THE

VIGILANTES OF MONTANA.A FULL AND COMPLETE HISTORY OF

THE CHAsE, CAPTURE, TRIAL AND EXECU-TION OF ALL THE OUTLAWS WHO FIG-URED IN THE BLOODY DRAMA.

CHAPTER XXVIII.THE TRIAL AND DEATH OF JOHN KEENE ALIAS BOB BLACK

THE MURDERER OF HARRY SLATER." Oh, my offense is rank ; it smells to Heaven ;It bath the prima!, eldest curse upon it."--IAMLET.

The stern, yet righteo us, retribution which theVigilantes had inflicted on the murderers and marau-ders in the southern and western part of the Territory,had worked its effect, and little need was there ofany further examples, for a long time, in the vicinityof Virginia and Bannack; but the restless spirit ofenterprise which distingui-hbes the mineru of theWest, soon urged the pioneers to new discoveries,creating another center of population, and thither.like a heron to her haunt, gathered the miners, and,of course, those harpies who live by preying uponthem.

Many others who had spent a roving and ill regu-lated life, poured into the new diggings, which borethe name of Last Chance Gulch, situa ted on the elge Iof the romantic valley of the Prickly Pear, wherenow stands the flouri-hing city of Helena, in thecounty of Edgerton. second in size and importanceonly to Virginia, and rapidly increasing in extent,wealth and population. This place, which was thenregarded as a new theatre of operation for the il.-speradoes, is almnost one Lundres and twn:,ty-five miia.N. N. W. from the metropolis of Montana: and nosooner were the diggings struck, by a party col.-i-t-ing, mainly, of 'olorado men, than a rush w as madefor the new gulch, and a town arose, as if by magic.As usual in such cases, the first settlers were a motleycrowd, and though many good men came with tih•i,yet the number of "hard cases " wa- great, and wasspeedily increased by refuges from justice, andadventurers not ili tingui.h d for morality, or forany undue deference for the moral precepts containedlin the sixth asnid ighta comumandment-.

T 'osT, whichi is ioinutelyexact e;d reliable in all its dutails, is hore plre-etCl.The report says that, after th- arre-t of Keene andhis comunittal to the c.,ioIy of the Sherif, f -trtir.manifestations of digu lt were o-hewn by the crowd,which sooni collect d ii: fronit of the templrary lpi-son, and a coiuinttea at once formed to give themurderer a h aty trial.

A coutt-roomn was oon Iml rovised in an adjacentlumber yuad, tho prisoner march:,l into it. and the Itrial immediately commenced. Step!,en Reynoldspresiding, and tihe Jury comp,,sed of MI -ses..JudgeBurchett (Fourman), S. XM. Iall, Z. French, A. F.Edwards, - Nichol. S. Kaiser. Edward Porter,- Shears, Major Hutchison, C. C. Farm-r andEd. Ilou-e.

No great formnlity was observed in the commence-ment of the impromptu trial. Dr. Palmer, CharlesGreer and Samuel Greer were sworn, to te:-tify. Dr.Palmer started to give his evidence. when he wasinterrupted by the culprit getting up and making astatement of the whole affair, and asserting that heacted in self defense, as the deceased was in the actof rising witL his band on his pistol, and hadthreatened to take his life, and ona formei occasion,in Great Salt Lake City, had put a Derringer into hismouth.

A Mr. Brobrecker then got up and made some veryappropriate remarks, cautioning the men on thejury not to be too h:sty, but to well and truly per-form their duty; weigh the evidence well, and givea verdict such as their conscience would hereafterapprove.

Sam. Greer then tstifiid to being an eye witnes-of the d'ed. Heard the first shot; did not think any-body was hit; told Keene to "hold or," 'when liesaw Slater fall over; did not hear any words spokenby either of the parties; did not know for certainwhether the prisoner was the man who shot Slater.

Prisoner-I am the gentleman.Dr. Palmer said that when he made an examina-

tion of the deceased he did not find a pistol in hisscabbard.

Sam. Greer-The pistol was put into my hands,and placed behind the bar by me, after the shootingtook place.

Charley Greer. (sworn)--I have been sick lately,and was too excited to make any close observation;was not more than three or four feet from the partykilled, when theshooting occurred; thought the manwas shooting at some dogs in tho saloon.

Charles French (sworn) says: Came down street;stopped first door below Lyon's barber-shop, at theclothing store of Barned; saw a man coming up thestreet towards Greer'rsaloon; heard some one cry,"Don't shoot, John; you'll hurt somebody." Soonafter, saw the man shoot; thoughthewas only firingoff his pistol to scare somebody; but he saw thedeceased man fall, and the other go down street and Iturn into an alley. Don't know the man that firedthe shots.

9 .-- Isthis the man ?A.-Cannot tell; it is too dark. (A candle was

brought.) I think it is the same man; I am prettycert.un it is.D'. Palmer again testified: The deceased wasehot

over the right eye; never spoke, and died in threeminutes after being shot.

James Bincs, (.worn)--Was on the opposite sideof the street; heard the first shot fired, and saw thesecond one. Heard Greer say, " hold on," and sawthe man fall over, and the other man go through thealley.

ICelle by the crowd for James Parker.]James Parker, (sworn)-Keene overtook me, to-

day, on the summit, coming from Blackfoot. Werode together. lie inquired of me whether Slaterwas in town, and toll me of some difficulty exi~tingbetween them, originating in Salt Lake City; Slaterhaving thrust a Derringer into his mouth, and runhim out of the city.

Prisoner here got up and said. That he had toldParker be hoped he should not see Slater, as he didnot want any difficulty with him, or some such con-ersation.James Geero (Bogal) called for, (sworn)--Here

the wind extinguished our candle, and being In theope. air, before we could relight it, we missed all thetetimop but the last words.-RaRoarsr.] KLownothing about the shooting affair.

At this moment a voice in the crowd was heardcrying e - " i Kehs, come here "-which causedthe pars to close around the prisoner.

Mr. Philips, (sworn)-Don't know anything aboutth aair; bat saw Slater fall. Don't know who

led. Knew what Jemn Gero may to be true. Sawiater dt i. this position, (beei Mr. P. showed the

.laser was in when shot); saw Slater sitting

eLmrs Aid-wiswt stter

in a conversation about the Vigilance Committee oflast ear. Slater then called him a Vigilante a-of a - , and drove him out of town; this was inSalt Lake City. Then he went to Virginia City, andfrom there to Blackfoot. Slater was a dangerousman; he had killed two men in Boise. He said hehad gone to work at mining in Blackfoot, and cameover to Helena, on that day, to see a man--Harlow." When I first saw Slater, to-day, he smacked my facewith both hands, and called me a d--d Irish s-of a b- , and said he would make me leave town;I went and borrowed a revolver of Walsh." Herequested them to send for an Irishman called Mike,who works on the brickyard, and who heard the lastconversation. He wanted Mr. Philips to give a littlemore testimony.

Mr. P.-I know him to go armed and equipped;saw him draw a weapon on a former occasion; sawhim make a man jump down twenty pair of stairs.

Motion of the jury to retire. Cries of "aye! "and ' no! go on with the trial." A voice--' Sendfor Kelly, the man who was talking to Slater at thetimoe he was shot." Cries of "Mr. Kelly ! Mr.Kelly !" and "Dave St. John." Neither of thesemen could be found.

A motion to increase the number of the guard toforty was carried.

PI'isoner again asked to have men sent for his wit-

Jack Edwards-I am willing to wait till morningfor the continuance of the trial, but the guard mustbe increased; I hear mutterings in the crowd abouta re-cue.

A Voice--It can't be done.Pl i-one,-I want a fair and just trlal.Preparations were now made for a strong guard,

iorming a ring round the prisoner.Obr jections were raised, at this juncture, to whis-

prling beirg carried on between the culprit and hisIfriends.

A report caune in that the Irish brickmaker couldnot be found at his shanty.A motion to guard the prisoner till morning, to

give him time to procure witnesses, was lost; butbeing afterwards reconsiderel, it was finally carried.Judge N. J. Bond then got up, and in a short and

able -pe-ch to the jury, advisel them to hear moretetif.ony before con 'icting the prisoner. lie alsoproposed the hour of 8 a. in., next day, for the meet-gi, of the jury, and the hour of 9 a. m. for bring-

in• in their verdict. This latter proposition itsagr:,d to, and the prisoner taken in charge by theguard.

The dense crowd slowly dispersed, talking in a lossblool-tiirsty strain than they had dtone three or fourho;urs before.

s:-co,-n uYr.The morning dawned serenely upon a large con-

c.nur - of people, standing before the prison and infrout of the California Exchange-the pliaces electedfor a jury room.The jury met a few minutes past S a. in., and Mr.
