T-559-3 (Third of Four Interviews) MARGARET SIXKILLER BAGBY, CHEROKEE .
INTERVIEWED BY: J. W. TYNERB
INTERVIEW DATE: MARCH 31, 1970.
GENERAL SUBJECT: HISTORY MATERIALS OF NORTHEAST ADAIR COUNTY, OKLAHOMA.
"Mrs. Bagby tells that her mother remembers seeing the U. S. Marshalls come by the Old Soldier Sixkiller place and stay all night.
When they had prisoners with them they were chained to a big Chinaberry tree that stood out in the yard.
The prisoners were usually on their way to court at Ft. Smith.
The Dunnaway brothers were chained to the Chinaberry tree when they were on their way to Tahlequah for trial in the murder of Wash Lee.
They were hung, and their bodies brought to the Lacie Cemetery northwest of Mission Church for burial".
In further connection with the Dunnaway matter, Mrs. Bagby reveals a piece of paper from an old book which reads: "The old lady, Cha-wa-lu-kee, was a Cherokee doctor, and the mother of the Du-no-wo-se boys, who killed Wash Lee.
These boys were hung in the year 1891, the hanging taking place at Tahlequah, Cherokee Nation. Indian Territory".
