But now the question is, what would be done if a hold-up occurred in North San Juan, a burglary at Bear River, a shooting at Englebright, and the Nevada City officer was trying toapprehend bank robbers, all in the same night? Improbable, but not entirely impossible! Should the people in difficulty ask the criminals to wait until the deputies who are patrolling in some other part of the County can be summoned to their aid?
