was next interviewed. He was 5 feet 9¾ inches in height, rather slight,
with regular features, black straight hair, stubby moustache, black beard
of short growth. His hair is not dyed, and is, therefore not a James, for
they are light complexioned. Hands rather coarse and covered with black
hair. He was shot, with a heavy ball, between the second and third ribs,
and one inch to the left of the breast bone. He had also had a buckshot
wound in the right arm, five inches from the point of the shoulder and
another five inches from the right hip, striking behind.
This man has been identified as Charley Pitts, and recognized by Mr.
Bunker as the man who shot him through the arm.
The writer next found the boy who brought in the news to Madelia of the
robbers being in the neighborhood.
