never put In an appearance afterwards
While in the midst of the attack Vim
uohe rushed upon a daughter of the
sherif and threatened to kill her.
MISSED FIRE.
another fellow held a revolver close
TO the heart of Andrew Greer, a one
armed son-in-law of the sheriff. and
pulled the trigger, but it missed fire and
the next instant the one fist of Greer
relied the would-be assassin to the
floor.
The sheriff's family were up stairs
and one of the mob seeing them at the
mead of the stairs, rushed viciously at
them, but some one threw him head
long to the bottom.
Between 3 and o'clock this morn
ing, after the mob had moved further
down the street the prisoner was hand
CURED, taken through a side door and
then TO side alley where a carriage
was In waiting. Police Captain Faux
ner and Officer Sweeney took him to
Sandusky county as fast as the horses
could carry them. Citizens viewed the
scene of the tragedy today by the hun
dreds. Many people refused to believe
that the prisoner had been taken away
and at o'clock a crowd numbering
hundreds started to make another at
tack, but wiser counsel prevailed
FINALLY to pacify them one of their
number who knew the murderer, was
allowed to search. He did not find the
prisoner and so informed the crowd,
but they refused to believe him, when
Company E of the Second regiment of
militia of the city was called to guard
the building.
This afternoon a crowd again sur
rounded the place. They became so de-
termined that a committee of six well
known citizens again searched the
building. Among the party was Mayor
Rex, and when they had finished the
search, he appeared on the front steps
Of the building and in behalf of the
committee said the man could not be
found. Citizen Faulkner, who had just
returned from Sandusky county, spoke
to the crowd also. They could not help
but be satisfied, and the greater part of
them dispersed.
