Under Sheriff Rutter was on guard in the cell where the four men were confined at the time. Jailer Dillard came to get the supper dishes. The prisoners seized him and Rutter and overpowered them. One of (hem then went to the kitchen and secured the Winchester and lay in wait for Jack Williams, one of the guards, who had been down town. When he appeared he was shot through the body and fatally fa-tally -wounded. Dillard and Rutter were then beaten almost into insensibility insensi-bility and the men left. |
