Gunfight in Rosendal

November 10, 1921 paper carried a story of a gunfight in Rosendal Township north of Mose in which bullets had been freely exchanged between the gunmen and officers and men from Nelson County who were in pursuit.  After a chase and hunt lasting the rest of the day, Sheriff Nelson and the many men he had enlisted in the hunt, the men, five in number, were arrested between Hannaford and Revere at about eight o'clock in the evening and brought to the county jail here.  Three of the captured men were wounded as a result of the gun battle in Rosendal Township.  One being quite serious.  The following day officials from Devils Lake came and claimed custody of the bandits.  There is every reason to believe that the five men captured are the band of alleged safe-blowers which has been terrorizing North Dakota banks, post offices, etc.
