A Score of Indicted Murderers

The Washington Post 
Sept. 1,1890 Winchester, Kentucky

Capt. Garther, with about thirty soldiers, arrived here last evening, having in charge twelve of the notorious French-Eversole faction, who have been a terror to the law-abiding citizens of Southeastern Kentucky for the past two or three years. After turning the prisoners over to the jailor of Clark county Capt. Gaither and his men went on to Lexington last night. All of the prisoners are under indictment for murder, but the fact does not appear to have a very depressing effect on their spirits. French and Eversole are young men, and their appearance does not give any indication of the desperate characters they have proven themselves to be.
