A DETECTIVE'S ' STORY ,
, *
An Instance of the Reclamation
ot a Convicted Felon.
The Trno Story of thn RctlcmpUor
of a Young Man Who HnA Boon
a Convict Soverril Times-
SAM Kranclno Col I ,
"Do you believe it is possible for r
mail to rctriovo a lost character niu
bccoinu nu honest uiul useful citizen
nftcr once boint ; a convicted felon ? "
Those words wcro addressed to tin
one tiny in the spring of 1878 , in tin
alouping car of the eastern-bourn
overland train. They were spokei
by n man whom I Inul never sicti
whoso acqunintnnco I liiitl m.ttlo th.r
tlay whilti wo were bowling alonj.
through Wyoming Territory. I Inu
been in California nearly thirty years
and this was my lirst visit unst sinci
my arrival here in 1810. Nearly linl
th it number of years had been npenl
JIB < ui nflicerof the law , and of coursi
1 was well versed in the uriiuiim
history of our stale.
1 looked ut my interrogator slmrplj
for n second before I nuswored him
for the reason that the question win
put in u very peculiar tonu of voice
1 replied : "Yes , but not often. "
The answer seemed to please tin
party , and ho asked mo to narrate au ;
circumstance of such n nature tlm
iniglit have como under my observa
tion , which I did , aa follows :
"In the year 1848 Ultra lived ii
one of the eastern states a family con
mating of the hnsbind , wife ant
three children two girls and a boy
They were educated people , an <
moved in the most respectable society
In the year before mentioned , tin
head of thin family was duly oloctet
to the senate of the state in which In
lived , uiul upon the meeting therco
ho was choHon to preside over tha
honorable body. In the spring o
184.U , the gold fever being then at it
height , ho , with hundreds of others
caught it , and the result was a voyng
to the golden state. He had one
been a sailor , and owing to his atipo
rior knowledge of nautical matters
ho was tendered and accepted th
command of a fine vessel that hai
boon purchased by nn association o
gold hunters , and in the capacity u
captain ho came to California , briny
ing with him his wife and children.
"They arrived here in the fall o
40 , and soon became quite wealthy
After a residence of several years h
was elected to the judiciary , and final
ly died , respected and honored by al
who know him. The boy _ , now felt n
it were to look out for himself , see
fell into bad associations. Ho wn
fond of horses , and embraced over
opportunity that u tiered to seek 01 ;
the native Culitoniians and Mexican
( then more plentiful than now ) an
assist them in driving their great herd
of horses and cattle , that were run
ning comparatively wild on the broa
plains surrounding the bay of Sa
Francisco.1
THK BAD MEX OK THE DAY.
At the time of which I speak th
country was infested with desperadoes
Such mon as Tom Bell , Jack Powori
Narcisso Bojorques , Procopio , Jua
Soto , Pie Ochoa , Pancuo Altamorant
and many others , had full swing c
the country , from San Diego toSisk %
you. Whole bands of horses and civ
tie were often run off , and if th
owners attempted to follow , the
wouldjbo either driven back at tli
point of iho knife or pistol , ornu :
dercd outright.
"It is not to be wondered at th :
the youngster I am telling you abou
should have eventually fallen in an
associated with these mon. He ha
learned to speak Spanish as iluontl
as a native , and , in listening to' the :
stories of adventure as they sat aroun
their camp fires , he became infatuate
with their mode of life , and finall
changing his name and became one i
them.
"My first acquaintance with hii
was in 180. , . lie , with three othors-
Mi'xicans called at the house of
farmer in one of the central countii
of the State , and , knocking at tl
door , asked for a drink of water. Tl
farmer's wife was alone , and natural ! ;
was much alarmed at the appearam
of so many armed men at her door ; bi
she turned to go into the kitchen f <
some water. As she did so , one of tl
party grasped her by the throat , an
prevented her from making an outer ,
while the others tied her hand an
foot. Completely helpless , she coul
do nothing , and remained quiet. Or
of the men held a cocked six-shooti
at her head , while the rest of the gai
searched the house for plunder. Ol
taming what little money there was i
the dwelling , they tied the woman fate
to the bed , and , mounting their horn
road away into the mountains towai
San Jose.
"Tho oycs of the woman had in
been idle. She hau impressed upri
her mind the faces of the whole gat
the young American aiming tl
rest. I was sent for to investii ale tl
cose , and from the perfrct descriptii
given of them by the woman , I EOI
made up my mind as to who the guili
parties wero. I secured all thn
after n hunt of more than a vt-ar ; b
of my search it is not necesjary
speak. I will only relate such of tl
circumstances im are directly conuccti
with the subject of my sioiy. 1
was the first one arrested , arid upi
being confronted with the woman , " '
identified as one of the gang who In
robbed her. Ilo pleaded guilty ai
wan sent to San Quentin for outi ye.
"I saw nothing moio of the you :
man for about two years , when , ha
poning to bo in San Jose in compa :
with another oflicor in search of HOI
c.ittlo that had boi-a stolen ( wo h
Htarted out just at the break of da ;
when turning the corner of a atriJ
wo r.ui against our young man , w
w.is with as u-'ly a looking npcuiin
of u Mexican as I ever paw.
" 'Hello , ' I said , 'What are you t
ini ; horuatthU time of the inornin
for no one was yet astir-in the town.
" 'I am going after my horse , '
replied ; 'I am working on n lanch t
on the road a piece. '
"I suspected that they wore up
Home mischief , so wo searched tin
and on each wo found an eight-ii :
Colt's revolver.
A PLAN ttUSTHATKI ) .
" 'llather nice tools to go to w

you in and turn you over to. I
sheriif ( the late lamented J. H. <
ams . NVedidsonnd they were fmet
for carrj , ing concealed w eapan ? , ant
having no money were compelled ti
serve thirty dajs in the county jail
lie told mo afterwards that our CAUS
ing their detenaion prevented then
from carrying out a plan to run oil'i i
band of fine horses they had deter
mined to take.
"Another year passed without inj
seeing the young man. One tlay ' .
received a dispatch from one of tin
northern countries , stating that i
valuable American mare ( ilcscribiiij
her ) had been stolen from that coun
try , and asking mo to keep a lookou
for her , as the thieves were cominj
my way. I soon found , not only tin
animal described in the dispatch , bu
several others ; and found them to <
with our young American , and in in ;
own county. Ilo was hold , tried ant
convicted , and the horses weio re
turned to their rospccuivo owners
This time ho again pleatled guilty
mid was lot ell' with one year's impris
onment in the stale prison. Hi
served out his term and was liberated
Afterward I met him occasionally , bu
ho would only pull his hat down ovt <
hia oycs and try to avoid mo. Lite
I heard of him at San Jose , and tin
he wns about to be married. On th
very day of his wedding ho was at
rested nn a charge of having stolei
six horses from a farmer in the cell
trni portion of the 'itato. .Me wns ik
tained in j.iil about four months , nn
wai finally discharged , there being n
evidence to convict him. Ho re.ill
had nothing to do witli the stealing t :
those horses , as T afterward recoverc
the animals and ariested the real cu !
prit and had him sent to the stat
prison.
"lie wus released from the San .los
jail , every botiy believing him to bo th
real thief. 1 lost eight of him fit
more than a year , when one day as
was coming from the upper eountr
on the Central Pacific railroad th
train stopped at a station , and wh
should get aboard but this young mar
lie saw me , and , as usual , tried t
escape my notice. Aftcrtho train ha
got well under way I left my scat an
wont and sat beside him and ontnre
into conversation with him. I askc
him what ho was doing , and all aboi
himself. Ho told me ho was marriet
and bad quit the old business forovei
Of course , I thought that was barol
probabb , ns very few of his class foi
sake their unlawful calling. Hut li
assured mo it was true , and tin
ho had done nothing of the kin
for several years. In repty t
my question of what he was doni {
ho said ho was on his way t
a town ( I won't mention the name ) i
search of work ; that employment ha
been promised him , and ho e.xpecte
to get it. He further .stated that li
with his wife had a room , where the
had been living , at the station i
which ho had boarded the 'train , an
that all that ho and his uifo had hn
to eat for four dajs wns some soil
crackorsj with only water to drinl
The tears started in his eyes an 1
told mo this. The train stopped an
wo both got oil' 'Now,1 said 1 , '
what you toll mo is true , and yc

"In about an hour he came to m
I saw at a glance that lie had bee
disappointed. 'What success ? '
askod.
" 'None , ' ho replied. ' 'I did n
got the work. "
A GRATEFUL PKNITKXT.
"Calling him into my private ollic
I had a long talk with him , and at tl
end took a handful of silver from n
pocket and handed it to him , savin
'Here , take this ; it will keo ] > you f
a few days , and in the meantime ] w
try to get you work to do. '
"He took the money , and look *
me full in the face for a Hoenn

the room and burst hit > the most en
rowful cry I over heard , llosobln
as though his heart would break J

ed for him a job to cliivo a six-hoi
team. I returned and told him wh
Iliad done. His face lighted up wil
the satisfaction he felt. Hudrovo tl
team for about two months , and tlu
got a job driving a Band cart. I
tinaliV secured easier employmen
Since that time I have entrusted hi
with the care of property , where , hf
he been so disposed , he could ha'
stolen hundreds of dollars ; but lie w
true to his resolution , lie hw ; nov
returned to his old coinpanioiiH or the
evil ways.

Aa I finished my story my comn :

hands , silently thinking , and thim
rode milo after milo without speaki
any more , liut why did ho uuk i
that puticular question in such
peculiar way ?
I know why. but ho never H
peeled that I did.
I know that there was a blot up
memory's page that had boon a torte
to him for many years. 1 know tl
ho , too , had mrnglcd hard n
bravely to drive into oblivion a to :
bio mistake made in his early you
and for which in a fur away caiti
prison he had paid the penalty.
I know from what ho mid. i
questions ho asled during our ti
that it pleased him to know that

any possible clmucobohunmno enough

now a thorously honest man , having
the fullest contidcnce of his employ

might keep him so.
