 Pistol Slipped
 The sheriff and his force feel con tldent that one or the other of these five relatives slipped the pistol to BoEds when they were admitted for a visit Tuesday, shortly after noon. Jailer Harris accompanied them 10
 
 where three men, condemned 10 death, were being held awaiting the arrival of the sheriffs of their re- spective counties, but evidently did not see the pistol. cartridges and a few dollars cash passed through the bars.
 Break For Liberty
 The impression is that 1t was un- derstood by the family that Bond was to make break for liberty. and that they were awaiting him on some side street near the jail, for they got out of town very soon after the shooting and before they knew what had happened, who was shot or who was dead. The fugitives were pre- pared to do more killing if neces- sary on their way back to Greene county, as Sheriff Graham of Gov ington county, found a pistol and several rounds of cartridges in their car when he arrested them the same afternoon near the Lamar county line, Is miles south of Collins.
