Took place about 4 miles south of McDade on the McDade and Bastrop road. DAVIS was about 20 years of age, son of Mr. B. F. DAVIS who has, under contract the bulding of [four?] bridges in BC. [Next section in tatters -- possibly DAVIS was in possession of a pistol and a gun that he alledgedly swindled someone out of?] NASH obtained from Esq. W. H. COULSON a writ of sequestration to get possession of the gun and pistol. This writ was placed in the hands of Dave CARTWRIGHT, who had been summoned by Constable BISHOP to execute it, he summoning John NASH, son of Mr. Oscar NASH, to assist him. They overtook DAVIS on the road, who refused to surrender, and fired on the posse. NASH and CARTWRIGHT fired back killing DAVIS. The deceased's father took his son's body to Corsicana for interment. Inquest held at the residence of James TOWNSEND of BC before W. COULSON, Sr. and the following empanneled as jury: W. M. [W. J.?} SCARBOROUGH, W. N. SCRUGGS, James TOWNSEND, E. K. SMITH, W. PARKS, and J. W. [J. M.?] KEEL. Witnesses testifying: Wm. PARIS,[L. F.?] FIELDS, Aleck WHITE, J. H. TANNER, W. R. KELTON, Thomas BISHOP - constable of the Precinct who said in part "The writ of sequestration was sued out by Horace NASH. Horace is the uncle of John NASH, the defendant. I don't know what right Horace NASH claimed to the gun. He said it was on account of some money he had loaned the deceased on the gun." [The statements of each witness are published.] CARTWRIGHT and NASH, who came in and surrendered during the invetigation, under a $1,000 bond each, were released from custody. [More.]
