man, who was shot and thrown into

A farmer residing near Palmyra told
authorities that the man with two

at the point of gun had forced him
to give them food.
Several bits of evidence seemed to
point to the theory that O'Connor,
fleeing to his old haunts in st. Paul

have already killed one man with the
