Sisters and mother of Kdgar C. Rey
nolds, cracksman, burglar and highway
man, still grieving over the loss of the
wayward son and brother, who was shot
to death by police officers last Junuary,
gave their small savings yesterday to pur
chase cheap Jewels that belonged to him.
The Jewelry and other property found
upon Reynold's person after his death
were sold at public auction In a room In
the county building by Murdoch O. Jlac
leod, administrator of the robber's ostatel
The automatic pistol, a fine polished
blue steel engine of death, was sold to
Italph I - Reynolds, the 15-year-old
brother of the highwayman, for $15, The
boy also purchased his dead brother's
gold watch, paying $10 for It.
Doubtless that pistol struck terror to
many a heart when the steady hand of
the robber, elbow at side, trained It upon
the wayfarer and his eyes, cold and blue
no the cold blue of the stepl, gave ad
ditional menace to tho command "Hands
up."
Probably most of the Jewelry old by
the administrator was torn from men
and women while they looked Into that
cold barrel of steel.
The property was appraised at U72. It
was believed to be worth much more
than that. The sale realised but 1176.50.
Sheriff McShane made the largest pur
chase, giving- 176 for a pair of diamond
earrings.
Julius V. Reynolds, the aged father of
the highwayman, was the only relative
not present. He is at the county hospital
and was too feeble to go to town, Yet
when the grand Jury was in session last
spring he was not too feeble to go before
the inquisitors and seek Indictment ot
the police officers who fatally shot his
boy in a running fight. He said he
wanted Justice for his son, no matter if
he was good or bad,
Mrs, H. D. Tyson, Reynolds' mother;
II. D, Tyson, his stepfather; his brother
Ralph and his two sisters, Mrs. Charles
II. Holman and Miss Esther B, Reynolds,
remained through the entire sale. All
live at 3921 North Twenty-second street.
Mr. Tyson did most of the purchasing
for the mother and sisters. He bought
Jeweled stickpins and rings, a bracelet,
a gold cross and chain and other articles,
for which there was little bidding. The
amounts paid for these ranged from 5
cents to ft. Other bidders bought dia
mond cuff buttons for 110, a diamond and
pearl brooch for 115. a revolver for $.
Sheriff McShane entered the room Just
as Administrator Macleod "put up" the
diamond earrings. The sheriff said noth
ing until $75 was bid. For several min
utes It appeared the Jewels would go at
that figure, when McShane leaned for
ward and bid $76. No one would bid
higher,
The sheriff opened his wallet, extracted
four yellow-backed Wi gold certificates
and threw them down before tho cashier.
"Where did you make the ralfe?" asked
some one wno thought he was a humorist.
