Rifle Ace Escapes Into Wyoming Wilderness Siege
Earl Durand, the 26 year old who killed four, vanished from his canyon stronghold as a wartime howitzer and trench mortars were en route to blast him out. Posse men found two slain officers, and Durand is believed to have slipped down to the bodies before fleeing across the ridge into Sunlight Valley. Authorities prepared for a wider manhunt with National Guard artillery while Durand left a note at a ranch house warning he faces capture.
