After becoming thoroughly posted on

the gang, he on last Friday made his
raid on the Elkhorn branch, and after
working Friday night, Saturday and
Sunday, captured thirty.one Of the gang
and landed them In the Mcdowell and
Mercer county jails,
The arrests were made with very little
trouble except gang on Elkhorn from
Wyoming county, The detectives were
scattered along the line for three or four
miles.
Baldwin and another detective named
Wallace found where twelve Of the
Wyoming gang were staying in a hut.
Tho detectives went to try to arrest
them, although they had been cautioned
against them, as they were considered
dangerous men.
When Baldwin and Wallace reached
the cabin, they found four men and
summoned them as witnesses against an
other party, as they were afraid II they
put them under arrest they would have
trouble with their friends. All went
went well until near Turkey Gap, when
twenty.eight Of the Wyoming county

pistol and attempted to shoot Baldwin
through tho back OF the head. Before
he could shoot, Wallace told him to drop
the pistol or he would kill him, and at
the same time called to Baldwin to look
out, Only tho quick action Of Wallace
saved Baldwin's life.
