broadside, measuring 9 x 11 inches, printed on thin, salmon colored paper, old folds and creases, chips and tears, recent paper repairs, some soiling, else good. Very rare reward broadside seeking information regarding Oscar Gaddy who had murdered Eubanks, a white man. The broadside gives Gaddy's physical description and other particulars. Local newspaper accounts provide some account of the events: "The circumstances of the killing appear to be as follows: Supt. Eubanks heard some shooting going on in one of the negro huts this morning and went to see what was the matter. Upon arriving at the door of the hut, which was filled with negroes, he said: "Who is that doing that shooting down here?" Gaddy was lying on a bed with the pistol in his hands, and replied: "Its me and I will shoot you G-da---- you!" Then Supt. Eubanks advanced into the hut, having in his hand a small cane. Without saying anything further, Gaddy fired into Mr. Eubanks' face killing Mr. Eubanks instantly. After firing the fatal shot Gaddy jumped out the door, dropped his pistol and fled as fast as he could " - The Landmark, Statesville, NC October 9, 1906. A posse of some 200 men joined the search and lynching was spoken of openly in the press. It is unclear whether Gaddy made good his escape, there is no mention in local papers of his capture several weeks after his flight. Given the nature of the crime, the time and place Gaddy most certainly faced a grim fate if captured. This broadside appears to be unrecorded.
