he would see something that would do
his eyes good. Sheriff Lewis
accompanied by Andy Burt,

returning in few minutes with
harness, which he was in the act of
putting into the buggy, when he was
interrupted by Deputy Sheriff Burt
with, hold on there, " The man logged
and ran, followed by Burt, who flew
after his man as though he
were on skates. Before he could grab
him, however the fellow scaled n fence

killing him The officers are positive
1t was Whitaker whom they saw and
who ran away. The harness proved to
