MYERS CAPTURED
rurther Details of the KilIina
at Crooks Corral.


Thomas Myers who shot and
killed George Brownlee near
Crooks corrall last week Was cap-
tared Thursday at George Behan's s
ranch on Snake river by Roy Cor
don and Fred Reed as he was com
ing to White Bird, SO he said. to
surrender himself to the authori-
ties.
The details Of the trouble as near
as can be learned are, that Brown
lee and Jarrett were taking a
bunch of cattle to the summer
range and, as had been the Gus
tom for years, drove them through
Myers claim. They were some
distance past the place and had
stopped to rest the cattle when
Myers who had evidently followed
them came up from behind and
shot Brownlee with a 5000 rifle
using q soft nosed bullet. The
ball entered the side of his back
passing through his back bone and
must have caused almost instant
death. When Jarret heard the
shot he looked around and saw
Brownlee fall from his horse and
saw Myers just as he fred the
second time. This shot struck
Jarret in the fleshy part of the
fore arm, passed through cutting
his bride reins and piercing the
ears of his horse. This SO frighten.
ed the horse that Jarret was
thrown to the ground and fell
down the steep hill side. Myers
fired six more shots at him but
none took effect. After running
about two miles Jarret secured an
other horse and made his way to
the ranch Of G. j. Hall from
which place Richard Crooks car
ried the news to White Bird.
When the news reached there Roy
Gordon and DR.. Faskett left for
the scene of the trouble and the
morning captured Myers just as he
was passing George Behean's
ranch. At the time of his capture
Myers carried a 3O-3O rifle and
three boxes Of cartridges but offer
ed no resistance and said he was on
his way to give himself up.
The remains of Brownlee were
taken to White Bird where an in
quest was held and then to Cot
tonwood where they were inferred
Friday afternoon by the Odd
Fellows of which order he was a
member. Jarrett's wound is not
serious and he will soon be from
under the DOCTORS care.
Myers was brought to Grange
vile Friday evening by Sheriff
Seay and his preliminary hearing
is set for June 1st. He refuses to
make any statement regarding the
shooting or offer any excuse for
the rash act. AS far as is known
there had been no trouble between
the parties and it had only been a
few days since he had told Brown
lee and Jarrett where they could
find his keys in case they wanted
to enter his cabin during his alb.
sence.

The custom of shaking hands origi-

Shaking hands appears To have be-

parties joining in compact. peace IT
