From the Aug. 5, 1920 News Record
Sheriff Roy Hardy returned home Sunday evening from Buffalo Gap, S.D., where he went in response to a telegram announcing that the Jack Hunter cattle had been located. Roy says the entire 41 head were found, the brand FLA (open A) had been neatly worked over to ELN, but no owner of such a brand could be found or heard of and that Jack was taking the cattle back home. The next chapter of the story has not been written, but the Record hopes that it soon will be and the guilty parties brought speedily before the court of justice.
