evening OF the robbery the party-consist-
ing Of, besides Jesse James, Dick Little
and the old gang, John Bugler, Creed
Chapman, John Mott and Henry Bugler-
met in wild spot near Glendale Station
and perfected the plans for stopping the
train. John Mott was at that time agent at
Glendale Station, and he furnished lantern
and red flag to signal the train. Land took
the lantern and stopped the train,and while
lessee James and Dick Little robbed the
express car the others of the party robbed
the passengers. AS soon as the robbery
was committed the gang repaired to an old
house in Cracker Neck forest and there
made a partial division of the money; but
pursuit being organized so soon Jesse James
took possession of all the money and valua-
bles and with the members of his gang fled
to Clay County, advising the Cracker Neck
boys to go about their business and assist
the officers in the search, promising to make
an equal division of the money, and at some
convenient time return and pay each party
his respective share. This part of the pro-
gramme was, however, never carried out,
and none of The natives ever received any
dividend.
