Show DECEMBER FRIDAY, 30, B0ERY COUNTY PROGRESS, CASTLE DALE, UTAH 1049 MEN (Cont. from p. 1) Well fix you up, this colt will do, . Smiled Butch as cool as ice, And heard the doctor set on Snail A hundred --dollar price. HEAVY-HOLSTERE- D Heres sixty bucks," the outlaw said, Dont fret about your pay; Youl get the rest, and soon, but we Must have this horse today. He chuckled as he worked and said: I hate to do this, Doc; One time I maybe saved your life. And now I steal your stock." Then as the riders cantered on Into the Utah hills, Doc smiled how bank and railroad funds Butch used to pay his bills! But that is how Butch ruled his gang Of men; He kept his word with all alike. And split the spoils with them. He stole outright from no one man; He went for bigger stakes; He liked the cash, but also liked To beat them on the take. Now there were many in that band; Good gunmen tried: and true, Fcr any gainful purposes Butch wanted carried through. His favored pal was Elza Lay An educated man Whose cultured mind was not averse To any hold-u- p plan. For one new job they planned to make The biggest they had done; They spent six months in casing" it, Camped out in Huntington, From autumn eighteen ninety-si- x Till April there they stayed As friendly cowboys; no one dreamed What high finance they played. And then as payroll day drew near For mines at Castle Gate, These two would watch the trains oome In, And loaf around and wait. They played the game and knew it well One locomotive toot Would signal the arrival of The train that bore the loot. But on the regulation day That signal never came; The mine and railroad men were wise, They played a canny game. So Butch and Elza bided time And loafed again next day Among the hundred mining men Who waited for their pay. twelve came one lone blast At half-paAnd soon the train pulled in, But movements that the cowboys made Were lost amid the din. Then from the train stepped Carpenter d in gold; With And Phelphs and Lewis carried more, Each had one bag to hold. And when they reached the office stairs The action shifted fast; The gunmen threatened to produce A different kind of blast. Hands up, they cried, and drop those heavy-holster- ed st seven-gran- sacks. Phelps tried! to push on by; Lay staggered him with one swift blow; The others didnt try. They dropped the sacks, Lay grabbed them up And leaped upon his bay, But Cassidy was left afoot; His own horse wheeled away. No panic showed' upon his face; He boldly held his ground; His gun appeared to draw a bead On every man around. He glided backwards tin one hand The silver money bag, As Elza cast a running glance To see what made him lag. Lay wheeled his horse, caught up the reins Of Cassidys grey steed; Butch made a running leap and then Was off with clattering speed. A cloud of dust, a shot or two, And then a fusilade; Commotion, shout, and that is how They made the payroll raid. They dropped the heavy silver bag. They cut the wires and rode Out over Washboard flat from where The trail to Buckhom showed. One posse left from Huntington, And one from Castle Dale, To seek among the craggy cliffs A vanished outlaw trail. And deep in Buckhorn Draw that night A gun fight rattled out; Each posse thought theyd found their game And put the theives to rout. As fast and clamorous in the dark Across a ridge they fought, A little sorrel racing mare Named Pigeon got shot. It struck her hip and made her lame, Joe Miller on her saw As the battle of the posses Thundered out in Buckhom Draw. But what they didnt know was this: They never had a chance; The outlaw band had taken care Of every circumstance. For Butch and Lay had stationed men On three reputation FULL NUTRIENT Senior Scout Basketball The second team listed is the home team.

That payroll hold-u- p At social times they made a hit With ladies old and young, So even when they got in bad Their praise was loudly sung. And when old Peter Murning heard About the bandit job Done by these honest boys, he said, And almost with a sdb, To old Jens Nielsen, where theyd lived For nearly six months long: Oh, Mon, were innocent men, but But apt to be hung in the wrong!" But when he learned the payroll haul Was on the rangy bay Named Chunk a sturdy PM horse, Ridden by Elza Lay, His eyes had an Irish gleam, he Burst out proud and bold: Oh Be Gods, Im glad I had a horse That good to pack the gold. Now it aint right to steal the things That other folks possess, But there are thrills in the deeds of Bold gunmen, nonetheless. As England had her Robin Hood; The Swiss their William Tell, So we had men Who rode the San Rafael. They rode with gay Butch Cassidy The wild bunch that he led On rootin-tooti- n shooting raids For possemen to dread.
