CARROLL RECORD

DIED at her mothers residence, near Floyd, TILLY DAVIS, youngest 
daughter of MARY T. and the late JAMES Y. CALDWELL, aged 5 years.

DOUGHERTY, an old and respected citizen of the place and for many
years a practicing member of the Carroll Bar.

MARRIED on Thrusday 1 Nov. by the REV. WILLIAM KELLER, REV. THOMAS
J. SAGE to MRS. SUSAN SANDERS, all of Carroll Parish.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
16 April 1867
We learn that a desperado by the name of LUSK, at Floyd, wantonly
shot and killed a freedman of M.C.T. MOTLEY. He was promptly arrested
by SHERIFF COLLIN and DEPTY SHERIFF HENDRICK. Our jail is insecure,
and no prospect of court being held, it was deemed advisaable to 
carry him at once to New Orleans to lay the matter before the 
militaary authorities.  The negro murdered was an excellent black-
smith and wasw of an amiable and inoffencive charater and is a serious 
loss to MR. MOTLEY and the whole community.  We commend the prompt 
action of our sheriff in this matter.

W.R.C. and JULIA J. LYONS.
