| received from him was dated Feb. 1st.
He said ii his life was spared he would
be with us by Christmas at thefurthest.
He knows the detectives are on his
track. You can easily see why he
dare not write, as q letter, no matter
where mailed, would be almost certain
to fall into their hands. ] believe he
is engaged in mining in some secluded
spot in the mountains, though, OF
course, do not know. Ii he is alive
and not pursued by detectives, be.
lieve he will come. | know that he
still loves us. The evidence in my pos
session shows hey ond a doubt that he
Is still as devoted to us as when We
last saw HIM twenty years ago. 1t has
been sad his depredations and robbing
are confined exclusively to the Wells
Fargo Express company. | do not
say that to excuse him, for God knows
he has enough to answer for; but oh,
sir, he has some noble traits OF char
acter, and ii they would only leave him
alone ! know would henceforth lead
an honorable life
Mrs. Boles has lived in this city l2
or l3 years. She has three daughters.
two married living here. The third
lives with her mother and Is an es-
timable young lady.
