THE OFFICERS
i
Think Watson Gordon Is a Criminal
q
Who is Wanted Elsewhere.

The officers think they thave
made an important catch in arrestin8
the negro, Watson Gordon, and they
feel sure that he is wanted elsewhere.
Gordon at first refused to talk at all
and when he did, tried to play crazy.
He asked the officers if they had any
Irish potato seed and when asked what
he wanted with them said he was
hungry. He soon found. however,
that the crazy racket would not work
and gave it up. His grip was pro-
cured THURSDAY and among other
things found in 1T, were small file
and crooked wire, WHICH are thought
be part of a burg outfit. In
addition to this they found on him
when he was arrested about forty
different kinds of keys. In his grip
was also found small book IN which
was writer: miss Mary Woodland,
Dickson, Tennessee. Gordon claims
to be barber and to have learned his
trade in Nashville. He is being
thoroughly investigated and it is ex-
pected that he will be found to be a
fugitive from justice.
