Bill Turner.

shop. 1907 Pacific ave. at Q a. m.
Art Meier. operator OF the loan
firm, was slugged over the head
by a gun in the hands Of DE
courcy. The young man asked to
see gun. and Meier drew the
.3s-caliber weapon from the dis
play case.
Suddenly De Courcy drew a
loaded .32-calibre gun from his
pocket and said Give me your
money"
Struck BY Gun
Il made shove at him." Meier
told Detectives Clyde Stidham and
Joe Devereau later. Then / ran
around the end OF the counter to
get at him.
He grabbed his own gun by the
barrel and hit me over the head.
The blow made me see stars. He
hit me so hard the magazine fell
out of the gun"
shouts Defiance
De Courcy dashed out the door.
His flight attracted the atten-
ton of c. o. Patrick, 1901 Pacific
ave, who was on the street.
Shouts of Get him" sent Patrick
and two other men after De
Courcy.
The gunman fled into the alley
and hoped into his car. Patrick
and his companions followed in
Patrick's machine.
They were following when De
Courcy failed to make a turn on
Roosevelt ave. and wrecked the
car. He jumped out, flourished
his gun and shouted Come and
get me. boys"
Woman Gives Tip"
The invitation was not accepted
by his pursuers, who were un-
armed. They watched him as he
vanished near the hospital, then
went to summon police.
Sheriff and state patrol cars,
augmenting squad of prowl car
officers already in pursuit, con-
verged on the scene when the call
of the wreck was flashed to them
by radio.
Detectives Turner and Lesnick
were among the first to arrive.
While others hunted in the brush
near the wreckage, Turner and
Officer Olmstead followed the tip
of woman who said the bandit
went that way"
Turner spotted him about five
blocks away from the wreck.
Wife Was Near BY
HE still had the gun" Turner
said. Il Topped on my stomach
as he came toward me. He finally
threw his hands in the air and said
I give up
"The gun was the one he got in
the holdup, and wasn't loaded. He
didn't have the magazine for his
own gun either-but l didn't know
it at the time"
After De Courcy was hand
cuffed, his wife appeared and gave
herself up. Police said she was at
the hospital visiting her father. a
temporary patient. After De
Courcy wrecked the car he ran to
the hospital and told her what he
had done.
Woman Released
She was nearby when he made
the break for liberty in the North
Roosevelt Heights district. and
voluntarily surrendered to police.
The woman was released as soon
as it was established she was not
connected with the robbery.
De Courcy was taken to the Of

Il Just want to let you know that
am wishing you all the luck in the
world in your efforts To win the
nomination for the GOvernorship in
the coming primary in May. voted
for you in 1882 and my box went for
you then. Also the county. too; but
you are going to have more opposl-
ton in CASTOR this year than you had
before Broughton is going to give
you the most trouble. don't hear
much about Horton up here. and
nothing about any Of the others.
You sec the Holy Gardner Ring
seem to be for BroughtOn. Only to-
day Max Gardeners brother (Bates),
| suppose you have heard of him,
came TO me and asked me to work
for Broughton. He is 4 pretty good
politician, but not good enough to
get me to work for Broughton as
long as you are running.
Il have been and shall continue
to do everything in my power for
you. have d very good following up
here in CASTOR county. In '36 | polled
5000 votes against j. H. Separk for
the state senate. He beat me by about
300 votes.
He is lined up for Horton now,
but don't worry about Horton up
here in CASTOR county, but keep an
eye on Broughton. My box and pre-
cinct will go for you, to or better.
II believe it would pay you to
spend a good bit Of time up in the
Piedmont section. You know there
are lots Of votes up here.
Gregg Cherry could do you lots
of good if he would do it, but Gregg
doesn't want 10 make anyone sore.
