Fred Reardon Shot in Wyoming.

MIR. F. +. Bedier, Of this city, received
a letter Monday from his son, Louis f.
Bedier. who is living on cattle ranch
near Big Piney, Wyoming, giving the
particulars Of the shooting of Fred Rear
don, a Decatur county boy, son of MIR.
and Mrs. Thos. Reardon, of near Grand
River. 1t seems that one of the COW
boys, bad man, had raised check
from $500 to $1,000 and secured the
cash on it from Fred Reardon, after
which he left the country. The forgery
was soon discovered and constable
Chasles Holden, Fred Reardon and
some others started after the fellow who
was overtaken about 60 miles away.
He refused to surrender, killed constable
Holden and shot Fred Reardon twice,
through the right hand and through
the left breast, but it is thought he will
recover. The COW boy was then captur.
ed and brought back to Big Piney
where he was promptly strung up to a
tree right in front of Mr.. Bedier's home.
Fred Reardon has many friends in this
county who Will be panied to hear of
his accident, but trust he will soon re-
cover. Louis Bedier is doing we'll on
his cattle ranch and reports prospects
very favorable. Farther west of them
the cattle and sheep men have been
having trouble over the range and he
says 5000 sheep were killed and a
sheep man almost killed few days ago
by enraged cattlemen.
Thomas Reardon, of Grand River, was
in Leon Monday and tells us he has re.
eeived letters and kilograms from DR..
Fl. G. Bone, who is attending Fred say
ing he is doing fine and will be out in a
few days. After being shot Fred rode
90 miles and walked two miles and DR..
Bone says he stood the trip like true
soldier. Fred's many friends in this
county will be pleased to learn that he
is now out of all danger.
