Dash for Liberty Brinks Two Escapees From Jail
Deputy Evan Jackson pursued Andy Hays and Dunk Brinkley after they slipped from a jail cage during feeding. The pair fled by horse, were captured in the square, and returned to custody amid a large town gathering. The incident ends a planned, daring breakout that failed. Graham mining prospects interest locals as Col. B. E. Graham pushes trials of ore, with a 35 foot shaft core suggesting silver. Interests are mixed, some skeptical yet awaiting assayer results before capital enters.
