Two months ago two Boston detectives
arrived ate Winnipeg and one became
acquainted with Brainerd. The other
afternoon one of the detectives and
Brainerd started south on a duck
shooting expedition. Several miles
from the city, in a lonely place, they
were joined by the other detective
and a friend. Brainerd was informed
that they knew who he was, and
wanted him to go quietly with them
across the border to avoid the expense
of legal proceeding. Brainerd refus-

him into a wagon and started for the
