| Jeffrey Perry Col'd |   | Shot at 11 times | Political | Clem Gunn and 50 others (white) | None |   | This party belong near Camack. Pery is good old freedman has made a fine crop, is always at work. he is now so [[turn?]] stricken that he leaves for Augusta with his family, it has been reported to me privately that Pery shot one of the assaulting party and that he has since died. Pery has made the sheriff his Agt to look after his crop, which must clear him near $1000. There has been mounted men in town for the past two nights, I think looking for Pery, it is no doubt their determination to get him out of the way he lives nr Sd Brinkley Plantation. The assault was in the night of Nov 1st 1868 |
