F is evident that these deluded negroes Kid re incited to these hellish deeds of add< d by the garrison and carpet-baggers feel n stationed at Newberry, and it is sysi isible that a man of our own tribe was epa ind the scenes. At any rate these ben roes were armed with government nial s to slay without mercy. Some of B Cureton slayers were arrested and ea through a farcial trial, but of oourse, my re not convicted.
