Gen. CASH CLAY has written a book of the "Vendetta" and sold the manuscript to the new York Herald for $100 ROBT. L. PRATHER, a married man, is under arrest at Flemingsburg charged with abducting sixteen year old ANNA-BELL BROWN. At Russellville, ROBERT EVANS, aged seventeen, stabbed to death his schoolmate, GEORGE DUNCAN about the same age, during a boyish quarrel, while returning home from school. Friday night fifty or more negroes, who live at Glendale, Hardin County, got into a fight, with the result that BOB KLINLESMITH stabbed CHARLES SMITH to death. During the fight CHARLES SMITH"S mother ran in to help her son, and it is said someone cut her in fifteen different places. MURDERER J.BUSHMAN, the murderer of his mother-in-law, Mrs. STEWART, was arrested by LOUIS STUBER, his brother-in-law , in a cornfield about seventy-five yards from the house where the deed was done. He was brought to town and carried before "Squire Collins" and upon waving trial was committed to jail to await the next term of circuit Court. BUSHMAN said yesterday that he was coming to town to surrender when arrested., and that the night before he had gone sixty miles from Paris, crossing into Kentucky. He was considraby exhausted and suffered from the effects of exposure since he became a fugitive. Sheriff HAYNES and possee and City Marshall Mills were out searching for him when he was arrested by STUBER. It is not known wheather STUBER will claim the $100 reward offered for BUSHMAN"S arrest. It was feared that BUSHMAN would resist arrest. It is also believed that he ventured back to the scene of his crime with the intention of killing his wife, who had been very anxious to see him arrested and punished. Mrs. MARY ANN STEWART, keeper of the house of ill fame near paris, was shot by her son-in-law , BUSHMAN, on Christmas eve, from the effects of which she died Sunday evening. BUSH, as he is generally known, was trying to extort money from his wife and her mother and became engaged in a fight with his wife, when the old woman interferred. Whereupon he drew his pistol and opened fire on both, the bullets aimed at his wife going wild, but one struck Mrs. STEWART on the fourth rib on the right side, glancing around and passing out the back. It is said that the woman was armed, but it is not known to be a fact. Immediately after the shootong, BUSH came to town and bought a quantity of morphine and made his escape. Since then he has been in the vicinity by several negroes and had been chased day and night by Sheriff HAYNES and posse and Marshal MILLS, but had managed to elude the officers. He is about 40 years of age, with his home being at Bowling Green, but came originally from Indiana. He married a daughter of the murdered woman in 1892. The murdered woman was buried in the city cemetery. She was born of respectable parentage in this county and led a virtuous life until the war, her husband being a respectable man and a confederate soldier. For many years she kept the house of ill-fame near town, where she met her violent death. The name of STEWART was neither her maiden name nor that of her husband but an assumed one. There is a strong feeling against BUSHMAN here. -Bowling Green Times Submitted By Laura frost wright August 9, 2000 End of ky-footsteps-digest V00 #235 ********************************************************************** USGENWEB ARCHIVES NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by any other organization or persons.
