robber entered the bank in broad daylight
and demanded the funds Of Carlisle, the

in drawing his revolver from his belt, and
Carlisle ran out the side door, through
his residence and to the street. Thinking
the robber had horse, he went behind
the house, and finding the horse there
rode about, giving the alarm.
The citizens gathered with guns, and

after an exchange of two dozen shots the
robber while running was wounded in
the left leg by a rifle ball and surrendered.
