A Noted Cattle Thief Shot
New Orleans, March 16: The Times-Democrat’s Little Rock special reports the running down and killing of FRANK STRONG, a noted cattle thief, by a posse which traced him to a deserted cabin on Wild Horse Creek, Chickasaw Nation, where he was shot to death. He fought his pursuers to the last. A reward of $1500 had been offered for his capture. He had operated successfully in western Arkansas and the Indian Territory for years, stealing herds of cattle from ranchmen, driving them into Texas and disposing of them.
