A proclamation de- claring martial law in the counties of Fayette, Kanawha, Logan, Boon@ and Mingo was drawn up and signed, ready for promulgation. As the expiration of the time limit fixed by the President approached, communications from West Virginia officials and citizens poured into the War Department and White Houss in an almost steady stream, all of the messages asserting that the armed ‘bands were disposed to disregard the order to disperse and calling—in urgent language for the employment of Federal troops. Representative Echols wired from Charleston that the President's prociamation was Be- ing “contemptuously ignored.” Former Gov. Hatfield at Logan telegraphed the Presifent an appeal “for relief,” declaring that “the wiping out of a peaceful and prosperous community will unquestionably happen within the next twelve hours unless Federal troops are despatched."
