nearly life-sized painting of an Indian

rested George Harvey and Mr..
Lutes in the north part of Freedom
township both of whom are want

both of them. They are now confined
in the Phillips county Jail awaiting the
arrival of parties from Nebraska who are
interested in the case or officers of the
law. We do not know any thing about
the merits OF the case but suppose there
is crookedness somewhere.
