claimed them,
ami then the feud began. Through
the years of fighting that resulted the
Hatfields seem to have inflicted the
larger number of casualties. More1
McCoys than Hatfields were killed,
but the McCoys were not driven out
of their mountains. They stayed on
and fought and were killed and,'
wouncled.
I he worst tragedy perhaps was the
killing of three young McCoys by a ;
gang of 23 men who were said to bo i1
members of the Hatfipld clan. This!
was in 1882. One of the Hatfield fac-11
tion had been fatally wounded, so
three McCoy youngsters were captur- j
ed, held prisoners in a lonely cabirj
and finally executed. Th - de.-d re-j
opened the feud, with greater furyj
than, ever and many others died.
