"Devil Anse" Hatfield, Feudist, is Laid
To Rest.
Logan. W. Ya., Jan. 9.?Cap . An
derson (Devil Anse) Hatfield, one time!
Confederate army officer and for \
many years thereafter one of the most |
famous and picturesque feudists in,
the mountains of West Virginia, who
died Friday, was today buried beside
his two sons, Troy and Elias, in the]
family plot three hundred feet beneath
the mountain l-ange which sheds j

one side and the Guyandotte on the!
other. The obsequies were attended i
by eleven survivors, children almost
all of them, forty grandchildren sev-;
eral great-grandchildren and aboutj
seventy-five descendants.
The funeral was characterized
throughout by a series of dramatic j
occurrences. Before the march to the j
cemetary began, the hands of two of j
the dead man's sons, long estranged I
brothers, were clasped over the coffin. J
These were "Cap" Hatfield, the father's
namesake and feud lieutenant,
and E. C. Hatfield, of Charleston. The
reconcilation was attended by a gen-'
eral demonstation of approval rnd
sympathy among those at the funeral. J
As the procession moved, the res- j
toration of good will between the'
brothers formed the chief subject of
discussion, and at the grave before
the body was lowered, "Cap" Hatfield
addressed "Uncle Dick" Garrett,,
an old preacher and friend of the fam- J
ily, and told him that he hau "made;
his peace with God and was ready to

would say the word.
"I will baptize you boy," responded
the old clergyman, "in tl.e very j
hole where I baptized your pappy." i
To this "Cap" Hatfield dramatically
raised his hands above his head in the
attitude of solemnity vowing and stated
that he had done with fighting,
that in his heart there no ' longer
rankled malice and that if any man
sought his life blood he would not resist.
There was no funeral sermon by
"Uncle Dike" but the Rev. Green McNeilly,
a companion preacher, and
who was the elder man was familiarly
referred to as "my son in the gospel"
spoke briefly, not on the life of "Devil
Anse" but on "the lesson of death."
Anderson Hatfield was born on Mate
Creek, Logan County, eighty-one
years ago last September. He served
in theConfederate army as a member
and later as captain of Company A.,
Forty-fifth Infantry L'omedcrate army.
After the war he was leader of
the Hatreld clan in the world famous

Hatfield-McCoy feud, which continu- '
ed fifteen years and in which thirtyfive
men and one woman died.
For years after the form r feud
leader had taken up his residence on
the Matewan crest and settled in 1
peaceful existence the Kentucky, authorities
sought him. There was :i ,
price on his head, but one governor
of West Virginia after another refused
to honor requisitions for him I
and finally the effort was abandoned, j
Joe Hatfield, one. of his sons, said to j

last of the state executives to refuse
to surrender him to Kentucky.

Cotton Buyers: *
Why take the risk of lower markets m
when you buy cotton? Hedge your H
purchases with us.. Make a leg'timate w
merchant's profit, avoid losses ar.^
keep your credit good at the bank. a
When you buy cotton, sell short an \
equivalent amount, then if the market V
goes down, you make on your short ?
sales what you lose on your spot pur- '
chases. If the market goes up. you i
make on your spot purchases what
you lose on your short sales so that
in either case you have a buyers' profit
without risk to yourself.
We can handle your hedge business
in lots of ten bales.
