The Life Of Logan Belt PDF Download

Excerpt from The Life of Logan Belt, the Noted Desperado of Southern Illinois: A Complete Life History of the Most Daring, Desperado Ever Known to Civilization But we pass briefly over his youth, giving merely a running sketch, his after life being of most import to the reader. Suflice it to say that young Belt was ever skipping from trouble, first to Kentucky and then back to Illinois. A depredation would be committed in Egypt, whereupon he would flee to the Dark and Bloody Grounds to escape punishment by the strong arm of the law. Ere long, however, he would commit some deed in violation of the laws of Kentucky and another skip from justice would follow. In youth he depended altogether upon time to rust the wheels of justice in mature manhood he relied solely in scaring off and killing off important witnesses. Those that could not be frightened into fleeing the country were killed, and thus the ends of justice defeated.
