It was this knowlege ‘that sent him off, that he was on the right track. It.is the prevailing belief that when Moore tells. the. story of: bis wanderings, if his lips are ever unsealed, it will be found that ‘thé story. told to the newspapers by the people who said they saw him heading along the McCourtney road below Grass Valley on the Monday and Tuesday after the killing, ‘was trae. ‘The officers did not seem to attach much importance to'it at the time, although one of the men— Taunt—had been in jail with Moore, knew. bim iutimately and told . e straight and consistent tale.» =~
Moore’s dog was no doubt seen by old Spanish Joe out. on Little Deer Oreek, just as Joe said, having been given the slip by his master and wandered back to his old haunts. The dog was seen last Weduesday and on several . other occasions by George Marchie and [= other-residents of that part of the township.
