Taken Into Custody in a Confused Jail Case
White Willington, a Spanish American representative, protests he did nothing to break jail. He says other prisoners forced him to flee. The group included two murders and two train robbers who rode to Mills Ranch from Denver about three months ago, with Willington serving as foreman since. Aged 87, he seems not a bad man and wrote to a cousin revealing his location, which led to arrest. He denounces Oregon officials and praises Dept New Mexico and local aides, then heads to California with Weirwuin. The notice ends with an unrelated sermon invitation for Roy Russell and the capital’s education loss.
