Escaped convict Brooks Storey recaptured by Mississippi officer

Sergeant D P Montgomery of the Mississippi penitentiary seized Brooks Storey yesterday, placing him in irons on a train to Montgomery. Storey, once famed for evading capture, was quickly secured aboard the 3:20 to Montgomery after Montgomery received governor’s requisition papers. A reward of 250 dollars was posted for his capture. The arrest followed reports of Storey’s Florida trip, deception about his origin, and prior residence in Mississippi with a wife and four children. The event ends with Storey back in custody and the arresting officers to receive the reward.
