(Continued from First Page.) jpulled out of town mighty quickly. I was accompanied by Sldna Edwards, Frlcl Allen, and Uncle Sldna Allen.

Then I got a man to take charge of my mail routa. "That night I camped out in the woods and in tho morning I went to an old choolhouse, where I built a fire and spent the day. 1 took oft my shoos and ilaaed about the schoolhousc and was rmlghty cheerful after a night In tho woods, for the weather was chilly and 'there had been a heavy rain. "On the following night 1 burrowed deeper into the woods, trying to leave no trail behind, for I knew that the mountains would soon be full of man Ihunters. On Sunday I met Sldna Ed yards. He told me that ho had seen a. large armed posse, nut that he had dodged It. We stayed together until Friday, when Edwards was caiight. I was right close to the posso that cap tured him, but they didn't see me "Wo did pretty well In the way of food, and I didn't miss a meal the en tire time we were being hunted, But I ireckon 1 m not going to tell who bup .plled us. I don't want to get anybody 'else In trouble. Officer Got the Drop. "I never had an intention of fleeing the country. And It Is u fact that I was out there in the woods sitting on i a log thinking to myself that it would ibe best to surrender when along comes that officer, Mr. Lucas. He had a gun in his hands and he got the drop on me, but that didn't make any difference for I didn't Intend to do any shooting .anyhow, unless the other fellows start ed to shoot first. I reckon 1 let him get the drop on me for 1 saw him coming I through the brush and could have kill ed him easily. "I expect to be punished and I am glad that tho thing Is over, for It is ,no fun being hunted. I expect to go .to the penitentiary, but they will never eend me to the chair. I don't think I ikllled anyone, and If I did It was by accident. I was only trying to save Daddy. "I lon't know anything alout mv relatives, for Sldna Edwards Is the only one I have seen since we palled after Ithe shooting. 1 got considerable infor mation from one source and anotlur, nnl I kliDW that there was a reward out for us. I knew who was caught and who were loos?."
