Gene Vert, a prisoner in the
county Jail awaiting trial on an
indictment for horse stealing,
escaped last Thursday night.
Deputy Sheriff Terrill was look
ing after the prisoners and had
allowed Vert to go to an out
building. 1t was just at dark
and the prisoner got away.
Sheriff Richardson got on his
trail the next day and kept
things pretty hot for him over
in the Silver Creek country.
Vert had no horse and could
not make much time besides he
was handicapped in that he could
not get provisions. Yesterday
they struct his track leading out
from Silver Creek toward Wag-
ontire. The sheriff went on out
ahead and Chas. Couch secured
the service of a few citizens of
Silver Creek and gave chase.
Vert seems to have doubled on his
track and came back to Silver
Creek and gave up. He says he
wasn't trying to get away but
merely went to see a party.
