To such we would say that Willie was associated with two of the most exciting episodes that Ever occurred in Danville one being an attempted Highway robbery and the other a jail delivery. Green was arrested of the night of october 13, 1902, in company with Andrew Lynx after on townsman. U. Y James had been hell up near the Corner of Moharch and East Market streets. Along with Andrew Lux Green Lay nearly three months to prison awaiting trial during this interval along with Lynx he broke jail. The excitement caused by the jail delivery will be readily recalled. It was sunday afternoon Aud the fugitives were far of their Way toward Freedom before they were missed by the sheriff. They were captured in the Railroad Yards at sub try by officers of that town and were returned to Tho Montour county prison. Audrew Lux was foam guilty of attempted Highway robbery and was sentenced to ten years in the Eastern Penitentiary. He is still serving sentence. A Willie Green was thought to to dying of consumption Aud Bis Case aroused much sympathy. The evidence did not show conclusively that lie had participated in the Holdup and be was acquitted of that charge. He was found of jail breaking tint because of his feeble health sentence was suspended on condition that to would leave Danville Aud never return. A a Willie agreed Rozaily enough to give Danville a wide berth for All time but with what Fidelity be has lived up to ii a Promise is Manifest when it is explained that to the positive knowledge of the officers yesterdays visit to Danville was the third that Green has made since he was before court. He evidently thinks lie is very astute hut on occasion of each visit he was detected by the officers a few boors after he arrived. He received his ultimatum monday when chief mince Moyer gave him Oue half an hour to get out of town Aud told him if he Ever reappeared Here to would take him into custody had deliver him Over to court. When last seen Green was on his Way to Mausdale Aud he Wasny to losing aug time neither. A life of travel poems to agree with a a Willie Aud to has taken of flesh since i left Danville.
