was a deputy marshal and stockman

We are confident that by making
the Improvements as herein outlined
that the said dam Will need no fur.

times and there are several grave
charges against him there, and since
he had served almost half of his SEN
tence here, it was thought best to tur1.
him over to the Wyoming authorities
Sentenced to Prison.
Lyons was arrested here in 1900 and
sentenced to six and one-half years in
the state prison for grand larceny and
burglary. He was an exemplary pris-
oner, and at the end of two years was
released on parole. He broke the pa
role twelve hours after his release by
leaving the state, but after a meteoric
career in cattle rustling and horse
stealing in Wyoming, in which he was
captured but managed to escape, he
returned to this state. This was in
1905. A woman, his paramour, proved
his undo.ng, however. Upon his re.
turn he sought her out and she i'm.
mediately notified the authorities, who
picked him up, took his two years and
all his good time away from him, ana
started him out on the whole sentence
again.
