Owingsville May 30th 1865 D W. Lindsay Adjt Gen of Ky Dear Sir

It is now important that we should have some of Barberss men or some other armed force at this place

see Gov Bramblette -- A reward was offered for Wilk Warren for the Murder of Adamas some 40 or 50 days since -- The Gov offered it & he will know all about it -- Wilk Warren is rather a crazy man than a dangerous man that is my opinion but is certainly responsible

2

for his acts -- He is a badman=now it turns up that James L. Warren the father of Wilk has arrested him for trial- has employed counsel (nothing wrong in that) & I hear is to be brought to Owingsville for trial this evening -- I hear that he has a copmpany at his house now for what purpose I do not know, for the worst I fear It is the interest of of Wilk Warren & all others that the death of Adams should be investigated fully & willbe But it is important to the state thatthosewhoarematirialwitnessesagainstWarrenshouldfeell&be secureintheirpersons -- Send Landers Barber over here by

3

anorderexpressedthroughItoughttobedone Do all you can to have some armed force here -- such a note from me might take you by surprise but it will not take any one by surprise who Knows me well -- We have distempered times & need something more than the civil force to ensure the execution of the laws I write in haste & have the mail waiting on me

Yours &c B D Lacy County Atto of Bath County

Asks that Barbers men be ordered to that place or some other armed force as it is very necessary for the safety of material witnesses against Wilk Warren for the murder of Adams -- says he hears that there is a Company at Warrens house now for what purpose he does not Know but fears for the worst. needs something more than the civil force to insure the execution of the Laws --
