Outside asleep on the cushions of their car, were his other children, Jean and Jane, 5 and 3 years old. The family, with Mr. and Mrs. Tindall, had returned from the Socialist picnic at Muskego Beach near here, and had stopped to dance a few times at the Barg place, near their home.The bandit fired on Brager as Tindall struck the arms of his companion, nearly knocked the gun from his hand.
