THE HILL AND EVANS FEUD.
open field fight, or any other kind of a fight they desired, as soon as he could get ready. The boys, including Sam, were at May's house. When the guns arrived, May mustered his little company and marched out to where the enemy dared them. When the Hills saw the advancing foe, they retreated to a tobacco house at the extremity of the field. As the hindmost were going into the house, the boys got to the fence, whence the party had retreated, and fired upon them. In reply to this fire, some of them ran out and hallooed -
" D-n it, its too far to begin to shoot ; - come over and give us an open field fight !"
The boys jumped over the fence and ran toward the house. This so frightened the Hills that they broke an opening through the back side of the house, and ran over to Fred Hill's house, leaving some of their guns. The boys gave them a hot chase and a shower of balls, though the distance was too great to do much execution.
Fred Hill's house was formed into a kind of fort, nailed up closely all round, save some little port holes through which to shoot. When the Hills got into it, they barred the door firmly, fearing the enemy would attempt to break in upon them. The boys approached pretty near the house, but by this time it was too dark for them to see to shoot. They hallooed to the Hills ----
" You have Evans Bedster in there, and we want him - we intend to have him! The good citizens of Garrard have a pro- cess against him, and we are going to execute it. If you don't deliver him up, we will be so polite as to come in after him ! "
A noise was then heard in the back part of the house as if they were breaking open a window and jumping out. The boys supposed they would aim to get to Clouse's house, and ran that way to intercept them. But unfortunately, or rather for- tunately, the Hills happened to run the other way. They ran down to the river, waded across to an island, and concealed themselves under some trash or driftwood. The boys went to Clouse's and inquired for the Hills, but they had not been there. They then knew that they must be concealed somewhere under the cliff of the river. Hence, they kept a close watch about that place until noon on Wednesday, at which time a heavy rain fell and thoroughly wet them all, and spoiled their ammunition.

But the Hills laid as close as mice, and did not show them- selves during the whole time, nor did they have a morsel of food from Sunday night till noon on Wednesday. When the boys left, the river rose rapidly on account of the heavy rain, and threatened to overflow the island. Thus the proud Kentucky sent her angry tides and disdainfully drove them from her do- mains. They waded out, went up the river to the mouth of Paintlick creek, up that creek to the mouth of Back creek, up that to the mouth of Longbranch, and up that till they came to the house of one of their relatives, and there stopped late in the night to get something to eat. You may guess they were a pretty hungry set of fellows, having fasted three days and nights, and endured the severest exposure. After they had eaten to their fill and rested, they set out for Lancaster and arrived there about daybreak.
On Monday morning, while both parties were down on the river, Mrs. Fred Hill went to Lancaster and swore out a war- rant against the Evanses. She swore that they had shot her nose off - shot into the house, into the skillet while she was parching coffee and broke it, knocked the coffee pot over, and done divers other misdemeanors. She went before the judge with her nose tied up in a bundle of rags, with her cyes brimful of tears, and swore that what she said was true.
In virtue of the warrant, the sheriff went down to Dr. Evans's to get the boys. The Doctor told him that he had no idea where the boys were; that they went to church on Sun- day aud had not been seen since, but that he expected them home every day ; and when they returned they would be at his disposal, or that they would meet him on any day he might choose. On the day appointed, the boys went to town to have their trial, but not a Hill made his appearance, consequently nothing was done. This was a fine joke on the judge ; and the people laughed at him heartily - issuing a warrant for a lost nose! To secure future protection, the judge threatened to prosecute them if they troubled him with any more of their false swearing. In fact, her nose had nothing the matter with it, but she bundled it up to make an impression ; nor had any one shot into the house. Her conscience, if not her nose, was doubtless a fit subject for a government pension.

THE HILL AND EVANS FEUD.
... Now, as Dr. Evans and his party, numbering nine, were at Lancaster, and as the Hills, more than twenty strong, were collected at Fred Hill's house, every person thought they would have a desperate battle before they could get home. The Hills did not make use of this fine opportunity of meeting an uncqual foc, but kept pretty close in their barracks. The Doctor kept a spy out to watch their moves till Saturday. The fact that they kept such close quarters induced the boys to believe that they were completely whipped-hence, on Sunday they scattered out to the different churches, thinking there would be no danger from the cowed enemy.
But the Doctor knew the wiles of the party better than to receive such an opinion. Ile believed they were waiting quietly only till the boys commenced to cut a certain piece of oats. The catfield was in the form of a parallelogram, and bonnded on three sides by a dense thicket and land belonging to Bill Hill. It was also within a few hundred yards of Hill's house, which rendered it very dangerous for the boys to work there. One morning, some of the boys went to cutting the oats, while the others, thinking there would be no danger, scattered out to different parts of the country. The Doctor stationed himself on one corner of the field where he could plainly see Hill's house and half a mile up and down the creek, and placed a spy at the other corner. The Doctor had not been at his post long before he saw seven or eight men at Hill's. They were more of the Washington troops, brought up by Bill Hill and Pat Williamson. In a short time, about a dozen of the regulars were seen marching up with their rifles, with Dr. Iliil at their head. When they discovered Dr. Evans on guard, Dr. Hill pulled off his hat and waved it in the air, then leveled his gun as if in the act of shooting. They went on to the house and rested themselves under the shade trees. About this time the Doctor heard a loud noise and hallooing on the other side of his house. He turned and saw several men running down the hill from the barn toward the house, and hallooing - run ! run ! Ile did not understand the meaning of this, for they were strangers to him, but supposed them to be some of the raw recruits of the opposite party coming down to attack the house. The Doctor ran toward the house as fast as he could but they

met him and told him that the Hills were preparing to attack the boys in the oatfield. They then ran on to give the boys the information. And the Doctor returned to his post. These men ran two or three miles in breathless haste, fearing the IIills would attack the boys unawares.
After the Hills rested a little time, they marched up the creek to a cornfield beyond the view of Dr. Evans. They had not been out of sight long before the report of a gun was heard, but it was some of the boys shooting as a signal for some of the others to shoot, so that they might know each other's locality, and thus get together. Some of the boys ran down to the creek and got into the old mill, expecting the Hills would pass 'near by it. But the miller made them go away, for he would have been in great danger had the two parties met there. They went back toward the oatfield into the thicket and discovered the Hills before they got into the cornfield - then the firing commenced. Two rounds were fired in quick succession by each of the parties. The Hills retreated across the creek and concealed themselves behind a clump of trees and the fence, still keeping up a brisk fire. But the fierce balls that came thick and fast from the opposite party made them retreat from behind their covert and run into Bill Hill's house. Some of them ran into the smoke-house, knocked out the chinking, and fired through the apertures between the logs. As soon as the Hills ran into the house the boys ceased firing, and hallooed to the women and children to come out and go away, for they intended to take the house by storm. The women cleared out like a flock of timid sheep, and went over to Mr. Harding's. The boys then went down closer to the creek and told the Hills to -" Come out and make one decisive battle. If you refuse, we will take the house by storm and compel you to fight. Come out and give us a fair fight, we will put our twelve men against your whole crew. If you wont. fight, we'll make you do it anyhow !" This challenge was answered only by a hot fire from the house. Dr. Evans was still watching at his post, but not hearing the boys fire, became uneasy with the fear that some, of them were wounded, and started down to where they were. Hle met one of his sons who informed him that no one was hurt; he therefore returned.
104
THE HILL AND EVANS FEUD.
1
One of the Hills went out into the yard to hang up a coat on a stick to see if the boys would shoot at it. About the time he succeeded in fastening it to the pole, a gun fired fron the enemy's ranks and stretched him on the ground. He laid a moment like a dead man, then crawled slowly into the house. About twelve o'clock the boys ceased firing entirely, but the fire from the house continued with unabated fury.
The Doctor then left his post to the care of two little children, and went to the house to get his dinner. He found about half of his party there - some eating, others moulding bullets, making cartridges and fixing their cartridge boxes, as if they intended to have a general campaign. The Doctor asked where the other boys were. In reply, he was told that they were lying out in the end of the oatfield asleep, waiting for their dinners to be brought to them. When the boys in the field got their basket dinner, they very hospitably asked the Hills over to dine with them. But instead of a note accepting the invitation, they received a shower of harmless balls. After dinner the boys and the Doctor held a council of war. At the conclusion of the consultation, the Doctor told them -" You must not shoot at them any more at this distance, it is only wasting ammunition. . We must keep them in the house till night, if possible, and then we'll smoke'em out. We must divide our company, and one half get on the brow of the hill beyond the house ; and while the movement is making, the party on this side must keep a big gun and fire at the house to make them keep close that they may not perceive our design. Then if they come out either way we will get them, and give them a miniature Waterloo." According to the Doctor's advice, while those that were to station themselves. on the opposite hill were going around the house, the remaining party fired the Mississippi riffe-into the house to make the Hills keep dark, so that they would not perceive the move. The ball fired into the house had more than the desired effect, for it tore through the wall, went entirely through the house, making the splinters and plaster fly, which dreadfully frightened the Hills. They knew the report of the gun, and the desperate strength with which she threw her balls ; and, to use their phraseology, knew that it would be death to stand before the savage mouth
105
VARIOUS SKIRMISHES.
of old Mississippi. The second ball did even more execution than the first, and frightened them so much that they ran from the house to seek protection in the distance. Thus, the Doctor's plans were frustated. He wished to keep them there till night, but the terrible force with which the ounce balls shattered the walls, placed them in as much danger from the splinters as they would have been in an open field before the dreaded fire of the enemy. They ran out of the house and tried to conceal themselves in the green corn, but the balls of the foe could too easily search them under that fragile covering. They then ran back behind the house and got over the fence in double-quick time, each fellow taking care of his own head. As they were going up the hill, beyond gunshot, the boys discovered them and gave a close chase. The Hills ran over the hill and got out of sight before the boys could get up there.
The boys then returned toward home and met the Doctor .. He told them that they could yet intercept the Hills. for they would certainly go one of two ways - either cross Davis's creek toward Mrs. Jenkins's, or down the creek to Mayfield's. He advised thein to run across the country and secrete themselves on the way to Mrs. Jenkins's. They did so, and hid behind a log a few rods from the road. Before they started, they ordered two of the little boys to keep up a pretty constant fire to make the Hills believe they were not in pursuit. They also sent Thomas and James to a convenient point on the other road, with instructions to fire their guns if the Hills passed that way. They had not been seated in this ambush long before the Hill party came marching down the road, about two hundred yards distant. But, at this instant, the boys heard the reports of two guns, in quick succession, which they believed to be signals from Thomas and James, to indicate that the Hills were passing that way, hence, they sprang from their seats, ran in the direc- tion of the reports, thus letting the Hills pass unmolested. This was a most thrilling incident. A gentleman on the adjacent hill side saw the boys concealed and the Hills advancing ; he had pictured in his mind the horrors of the almost inevitable bloodshed ; he heard the reports and saw the boys run away, which transported him with joy equal to his intense anxiety. Had the boys remained there only a few minutes longer, the
106
THE HILL AND EVANS FEUD.
entire Hill party would have been slain, for the boys were num- bered off so that each one would shoot at the man whose num- ber corresponded with his own ; and, as the Hills were the more numerous, the second round would be fired before they could get ready to shoot, and those that remained then would fall be- fore the small arms. The guns were not fired as signals by Thomas and James, but by the little boys in the field for the deception of the Hills.
While the boys were firing at the house, a young man was observed to get on his horse and slip slyly up the hill. When he got beyond the reach of the guns, he industriously applied the whip to his horse and got away as quick as possible. He proved to be a young man by the name of Comely, who had been drawn into the party, not by a love of battle, but by the love of whisky and women. He was pleased to stay with them as long as he could get plenty to drink, but when the fighting came up, he would rather be excused. He went in post haste to Lancaster and informed Mrs. Dr. Hill of the progressing battle. This news threw her into a wonderful phrensy ; -- she snorted around a considerable time trying to get some one to accompany her to the battle ground. But, finding none so gal- lant as to become her escort, she set out alone and unprotected upon the uncertain mission. All nature was wrapt in the sable mantle of night. As she rode along in the invisible gloom. ter- rible thoughts and hobgoblins of the dreaded enemy preved upon her mind and chilled her frame with terror. The roadside was studded with hideous fiends, whose hellish eyes glared in the darkness, and from whose throats issued blue flames and dense sulphuric fumes, while their bloody teeth were gnashing with impatience for the human victim. She shuddered' and shrieked at the boundings and gnashings of these demons, but the horse did not heed her agonies, and pursued. with steady pace, the well known road. The responsive shrieks of the doleful night hawk she magnified to the war cry of the phan- toms. as they engaged, in a hotly contested battle, to decide who should be proprietor of her body. At first, urged on by a feeling of humanity. to dress the wounds of the living, and console the last moments of the dying, she was now at the mercy of her own imagination and the will of her faithful horse. She dwelt
--

in the hell of her own mind. When the horse arrived at Hill's, he stopped at the accustomed block. She knew not where she was; she was lost in her own imagination. The reality of her position gradually displaced the bewilderment and she gained confidence to dismount. She slowly and cautiously approached the wide-spread door, but the cheerful prattle of innocent babes, as they gamboled before the fire, was hushed - the suppressed whisper of the more sagacious women was no more to be heard, and the clash of arms had long since died away - all was dark and dreary desolation. She stood a statue in the door ; her heart ceased to beat ; the dead silence seemed to tell a direful tale ; the same fiery demons of her imagination clung to the walls, the ceiling. and stood thick in the impenetrable darkness, and hissed like serpents to augment her fright. She fled to her horse and retraced her ghost-infested journey. A. kind negro offered a protecting hand and conducted her back home. When she arrived, she found the heroes of the late defeat standing at her gate.

AT Dr. Hill and Joe Murphy's trial for killing May, and before the acquittal had been pronounced, Gabriel J. Saulter, who was standing out in the square, sent for Dr. Evans. The Doctor went and mounted a block, with a crowd of people encircling him.
". Is there no way to put an end to this difficulty ? " inquired Saulter.
" Yes," responded the Doctor ; "if you would only resolve yourselt into a committee of ways and means, you would soon

find abundant ways. Your party can stop it whenever they wish ; all they have to do is to let me and mine alone. They started it, and must end it. At the time of the Lancaster fight, did you not say that you wished to see the Hills to make them quit fighting ?"
" I did say as much."
" Have they not always been your tools, your father's tools, and old John Hill's tools, with which you accomplished your dirty jobs ? "
"I will not say that they have been : - but they all love me !""
" You could have made them quit fighting any time ; you could have prevented the Lancaster fight, but did not want to. You were not in earnest when you said you wished the fight to cease."
" I am in earnest, now ; I want, really, the fighting to end."
" If that is your desire. then say and do nothing more about it, and the whole affair is at an end. You have said everything you could to injure me and my family ; but, henceforth, treat me as a gentleman, and I will do the same by you and party."
" But it is reported about town that you intend to kill Dr. Hill and Joe Murphy, if they are cleared by the court."
" When, in the name of high heaven, will you and your bab- bling party quit lying ? You know as well as I do that there is not the shadow of truth in this. You know I never make an attack. But your party will spread any kind of a report that suits your purpose."
" Well, never mind that - let us come to some conclusion. To show you that I am in earnest, I will sign that petition to the Governor to remit Sam's fine, and will take it to Dr. Hill and get him also to sign it."
· Saulter was in earnest this time, and it is believed that he did everything in his power to end the Feud. The next morning after the conversation, Hamilton Duggins, one of Dr. Hill's particular friends, went to see Dr. Evans. 1
" Dr. Hill sent me over here," said Duggins, "to inform you that he wants to quit fighting. He only wants you to say that you will quit, for he believes you will do what you say. He will dispose of his weapons in any way you may desire."
. " You may tell Dr. Hill," replied Dr. Evans, " if that is his
109
THE HILL AND EVANS FEUD.
desire, he has nothing more to do than to quit. If he will now declare peace, and observe the stipulations, he and party shall never be disturbed by me and mine. So far as his arms are concerned, those that he stole at the Scott's fork tragedy, must be returned to their owners. The big shot-gun belongs to me, the little rifle to James Lane, who has had no hand in the fight, and the pistol and bowie-knife to the widow Chrismon. Those that he borrowed from his neighbors must be returned; for, if he is like me, he has enough of his own to quit fighting with. Those that he has bought and paid for, he is at liberty to do with as he pleases - he can either sell them, wear them, or break them."
A few days after this, Dr. Hill wrote a long letter to Dr. Evans, entrusting the delivery of the same to George Smith and Gabriel Saulter. These latter gentlemen were on the way to execute their mission one morning, but met the Doctor in the road, not far from Lancaster, and made known their business. The letter made all the acknowledgments and admissions that could be desired, save with respect to the disposal of the guns. But it also contained information that Smith and Saulter were the authorized agents of the Hill party, and they had power to modify any of the propositions. They agreed that the guns should be returned or paid for, and that Joe Murphy and John Brown should leave the county immediately. But Murphy was to have the liberty of returning, in the following spring, to attend his trial for killing a negro woman.
The majority of the Hill party immediately left the county, and the others were making preparation to follow the example. But Murphy and Brown soon came back, settled on Paintlick creek, and swore they intended to go where they pleased. In direct violation of the treaty, they drew a boundary line between themselves and the opposite party, and swore that the penalty would be death for any of them to cross the line. They not only made threats, but put them into execution - for they did actually waylay the Doctor, as he went to Teetersville to attend to some business. It is supposed that they did this not on their own account or desire, but because ordered to do so by Dr. Hill. These daring acts emboldened them to rasher decds, and induced them to take ambuscade even in their old battle ground, on Sugar creek. These facts will serve to show how

THE CONCLUSION.
faithfully Dr. Hill observed the treaty, though ne was all the time pretending to be preparing to move to California.
On one bright morning, when the sun shone gladly forth, and the azure tints of the sky seemed to grow deeper with joy at the happy peace that had been concluded, Joe Murphy saun- tered about his log cabin, with an air that bespoke the contem- plation of some dire event. He was the personification of discontent. The sublimity of the high limestone hills, that ·embowered his little hut, aided by the unparalleled serenity of the weather, seemed not to have a cheering influence upon his heart. He was feverishly gloomy and morose, and devoured his rude breakfast with an absence of mind and heavy drawn sighs. After hastily swallowing the morning repast, he told his wife that he intended to go away and never return. His wife entreated and implored him not to be guilty of so rash and woful a deed. But his reckless heart was dead to all the influ- ·ences of love and the tender endearments of home; her wail- ings were answered only by the echo of the surrounding hills and extended forest ; he tore himself away, never again to see her whom he had loved.
He went immediately to Lancaster in this frenzied mood and joined Dr. Hill. They wildly indulged the maddening fires of intoxicating liquors. Being frantic with the fire that stimulated their giddy brains, they buckled on their oft-worn armor, and sallied forth into the town to seek whom they could devour. As chance would have it, Dr. Evans and some of his friends hap- pened to be in town that day, but were soon informed of the approach of the enemy. The Doctor believed the entire Hill party to be concealed in town, from the actions of Joe Murphy, who attempted, several times, to get a shot at the prime object of the war. This frightened the Doctor, and to prevent any more bloodshed, he thought it advisable to leave for home.
After the Doctor left, Joe Murphy laid away his weapons and seated himself quietly before the tavern fire. Not many hours had rolled into the forgetful past, when Jack and Bill May, two of the Evans' party, on pretence to get a drink of liquor, went over to the tavern. When Jack May entered the room and saw Murphy sitting before the fire, he drew a revol- ver, put it against the temple of Murphy's head, and shot two balls through his brain. IIe fell dead upon the floor !

THE HILL AND EVANS FEUD.
This serbanly was the blackest deed committed by the Evans party. They had hitherto professed too much nobleness of heart to waylay the enemy or sneak up behind them unawares ; but now we see their policy violated, at the conclusion of the con- test, and upon an unarmed and defenceless man. Thus we see them do that which they had preached against for years. Prior to this time, they conducted themselves admirably, but this last act was the most cruel of all. Who can divine the hypocritical workings of the human heart! I do not say that this is an immediate stain upon Dr. Evans's family, for, .perhaps, the Doctor would not have countenanced the deed before commit- ted. Nor do I say that they were not justifiable in the act; for the Hills had already broken the treaty in returning and attempting to shoot Dr. Evans ; and when an obligation is broken by one of the bound parties, it cannot bind the other. But, having been such advocates of open and fair work, we should have hoped that they would not be guilty of this low trick. Though the Mays went to the tavern, under pretext of getting a drink of liquor, some people are of opinion that the whole affair was preconcerted and advised by Dr. Evans. We have no proof of this, but every one is at liberty to enjoy his own opinion. It is enough to make us doubt that the Evanses were actuated to their honorable course of conduct by principles of honor, and make us believe that they aimed only at public applause. But the misdeed of one individual should not rest upon the entire party, much less upon Dr. Evans's family, for one might do what the whole would condemn.
When Murphy fell, May ran across the square, got his horse and left immediately. When the news reached Dr. Hill, who was on the opposite side of town, he exclaimed with great excitement -----
" Who will now say that I had better not leave this county ? Every breath I breathe here is fraught with danger!"
The tavern keeper sent word to Dr. Hill to know what should be done with Murphy's body. He replied ---
" By G-d, I'm afraid to do anything with him. I gave the d-d fool money to go off on, and now as he has come back, I will have nothing to do with him; and the Evanses would rather kill me than Joe Murphy any day, were they to get a chance."
Murphy was taken down to his brother's, and buried the next

THE CONCLUSION.
evening. Dr. Hill and John Brown, the last of the party, left the country as soon as they could get away.
Here, reader, end the scenes of this bloody and exciting Feud - and gladly do I end it. You have the facts before you, and can reflect upon them in your own peculiar style. The Hills all left the neighborhood, and the majority of them moved to Washington county, where they now reside. They were a most distressed party, composed mostly of helpless widows and their numerous families of little, destitute children. They were truly objects of charity. It is uncertain in what land Dr. Hill chose to make his home, but it is believed he went into, Tennes- see and continued the practice of his profession.
Some people believe that the Feud has not yet ended, but that when the numerous children of these families become a little older, they will rise and avenge the blood of their fathers. But it may be hoped that Kentucky will not meet this horrible fate; for the tomahawk has long since been buried under the tree of peace, and the green grass of forgetfulness has grown thick over it. The memory of past wrongs may yet cause, in the surviving Hills, heart-burnings, but the history of the past warns them to value the peace and safety they now enjoy. The .past is dark and the future bright to them, and they will be slow to call down again upon themselves the miseries once experienced. The past stands to them a warning and a guide.
This narrative is not devoid of a moral. The reader has .before him two parties : the one, acting honorably and on the defensive ; the other, using every unfair means on the offen- sive. He sees the just come off victorious and with honor, while the unjust is vanquished and compelled to flee the coun- try in disgrace. Ile can view the one course with admiration, the other with detestation, and can choose between them in his own affairs. It clearly proves that, he who pursues an honest and honorable course, will, in the end, be triumphant over every obstacle, and rise above every attempt at oppression.
