down by Robt. Welsh. Mr.. Truman
aided Judge Young in questioning the
witness. Constable Cozzens showed
himself an excellent offer in finding the
guilty person and bringing him to JUS
tice. 1t was thought by Mr.. Cozzens
who was aided by Chas. stoker, that the
criminal was found and confession
would be male. Buster, in his confession
stated that he shot Frank Jones, the
Indian, because the wife of Frank Jones
said that she would be Busters wife if
he would kill Jones. Wishing to get the
woman Buster set out for Jones who
had gone to mountains for some wood.
When he met Jones, Spanish Frank was
riding horse near Jones' wagon. Fear
ing that Spanish Frank would get away
and tell on him ii he killed Jones, he
thereiore shot Spanish Frank first know
Ing that Frank being on horseback could
| get away if he should shoot Jones first
Shrit Hadley came down Saturday and
! took Buster to Winnemucca to be exam
