ifs of surrounding counties,
Sheriff Bowman Of Davis county, was
in to see Sheriff Emery this
morning and stated that he had
several of his deputies out securing the
foothills east OF Pennington for traces
of the men. Sheriff Harmon, of Pro-
vo, was notified and now has a posse in
the field working north from that city.
Sheriff Emery is of the opinion that
"Nick' Haworth has friends who will
render him every assistance IN making
good his escape. II is very probable
that some one In on the plot furnished
him a horse to aid him, With Haworth
on horse back, and knowing the coun-
try as he does and having the start
that he did, It would certainly be a very
hard matter to oyertake him. He Is
so well acquainted with the surround.

for him 10 seek place OF safety
whore he could elude his pursuers and
probably lie In hiding for an indefinite
time until the opportunity presented
itself for him to get clear out Of the
country. II Is the general theory ex-
pressed by those In connection with the
sheriff's office that Haworth has been
given assistance by his brother, wife
and friends, and that his capture is a
question of considerable doubt,
