regulation army suit and cap with red
band.
He is younger than Chris by three
years, being AZ years of age, has been a
member of the army for several years,
belonging in Los Angeles, Pasadena and
San Diego.
When asked regarding the correspond
ence which had been stated occurred
between his brother Chris. and himself
shortly after the express robbery, he
declared it to be mistake that he had
not received any such letter and that he
would not have gone had he received it
for he did not believe it would be the
right thing to do. Continuing he said,
II do not think that they will ever con-
vict Chris. of the train robbery, l don't
think he did it and if Sontag and he had
not resisted the officers when they came
to arrest them they would both have
been free men today instead of one being
dead and the other in prison.
'The trouble all began with that fight,
and after that there was nothing to dc
but to keep going. The Southern Pacific
company did not use either Chris OF
Sontag right, and it was their hatred ol
the company and the belief that it was
back of the attempted arrest that made
them resist the officers in the first place.
Chris is as good-hearted man ss ever
lived, never forgetting friend or an
enemy. This trouble which has come
upon the family has been most terrible.
but by the grace of God have been able
to stand it,"
