 McGloin turned and struck the robbeI in the face, nearly knocking him down. The two men then clinched and fough6 desperately. Cole managed to get one arm free, and with his revolver he pounded the saloon keeper viciously, inflicting three se- We're wounds on the head.

He then turned east and at State street boarded a south bound cable car.
