but asked to go up stairs for his
coat The request was granted,
both McKechnie and Johnson ac-
companying him in order to avoid
any possible mistake. Reaching the
head of the stairs, Burke suddenly
wrenched away from his captors

which he slammed shut. The door
had night latch on the inside and
the fugitive fired a couple of shots
back through the door as warn
