The man Campbell, superintendent of the company’s property, of whom mention is made above, become afraid of the rustlers and kept an armed guard around his house at night while the writer was on town. On two or three occasions the miners had been organized to come into town at night and clean the rustlers up, but when the critical moment came, Camp- bell went back on the plan and stopped it. At one time the miners had left the Coronado mine and were half way to town, when they were turned back by Campbell’s orders. The killing of Kid Lewis and the capture of Heath and his gang scattered the rustlers. Big Dave was killed somewhere in Arizona, and several others run out of the country. Shoot-em-up Dick was killed on the Rio Grande for horse stealing. Ike Clan- ton was shot some time afterwards by an officer on Eagle Creek, Cherokee Kid, Garcia and several others are in the Yuma pen, and Pilar, as hard a wretch as ever drew the breath of life, was hanged by Andy Laird in the court house yard in this city. It will be remembered by the Enterprise readers that Pilar kidnaped a Mexican girl on the Mimbres and that Thomas Hall, an old timer and as brave a man as ever walked, a deputy sheriff under Jim Woods, was looking for him. Hall fell in with him on the road at night coming from Pinos Altos. Whether Hall recognized the man or not never will be known.
