JONES, THE CONVICT. KILLED
From the Enterprise, yesterday.
BISHOP CREEK, Dec. u, lS1

BISHOP Rec Dec. u, 1871.
ED. ENTERPRISE: There has been
another terrible fight with one of the
escaped State Prison convicts: The
particulars are as follows: Francis S.
ArmiStead, the man who was one of
the foremost in the taking of Roberts,
Morton and Black, found the track of
Charley Jones about fifty miles from
the head of Long Valley, on the San
joaquin River, and trailed him to my
sheep camp, where he was stopping.
ArGIistead had some talk with Jones,
telling him he wanted to hire a man
to drive horses to Arizona. Jones
hired to him for the trip, and thus
matters rested until morning. In the
morning Ar1nistead told me what was
up, and said that he expected to have
hell before he got through. While we
we're talking Jones went to the house
and got my Henry rifle, when he
came out and said-"EIere, you id
son of a b-h, l know your business.
You want to take Inc back 10 Nevada.
Hell, | will die first
When he had thus declared himself,
he at once drew up and fired at Armls-
tead. Arniistead instantly returned
the fire, his shot taking effect in Jones
right breast. The fight uow began in
dead earnest. and both lAeu being
armed with Henry rifles if was fearful.
There was almost q constant stream OF
fire, and it seemed that nearly every
shot took effect. The men were about
thirty steps apart. ,TCneS kept Giving
way. Armi-tead following him up till
he fell from loss Of blood.
When Arnli>teai fell, Jones rushed
upon him, bus Arnistead raised his
