inent young men of this section, and was
greatly beloved. (He had been prominent

wherever he was known.

Hains C. Wiok'haiu, prominent in the civil
war and as the head of the Chesapt-ake
and "Ohio Railway. He spent the earli

For several years he was very promi?
nent in military circles and fhe colonel
of the First ??G??p??. Cavalry, which he

cial.?Mr. W. ?Dean Pugh dropped dead in
front of his store this morning. He was
apparently in' perfect health, ?and; had
been ' out "shootkti?; robins just before he
was found dead. H??art failure is sup?
posed to be the cause of his death. Ha
was the senior partner of the firm, of
Pugh & Jennings, merchants at Red
House, Charlotte county. Va. He leaves
?a. wife and two young children, boy and
girl; four brothers and a ?later. He was a
consistent member of the Presbyterian
Church. The funeral will take place to- ;
?morrow evening in the family burying
ground, near Red House.

60 yards.' Tho effect of this volley was
terrible. Morrisey was killed instantly,
his brains being scattered over the (boat
and crew, and Dillon was mortaliy
wounded, never recovering ^consciousness
and dying shortly afterward in the boat..
Seaman 'Rindors had his fingers cut off*
tho hand, but kept bravely to his star?
board stroke oar. The starboards cars
ware riddled and most of them shat?
tered; besides, the'boat was pierced by
the Remington bails and made water
fast. t
OPENED FIRE.
As soon as possible after recovering
the first shock rwe opened fire with the
Colt and rines. The ambush was so com
! plete that we could not see at what to
: tire, not even the smoke. The Colt was
thrown out of action before the second
volley. The order was given to back
oars, but as only a few could be used,
the others being shattered, the tide drift?
ed us on a sandbank. Ellsworth. Ed?
wards and' Woodbury tried to swim the
boat out, but did not succeed. The vol-?
leys poured in on us from the left
bank in quick succession, wounding
mortally McDonald. At this time I was
of the impression that most ot the crew
were either wounded or killed.
I gave the order to hoist the white flag,
which was done-by Rinders, who received
a shot in the right wrist? and dropped the
flag. I thought the enemy intended to
massacre all of us, so continued to 'fire,
the fire of the enemy coming faster. We
were now hailed from the left bank in
Spanish, the officer saying that if we did
not cease firing .and surrender he would
kill us. I then surrendered. '-.?"?
LINED. UP TO BE SHOT.
?Before, the officer on the left bank
could get across the savages on the right
hank came up, took us off the boat? and
robbed us of everything. They
'" tied our arms behind us -with
bamboo ' thongs ' . and lined us up
on the beach to be shot. Those who
[had rifles loaded them and had them al?
ready cocked when the officer arrived
and. ordere?i,-?therwise. ??*? 'were; then
?sent on 'the boat, and after plugging no
the "holes made by the rifle balls, pulled
up the river. .
I regret.to say that I then'found the
following casulatl?s:
Morrisey and -Dillon,. landsmen, deaa;
2?igard-?nd McDonald,? ordinary seamen,
mortally ?wounded; VanVille, apprentice,

up the river and were allowed to Hake
the mortally wounded from the boat and
place thorn on shore and to. arrange th?

wounded we carried with us to the Com
niandaJat's office, about a mile and a half
