Both officers bad n writ for ouo Davo Smith, charged with larceuy and in troducing, who they knew was camped in that vicinity. Suuday morning it was proposed, with no thought of dan ger, to "go up and give Smith a round."

Dalton stsppod up to tbo door and was immediately confronted by Smith, who shot tbo officer In the breast, mortally wounding him. As Smith turned after shooting Dalton, Deputy Colo shot blm in the body and ho foil forward. Will Towloy then rushed out nqd shot at Oole, who rutreatod backward and, tripping on a tent ropo, fell, when he was shot in tho right breast, the ball ranging out at the right side. He sprang to his feet and used his Win chester as best he could, but tho wo men rushing out checked his fire to somo extant, and ho took refuge be hind a trco. Tbo men all haviug by this time takon refugo In tho house. Cole loft on foot, under tho impression that Dalton was dead.
