When Lindsey discovered he had been
tracked and the officers were upon
him, and demadned his surrender, he
arose and thrust his hand into his
pocket bringing forth his revolver.
Mr.. Daugherty fired and missed him,
whereupon the fugitive started off in
a run. The sheriff, who was armed
with a shot gun, allowed him to get
a safe distance to prevent a load of
shot from doing deadly work, and then
fired, aiming at his legs. The shot
struck Lindsey in the hips and back
and as he reeled in the direction of
the officers, shouted he would surren-
