( 25 ) Killed By Indians To the Editor of the Enterprise : A young man by name of Hail Williams was killed by Indians on the 15th inst. He was in the employ of Joe Rice and left the ranch on the morning of the 15th, afoot, at break of day, to search for horses. Not returning as ex- pected, in the afternoon, Mr. Rice came to Hachita and reported the missing man. On the morning of the 16th, Mr. Rice, with a party of men in search of the body, found it about three miles from the ranch, with two bullet holes through the heart. Dick Tyler, of the Copper Dick mining claim, came into Hachita and reported the finding of the body, and ordered a coffin, which was completed at 2 o’clock P. M. E. W. Parsons, H. E. Jackson and myself, with the coffin, went to the scene of the murder and found the body decomposed and four men in charge. About 5 o’clock the body arrived at Hachita, a grave was prepared and many friends followed Hall Williams to his last resting place. — E. J. Fender. A Sad Death
