1t wCs learned yesterday that this
dog had been the boon companion or
Ryan for years. John Ats who
camped for six months with the man
now murdered, said that the dog was
Ryan's closest and best friend. The
two were together at all times The
dog was never tied AT night Whe1
the travelling optlcian would make his
bed in the wagon, the dog would jump
on. the wagon tongue. climb from there
to the seat and curl up. keeping guard
over his master throughout the night
Tied the Dog Securely.
The man and the woman who
planned the murder apparently knew
of the dogs affection. Before they
started in on their deed they made
sure the faithful animal was securely
tied

Ryan's Movements Traced.
The movements Of Ryan have been
traced up to Saturday night by The
Herald and by officers working on the
case. Every circumstance discovered
yesterday pointed to the crime being
committed Saturday night, the muir
derers escaping the same night. NO
significance is attached to the pres
ence of a surrey with gray team and
a single buggy in the vicinity late sun
day afternoon as Mrs. Soren SOrensOn
Ryan's wagon Sunday, saw the bEll-
dog tied TO the wheel and observed that
no living person was in the vicinity.
They did not notice the heap OF quilts
lying on the ground, coucealing Z,
corpse.
As near as can be ascertained, the
crime was committed between $3.50 and
10:30 o'clock Saturday evening. The
horses We're not taken away. Tt would
have been easy for tho man and fha
woman to walk to Murray in half an
hour and take a street car to salt Lake.
The conductors and motOrmen on the
late cars that evening do not remem-
her seeing anybody answering TO tha
description of either. but say the
might have ridden TO town without &
ing noticed.
1t would have been barely pos=
for The pair 10 reach salt Lake in
for the Rio Grande train leavinl
Ogden at 1880 p. m-4 but it IS de-
more likely that they took the orr
Short Line train for the north lea
at 1890 a. mr. unless they remains
hiding in Salt Lake.
