arrived there the same night, and although well disguised, King’s friends, who were an- xious for his capture, soon spotted him, and Sheriff Whitehill was informed of the fact. The sheriff lost no time in getting after his man, but he had left town and taken to the hills. Whitehill offered a reward of $100 for his cap- ture, and in person, although worn out with travel, took the trail and followed it for some distance. Pat was finally arrested near Fair- banks, and the reward paid. He had cut off his mustache and discarded his false teeth, and it is said that these slight changes in his toilet so altered his appearance that his mother would not have recognized him. He had nothing to say to the reporter, but looked tough and dis- appointed.
