gang were left in charge of Deputy Sheriff
Garrett, and Nelson started in pursuit. 1t

made at the famous rsce at Hawks Corners.
When he came upon the fleeing men they
turned upon him, and rough and tumble

over the head pretty severely with his pistol
and then marched them back to work. He
convinced them that he 'meant business"
