Then he shut himself up in bin
hniise with hit familv uud vowed ho
would kill anyone who tried to cap
ture him or to take his- children
from him. The sheriff did not dnro
order the lioue rushed for fear Iho
woman and little "lie would bo kill
ed in the .fight. '
It was the children's suffering
from hunger which finally forced
Heardsley to offer terms. Sliou'iug
from u window to the sheriff, he ttr-rnuged-u-
conference.
The sheriff npTonched the front
door. The deputies were reonircd to
group themselves at one. hide with
their IiauiN in the air. Thero .Mrs.
IllcariUlcy held them covered with a
shotgun. Her husband, heavily
armed, negotiated with Sheriff An
