Stanley Recaptured After Flight From Basin Jail
William Stanley, once jailed in Basin and accused of berating a man awaiting trial, was captured near Scribner, Montana, by Red Lodge sheriff's deputies. He had stolen a horse near Burlings, fled into the Crow Reservation and Pryor mountains, then found work on a pipe gang at Scribner before being surrounded and surrendered. He was delivered to Ble Horn County and taken to Casper for another charge. Authorities say Stanley is also accused of blowing up a Walton saloon after robbing a Mexican miner and taking his dynamite and clothes.
