im, others that they
never heard of such a man, had not even heard the name.

The citizens soon came crowding around in disagreeable numbers. I
saw I must resort to strategy, or I and my friends were in
danger; so in order to disperse the crowd, I took out my book and
pencil and took down the names of those around me. I then
summoned them to assist me in finding and arresting Lee. They
each and all had some excuse, but I refused to excuse any of them
and ordered them to go and get their arms and come back and aid
me. This worked well, for in less than five minutes there was not
a Mormon to be seen on the streets of Panguitch. About this time
I rode near Thomas Winn, when he said:

"I believe I have Lee spotted. I asked a little boy where Lee's
wife lived, and he showed me the house."

This was something to work on. I rode around to the house that
Winn pointed out to me. As I turned the street corner I saw a
woman looking into a log pen, and when she saw me she turned back

"John D. Lee is my father, sir," said he.

At that I told him it made no difference to me if he was his
grandmother, that I was going to search the house and wanted him
with me. He said he was going down to the threshing machine to
see his brother Al, and started off. I drew my revolver and told
him to stop. He walked right along, looking back over his
shoulder at me all the time. I then spurred my horse and went in
front of him. He said:

"You can shoot and be hanged. I am not heeled, but I am going
down to see my brother Al."

While we were talking, Alma Lee came up and asked what was up.
Sam said:

"This is the officer come to arrest father."

"Is that all! I thought there was a dog fight."

He then took Sam one side and talked to him for a time. Sam soon
came back and said he was ready to go wi
