It reads in part: "We the grand jurors. have become satisfied that the following persons are also guilty of a wicked and felonious rape upon the body of Nancy Burns viz. Wm. Harper Lorentine Miller David McCummins and that proper measures be pursued for the arrest and punishment of these persons whom we also learn have fled the country.
