The Cambria Freeman. (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938 November 14, 1867
In addition to the $50 dollar reward offered by the father of the murdered boy, we
are glad to notice that Sheriff Myers has offered a reward of $200 for the
apprehension of the atrocious murderer, Cyrus Thompson, who shot and killed the son
of Mr. Daniel McDonald, in Cambria borough, on the evening of the 31st October.
Thompson is described as a man apparently about 36 years of age, is about 5 feet 10
inches high, weighs about 150 pounds, has dark eyes, black hair and dark complexion,
wears a mustache and goatee, is addicted to drink, and had on when he left a
stiff-rimmed low crowned hat and a soldier's long blouse. We sincerely hope that the
villain may be captured. Mr. McDonald and his estimable family have our heartfelt
sympathy in the great affliction which has befallen them.
