As soon as the work of butchery was terminated, the five fellows decamped. Next morning a pursuit was adopted ; the robbers were traced by marks of blood ; and, close by a creek, in the vicinity of the house of the prosecutors; all the prisoners at the bar were detected in the very act of salting the pork. - The prisoners were identified, and that repeatedly, to be the men that entered the dwelling.
