KENTUCKY LAWLESSNESS
Armed Men Besiege a Court House at Barbourville,
and Bullets Fly Thick and Fast.

BARBOURVILLE, KY, March 6
E. Messer with forty armed men of the Slusher party, arrived from
Flat Creek yesterday, and caused a great alarm. Circuit Court being
in session, Judge Boyd place a strong guard around the court house.
But notwithstanding this the factions opened fire in the court house
yard, using Colt's 45-caliber revolvers. William Day, one of the
Smith faction, received a dangerous wound in the leg, and Messer's
clothing was pierced. The presence of the guards and the falling
snow prevented further damage. Before embarking, for their return
the Messer party threw cartridges into the stove at the depot and when
asked by the agent to desist, drew knives and carved the stove pipe.
