Bitter Root valley. came in town yesterday
and told him that when he went home Fri
day night after delivering a load of wood
BLACK Mike" asleep in his barn. He gave
the man a kick and asked him what he was
doing there. and the man woke up and said
tnat he had turned a trick and pulled
out $50, which he offered. to divide with
Clark, adding that he had killed "One-eyed
Louie" and went on and told how he had
him on the head with a rock, and threw
him over the railing of the Missoula bridge,
If he had killed the old man for his money,
and he said: Yes: $50 is as good to me as
to him., and a dead man tells no tales" lie
