feet that one Brown-a brother of David
Brown, who was lynchcd at Los Angelo,
some three or four months ago-hall or
ganized a band of men for the purpose Of
robbing and killing that he (Paine) had
been induced to join the band through
fear, and that portion OF the gang was,
at the time Of making the affidavit at Tur,
ner's Pass, in the neighborhool of the
Teion.
The people Of Lexington were very much
excited upon hearing this statement bv
Paine, and Immediately proceeded to Tar-
ner's Pass, where they arrested five men
William Watson, VIM. Hand, Adolpheus

named Garetson. These were taken to
Monte, where, on Saturday, the 18th inst.
