James Sabin and Tony Christie were found guilty in Reno District Court for the Brewery saloon robbery. Ex-Sheriff Hayes was among the victims. Sabin’s wife cursed Johnny Hayes during verdicts. A Tonopah wagon driver, W Stewart, assaulted Mike Backley during a robbery attempt but fled after a shootout with prospectors present.
