the field nearly sixty days looking for the
two men. His trip under United States
Marshal Gard was the most arduous Of the
many he had made. The party had suf-
iered great priyaiions while cain ping on
the trail OF the robbers. Burns was not
taken along as a fighter, but because he
was thoroughly acquainted with every
foot OF ground and in that regard he proved
to be an extremely useful man.
One Incident which has escaped the
attention of the reporters who have so
graphically described the circumstances of
the battle of Stone Corral was related by
RapelJe. This was the appearance of two
other men on the scene about half an hour
before Sontag and Evans walged into
ihelr trap. One was driving
cart and the other mounted met
him On the road near the house in which
the posse had concealed themselves. They
stopped and spoke for several minutes and
then continued on their way. Rapelje
says he believes these men were friends OF
Sontag and Evans, and were looking for
them in accordance with a previous ap-
pointment to bring them to Visalia, which
point the outlaws were making for that
Sunday afternoon.
In regard to the capture OF Chris Evans
after he was wounded, Rapelje said thai
he had the first information that the
wounded man had taken refuge in the
house of Lie Perkins. He had received
h'o Ohsu d lcllcI lftUI
friend who was very intimate with Mrs.
Chris Evans. He had communicated with
Deputy Sheriff Hall and there was an un-
derstahding that Raj elje was TO run down
the stricken game. But, in violation of his
COMPACT, Hall started out On the same
mission, his only object being to secure
the reward for the ca pture of Evans.
When Halls party were seen driving SO
furiously in the direction of the Perkins
house RaDelje believed they were friends
of Evans and concluded to follow them.
Rapelje at the time did not know exactly
under whose roof Evans had taken refuge.
His only information was that the
bandit was somewhere liz the vicin-
ity. When be arrived at the Per-
kins house it was still dark. Mrs.
Perkins informed him that Evans was
lying wounded upstairs. and was so badly
hurt that he could offer no resistance.
Rapelje asked for light. but did not wait
for one. He walked upstairs in the dark.
When he reached the room where Evans
was lying Hall struck a match. lighted a
candle and claimed that Evans was his
prisoner.
Rapelje returns south TODAY.

About eighteen years ago in the summer
of 1875, says the Visalia Times, there oc-
CURED fight between two men On noun
tain ROAD in this county. that has just been
revived by recent events. That fight was
between Chris Evans and an old man by
the name Of A. D. Bigelow.
Many conversant with that trouble still
live here aud in different parts of the
county. and from some of those persons
we have gathered the facts of this story.
Close to the northern limit of Tulare
County and on the western slope of Red
wood Mountain is located the site OF the
old sawmiil long known as the Hyde mill.
In 1875 or Whereabouts the mill was owned
by Il. E. Hyde and run by Joseph 81.
Thomas, both of this city. Among those who
worked at the mill, or among timber near
the mill or teamed between Visalia and the
mill were Chris Evans. his brother-in-law,
Louis Byrd, and A. D. Blgelow.
Bigeiow was known at the mill as
literary fellsr." for he occasionally wrote
for the papers and had the reputation of
being something of poet besides. One
morning there was a sensation in camp.
Chris Evans had found tackled up ON

to lay its authority upon Bigelow.
Evans soon found an opportunity to
