This is a writ dated August 12, 1895 and is in regards to Bill Dolan and his gang, also known the Wild Bunch. The gang included Dan Clifton, also known as Dynamite Dick or Dynamite Dan. Now, this is not the Wild Bunch of Butch Cassidy fame. His group was located in Wyoming. This gang was found in Osage County, Oklahoma Indian Territory. They were being pursued, even though for what crime is not spelled out in the writ, for possible train or bank robbery charges. According to the document, the pursuers were paid $3 per day for four days. They also turned in their mileage, which amounted to 85. Document is very readable (Except for some of the names) and in nice condition, being matted and framed. Please see photos for more details. [ Osage County Indian Territory
