and put the matter irio the hands Of a

Pugh proceeded 1t once to New Mexico.

trying to negotiate for Push's claim and
beat him out Of it, and that Pugh be-
fore taking the stISe IN which he was

man. II is also regarded ms highly In
probable that the Apaches would allow
him to drop a letter in the road saying:
Il have been captured by the Apaches."

]supposable only Of disguised robbers,
who had a motive aud purpose Tor tax
