POSSE WAS NEAR THEM

An amazing discovery has been
made that proves that the posse
searching for the Denbigh bank blow
ers. passed within mile of the rob-
bers' rendezvous on the Sunday MORN
ing following the burglary. A sack
has been found near the Mouse river
containing all the checks, drafts and
other papers stolen on the morning of
Oct. IA.
1t will be remembered that the trail
led south pretty distinctly as far as
the river where 1t was followed by
the pursuers, who later extended
their quest as far as Balfour. The
finding of the plumber shows that at
one time they could not have been
far from their quarry.
While at work on his farm, not far
from Willard, Eric Espeseth found
lightly concealed beneath a bunch of
hay, what appeared to be common
-four sack, rather dirty and partly
filled with loose papers. His surprise
was great when on closer examination
he saw the valuable nature of the
find and he lost no time in bringing
it to Denbigh.
This positive evidence that the ban
dts we're making TOR the 500 fixes the
belief already held in the minds Of
many that the Sawyer bank robbers
are the same that operated at Dem
bigh.
