They commandeered a buckboard and took McMurray to the police station where he died in the guardroom. (Don't ask me why they took him to the police station.)

Five officers rushed the apartment and overpowered the shooter. He still had two bullets in his gun. His wife lay on the kitchen floor - shot to death.

The police arrested Harry Boles - the same man that Officer McMurray had rescued a few years earlier.
