education was mainly Self-acquired.
When at home he was hardly ever
without a book, and although Ameri-
can born-born and raised in Balti-
more-he could speak both French and
German fiuently. His health was very
bad and he once spent seven or eight
months In one Of the Philadelphia hos
pitals. l am a baker by trade"
From what the men who followed
him from Bessemer said," remarked
the representative of THE ENQUIRER, 81
gather that he has been down In this
country before. I say this for the rea-
son that his Inquiries Of people along
the line Of his flight indicated famil-
iarity with the names of towns and
railroads, ETC." In making the obser-
walton our representative especially had
in mind the idea that probably Young
was with the gang that blew open the
Flanagan safe at Bowling Green a
year Or two ago.
YES" Mr.. Heironomous replied
rather quickly. HE used to travel with
the hippodrome. He had charge OF
feeding the animals and got good pay
for 1t. He went down as far as Tam
pa, Fla, and started to go on to Cuba;
but they sent him back to winter
quarters with some of the animals that
they decided not to take with them"
What hippodrome was that?" was
asked.
Il don't know the name Of It," Mr.
Heironomous replied. 1 never asked
him and he never told me-"
Taking up the subject on a different
tack, the representative Of THE EN-
oUIRER said:
well, Mr.. Heironomous, from such
information as have, there Is no doubt
of the fact that this man Young was
member Of the party who blew oper
the safe at Forest City. Some Of the
cash found in his possession has beer
positively identified. Mr.. Simmons
manager of the Forest City store
saw Young there the day before the
robbery getting twenty dollar bills
changed, and saw him again after he
was shot and before he died. He Is
the same man. It Is certain that there
were three in the party. One Of the
three was arrested at Marion, n. c.
last week, two days after the robbery
and Mr.. Simmons, who saw them both
tells me that they are as much alike
as two peas. I would infer that the
Marion man Is your other brother-in.
law"
At this Mr.. Heironomous appeared
to vince little; but he quickly recov.
cred and replied: "Oh no, that Is 6
mistake; his brother don't look like
him. Besides he Is at his home in Bal
timore dying from consumption. His
brother Is older and stouter-he was
stouter, until his last illness came on
No. this could not have been his broth
err"
It was so evident in the opinion OF
our representative, that even II Mr.
Heironomous knew anything along this
line, he would not tell 1t, there was nc
really serious attempt to draw him
out.
The body Of Young had been buried
before the arrival Of Mr.. Helronomous

terry shortly after the inquest, and DR.
Dulin took Mr.. Heironomous to the
spot yesterday morning. 1t was deci.

however. The railroads would not take
it in its present condition, and the re.
moval to Baltimore will have to bt
postponed.
At the inquest, Drs. Dulin and Pat
rick made a thorough post mortem ex'
animation. 1t took them nearly three
hours. They found that the pisto
bullet which penetrated the hip had
passed through the kidneys. 1t would
have produced death. The othel
wound was probably also mortal, and Il
may have been that the charge Of bird
shot would have been sufficient to kill
During their examination the doctors
found the spleen and liver abnormally
enlarged, the lungs in tuberculous con.
dition and the heart out Of its proper
place. All this went to corroborate
statements that the deceased had pre-
viously made to DR.. Dulin with re-
gard to his physical condition. Among
other things he had said, If it had
not been for the diseased condition OF
my heart those fellows would have
never got me. I would have outrun
them"
Sometime during Tuesday afternoon
Mr.. Russell stepped up to Youngs
bedside and said: Il am mighty sorry
to see you in that condition, my friend
and hope you will get we'll"
you had no business firing that last
shot," replied Young, reproachingly.
Why" argued Russell, your bull
let had just knocked the bark from q
tree within foot Of my head and you
were preparing to shoot again; what
else was there for me to do?"
"Oh, WE'LL" returned Young. "say NO
more about it. I am much obliged to
you for your sympathy and I forgive
you."
Later in the afternoon, Rev. w. A
Arrowood, pastor Of Bethel, come to Of

man reminded Young Of his condition.
and asked him to make his peace with
