THE HUNTERS ARE ARRESTED
Old man Hunter and son, of the upper
Mimbres, whom the Enterprise mentioned a few
weeks ago as having fired on George Nye, were
arrested last week by Deputy Sheriff H. E.
Muse. They made no resistance but stated that
had a large crowd come to arrest them that the
result might have been different. They were
bound over in the sum of $1500 each, and some
12 or 15 of thier friends offered to go their
bonds, but Sheriff Lockhart could not find their
names on the tax roll, hence the Hunters are
still in limbo. Under the present administration
a bondsman’s qualification will be established
from the tax roll, and it will not be so easy for
some people to give a bond.
