reaching Albany, we found the Dubuque
two miles behind US. She was just landing
at raft, and the general impression was
that the outlaws had suspected pursuit,
and were about to scatter out on the other
side Of the rver Remaining at the depot
until this fear proved unfounded, PAYNE
forwarded dispatch to the Mayor of Gin
ton, requesting him to assemble a posse of
citizens at the steamboat landing to assist
his force if necessary, and the train pushed
on. Arriving opposite Clinton, the expedi.
ton dobarked, and after arming with clubs
in obedience to orders, marched across 10
the bridge. The bridge.master was in
structed not to open the draw, and the posse
was concealed in the thickets at the 500,
where the boat would be most likely TO land.
1t must be remembered by the reader that
stthis time 1T was the impression that the
boat was absolutely under the control of the
rufhans, aud was being used solely as 9
means of escape, and a savage resistance
was expected. But alas for the bes. laid |
plans of mice and men. They often 60
astray. When the steamer gave the proper
signal, the bridge.master feared to take the |
necessary responsibility, and concluded to
open the draw. To the dismay of the Rock |
