MONK’S BLoODHOU A Military Monster Who Turns Up a Poor Tramp. From the Rolla Herald. The most exciting event that has attracted the attention of our citizens for several years was the arrival in | Rolla of Sergt. A. J. Walker, ot | Col. Monk’s command during the closing scenes of the war. At that) time he was better known in this | section of the State as ‘*Hell Roaring | Walker.’” ilelanded in this city | about dusk on last Thursday evening | putting up at the Pennsylvania House. His condition was mcst de- plorable: a frightful gash on top of the head, frozen feet, and scarcely clothes enough to cover his body. Before Mrs. Roberts decided to let him stay in the house he told aj strange story about a brether tramp being snot and killed near Crocker, i and that at the dying man’s request | he came to Rolla, where the dead | man’s wife lived, to give her his} The clothes he said oa clothes. in a large satchel at the door. The story alarmed Mrs. Roberts. She sent a messenger for the Marshal who came and examined the satchel. It was filled with bloody clothes, and builet holes were easily distin- guished in some of the garments. He was placed in jail for sate keep- mg and on Saturday was taken be- fore Just.ce Harrison for examina- \ tion. He gave his name as A. J. Walker, of Col. Monks command, and said he knew many people in this section. This admission sur- prised the officers, as Walker was looked upon as the most cold-blood- ed murderer that ever roamed the hills and valleys of Southwest Mis- souri during the war or any other time, but if he was the selfsame ‘Hell Roaring Walker,’’ how great the change. Henry Wood, grocer of this city, and during the war a private under Sergeant Walker, was | sent for to identify him, and after a lengthy conversation was positive that Walker was one and the individual. During the war Walker killed many a man: heartlessly and in cold blood, one of them the father of our fellow-tewnsman, Samuel Bowl- es, of the Frisco Saloon. The rap- ing of women and robbery were as a daily pastime with him, and to par- ticularize all would make Then he was young and knowing neither tear nor justice— now as deplorable a wreck as ever hegged for bread. He did not seem to fear anything and implored to be sent to jail, if only tor the night.
