--Charles (Pretty Boy) Floyd,
one of the most notorious and
cold-blooded killers of modern
times, was executed late today
by federal agents.
He died, as did John Dillinger,
as a result of relentless search
by operatives of the United
States Department of Justice,
who shot to kill as soon as they
saw the outlaw.
With 14 bullet holes In his
back and sides, Floyd lay on a
slab In a funeral parlor tonight
while hundreds of townspeople,
many of whom had served In
posses which searched th© woods
for him for two days, struggled
to view the body.
With the killing of Floyd,
Melvin Purvis, ace Department
of Jnstiee manhunter who
brought down Dillinger in Chica
go, virtually ended his search for
the perpetrators of the union
station massacre in Kansas City.
Was "Trigger Man"
Floyd, the “trigger man.’’ lay
dead. His pal and confederate at
Kansas City, Adams Richetti,
was guarded in a cell at Wells-
ville. Ohio, He was caught in a
police trap out of which he was
unable to shoot his way Satur
day.
Pretty Boy's freedom was
short-lived. He eluded searchers
for 4 8 hours, but this morning
Purvis and his men got a tip that
he was iii the vicinity of the farm
of -Mrs. Ellen Conkle. seven miles
north of here.
Tlioy searched every inch of
surroiimling woodland, were
enming back to tlie farm house
when they saw Floyd about to
enter an automobile with Stuart
Dukes, brother of Mrs. Conkle,
and his wife.
Always ingratiating. Floyd
without a show of force, had per
suaded Dykes to drive him to
ward Youngstown, and a few
minutes later would have been
out of immediate danger.
Recognizivi By Purvis
Purvis recognized the bandit
immediately, and with his men
started running toward the auto
mobile. Pretty Boy, realizing he
was trapped, forced Dykes to
drive llie automobile behind a
corn crib.
Machine guns and revolvers
mi the “ready,” the officers ad-
vjaiieed on 4he little building.
Floyd attempted to flee toward
the woods. He had an automatic
pistol in one hand, but he didn't
pause to use it.
