Description
After breaking out of a California jail for shooting a sheep-herder, Bear Howard came to Arizona territory - Oak Creek Canyon. He lived near his daughter and son-in-law, the Steven Purtymuns, for years before being caught and returned to jail. The story is he was very elderly and his jailers let him escape to return to his home.
