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.
