lington deliberately walked out
It was not known until 9 o'clock that
the condemned man was at large.

evidence of hard usage. They be-
longed to different parties along the

here charged with assault with intent
to kill While at Sedalia he told a

cured that he had concealed the re-
volver with which he did the shooting
near Ottervi1 o where it could be found
The young man got the revolver. took it
to Boonville and gave it to Turling-
ton. That evening when Sheriff Gran
mer went into the Jail burlington drew
his revolver and demanded his release.
Cranmer drew his revolver and accord
ing to best accounts both fred about
the same tine. Cranmer was fatally
wounded burlington was captured be-
fore he had gone very far, was tried for
murder, convicted and sentenced to be
hanged November 81. Before his trial
he told the story of the Pryor creek
train robbery in the Indian Territory,
and said q man named Temple had as
sisted him in the robbery. Temple was
apprehended at Fort Worth, Tex, and
is now in Jail at Fort Smith, Ark.
