SHOOTING AFFAIR.
MANTER, CAss Co., MIMI, !
Conf II 1921 {

Sept. ii, 1881.
Your humble servant was called
upon this afternoon to witness the
inquest holden over the body of Chas.
Wilkins, who was shot dead last
night, at about half past seven clock,
by his brother-in.law, Mr.. VIM.
King, of this town. The facts in de-
tail are substantially as follows:
On Wednesday morning of last
week, Chas. wilkins, in company
with Col. Martin, started for Wade
ma, and just before wilkins left
home, he requested his wife to let
him have some money, that he might
purchase team while at Wadena.
This, in part, she refused to do, tell
ing him that he had made bad use of
four hundred dollars which she had
let him have since their marriage.
At this he became enraged, and told
her to stay at home and see to things,
and on his return he would kill her
and put 4 rope around her body and
drag it into the bushes, and no one
would ever find it out. Shortly after
he had left for Wadena, she picked
up her things and went TO her broth
er, Mr.. King. a distance of one-half
mile, told him of the threats her
husband had made before leaving
home that morning, and that she
wished to stop with him for protec-
ton, as she was afraid her husband
would kill her on his return. 10 this
Mr.. King gave his consent, and four
days elapsed, and last night at 7
O'Clock, Wilkins returned, found his
house vacant, and also a letter which
she left, informing him that she was
not going to live with him any longer.
He then proceeded to Mr.. Kings, and
when within 40 rods Of there, his
wife saw him coming and told her
brother to watch out or he would kill
him, as he was of very violent dis
position and of great physical power.
Mr.. King told her that he would take
his revolver, stand in the door, and
try and scare him away. When
Wilkins got to the door, King asked
him what he wanted. He said he
wanted to 60 in. King told him to
stand back, but this he would not do,
and at the same time drew a knife,
and told King that one or the other
must die, at the same time making a
pass at King, who in self-defense
fired Ave shots at him, the last one
taking effect and killing him almost
instantly. The fatal shot struck him
in the center of the brest, passing
as is supposed, in downward direc
ton. It is case of self-defense, anC

INMAN.

We are now having kind of a dry
spell of weather. It has not rained
for three days, but l tell you it has
fixed tl1o ground~ 11ico for ploughing,
and many of our farmers are improv-
ing those nice cool days by doing all
the ploughing they can. They begin
to learn that early ploughed land is
that which gives the best crops.
Stacking, believe, is all done, though
some of the grain was damaged a
little by the wet. We are ready now
to thresh, and if any good thresher
is in want of Il good job, he can find it
right here
There seems to be quite q demand
for our land, as quite number of
pieces have been bought lately. Mr..
G. F. Mason has bought 80 acres on
section q; Il fine piece of land. Fred
Hursh bought 120 acres on section "a;
another good piece. Mr.. John Cole.
man, from Long Lake, near Mime.
apolis, bought l20 acres on section 8,
and l. NJ. Hursh 80 acres on the same
section. Mr.. Coleman intends to buy
some more land and settle with us.
We learn that Elder Inman is very
sick, but have not been able to learn
what his sickness is. Mr.. A. HOugh
is Also quite sick. Quite a number OF
children are sick, and it seems to be
very sickly time. This cold rainy
weather is very unhealthy.
Haying is progressing very slowly
but we are in hopes to do better as
soon as the weather settles.
