Arrested for Disloyalty.
--
William Gunn,
Lewis Warner,
David Childress, and
Mrs. Ann Perrin, were arrested yesterday by the
Confederate States detectives, and committed to Castle Thunder, on the charge of aiding and abetting in the escape to the
Yankees of Sarah, a slave of
Mrs. Mayo, and another slave woman.
Upon
Gunn's arrest, he confessed that himself and
Childress had carried off two servants, and also admitted that they had been paid a consideration for so doing; that
Mrs. Perrin, at whose house
Childress resides, had received six silver
table spoons from
Mrs. Mayo's girl, and that
Mrs. Ann Perrin had gotten himself and
Childress to carry Sarah off. Subsequently to her arrest
Mrs. Perrin admitted that she had received the spoons and a silk dress from the two servant girls who had been arrested.
Mrs. Mayo, upon been informed of the arrest of the parties and recovery of the goods, fully identified the spoons as her property.
