squares between himself and
his pursuers.
The MayfieId men jumped In

stable and followed. In the
chase Harris gun dropped out
and the deputy jailcr was pow

from his pursuers. All he could
do was drive.
At the Home OF the FrIendless

broke down and Hart ran into
an alley with his charge. He
. was observed by one Mayheld
scout, who pulled a pistol and
demanded him to bring the ne
gro along.
