His Experience In Lincoln.When it sot dark. I stole a car and went to Uncoin, where I was well acquainted. I thought I was safe there, but a woman who knew me, named Violet Dingman, ‘bawled’ me out In the officers and said I was wanted. A crowd gathered and I dodged into a house and stuck up a man named Ryan. He wan a sensible guy and made no trouble. I told him :o keep absolutely still, as it was either him or me.The crowd hung around the house but was not. sure I was in there. I figured that the best way was to walk out the front door which is what no | on® would expect and at dusk T slipped ; out. I ain't admitting that 1 shot two ■ officers a‘ Lincoln, nor admitting that I was surprised at all.After being recognized In Lincoln.T figured out that the best place for me would be the Medicine Bow country In Wyoming, where I knew the country and where I could hide until the excitement blew over. So I stole another car and changed the lieensc plate and struck across country, keeping out of sight, and securing oil and gas by draining cars.I needed a new car at North Platte 50 I took another automobile of a common make Rtid not notjcoablo. I followed the Lincoln highway to Sidney and camped. I sure showed the boobs there, a good time. I simply stueK. them up and tied the two officers with their own suspenders and the boys with an old blouse which I j tore up.
