Williams of Glltner. who waa on horse-,
back In the search, happened to ride
i over the spot where the murderer was
hidden and was startled by a revolver
shot. He beat a hasty retreat and gave
the alarm. A large number of the posse
rallied to the top dt a little knoll and
fired a volley Into the hay. calling upon
the man to surrender, without response.
William set fire to the hay. which soon
burned away enough to reveal the body
of a man apparently dead.- Members of
tha posse rushed In and dragged the body
from the flames. A bullet hole through
the head Indicated that the shot which
had frightened Williams had put an end
