Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I whakawakia a Nash i te tau 1913. I tahaetia e ia me tana hoa, a Nollie "Humpy" Wortman, tata ki te $1,000 mai i tētahi toa i Sapulpa, Oklahoma. I a rātau e mawhiti ana, i whakaaro a Nash kia huna e rātau te whakaaturanga. I a Wortman e haere ana ki te tanu i te moni, ka werohia ia e Nash ki muri. I mauheretia ia i nga haora i muri mai, a, i whakawhiwhia ki te whare herehere o Oklahoma State Penitentiary. I te Poutu-te-rangi 28, 1918, i whakaitihia te whiu a Nash ki te tekau tau i muri i tana whakaponotanga ki te kaitiaki o te whare herehere e hiahia ana ia ki te uru atu ki te ope taua me te whawhai i te Pakanga Tuatahi o te Ao. I hainatia e Nash tana kaari rehitatanga hoia i te Pipiri 12, 1918, ka tukuna i te Akuhata 16, 1918. I kite a Nash i te mahi i
Belleau Wood, France, i mua i te mutunga o te pakanga. (Kua mutu te whawhai i Belleau Wood i te Pipiri, 1918, ka mutu te pakanga i te Noema 11 o taua tau).
