A graphic story of the capture was told today by Sheriff Chase. “I had been getting reports of mysterious men seen around Quil- cene for a couple of nights,” he said, “and last night I decided to go up there to investigate. After con- vineing myself that we were not on a wild goose chase I took auto- mobile load of aeputies along the Olympic highway to a bridge that I knew the bandits would have to cross, “We left one man in the antomo- bile, with the spotlight in such a po- sition that it coud instantly be switched on to the bridge. Then the rest of us hid in the brush on the roadside. “Finally the men appeared. The moment they hit the bridge the spot was turned on, and there they stood in the bright light, a perfect target. I called “Throw up your hands.’ Browning obeyed, but Grant ran. I fired at him twice and several of the deputies shot too, but he was too quick for us, and got away. “We searched for quite a while without finding him, but finally spotted him under the bridge. “My akn was better this time and as he started to run again I shet him, the bullet entering Just above the right shoulder blade and ranging downward. “*You've got me,’ he groancd as he fell.” In addition to the bonds and jew- elry stolen from the bank, deputies found $5,000 in cash on the men, who claimed that it was their own and had not been taken from the bank.
