The Daily Dispatch: August 13, 1861., [Electronic resource], [Communicated.] (search)
for a passage home; but, hearing of his bad character, I refused him. Finally, out of sympathy for his destitute condition, and of his family connexions, I took him with me on a voyage to Cardiff Wales. He repaid my generosity by threatening to shoot me. On my arrival in Cardiff, Davis promised better behavior, and I retained him; but scarcely had a week elapsed before he kicked up another row. He invited the Captain of a French ship on board of my ship, he (Davis) representing himself as Captain of my ship. He broke into my cabin and stole brandy and other liquors. While drinking with this Captain he had invited, he assaulted him with a bowie-knife, and came near killing him. He was taken by the authorities of Cardiff, tried and sentenced to four years hard labor in the galleys in London, and he came on here, in the ship Susan G. Owens, with Capt. Norton, three months ago, when he went to Savannah. He is a desperate man, and a man of no moral principle whatever. H. S. Lelby.
