is also putting in a number of

If such plan is put into effect ii
would prove detrimental to the
interests of the whole county and
ever citizen in it. 1t behooves
every town iii the county to act
quickly in this matter by petition

duce our mail service, and thus

the hands of one John Pettigrew.
Pettigrew waived a preliminary
examination and was at once
brought to Challis by Dep1ty
Sheriff Boone and Chas. Heney
and lodged in Jail, but was taken
back last Sunday by Sheriff E. G.
Chamberlain and County Attorn-
ey L. H. Johnston, for said ex-
animation.
This is the first criminal mat
ter brought into the Courts of
Custer county for some time. We
are not acquainted with either
party in this sad affair. Some
seem to think that Pettigrew was
justified in the killing, but 9th
ers are of the opinion that there
was not just provocation. As to
the merits of the case, we do not
care to discuss it, as it is a mat
ter for the Courts to decide-not
for the press to render decision.

HUNT. HENDERSON KILLED

On Sunday, the Goth inst, at 3
o'clock p. M. A. K. Henderson,
or, more commonly known as
Hunt Henderson, was shot and
almost instantly killed II miles
from the new railroad town of
Mackay, in Custer county, by
John N. Pettigrew.
The killing was over the result
of horse trade-a quarrel en-
sued and harsh words were in
dulged in. Pettigrew claims
that Henderson drew an open
knife and made for him and
threatened to kill him. Petit
grew got his 1870 rifle that was
close by, shot and killed Hender-
sou, the bullet taking effect in
the groin. Pettigrew came in
town at once and surrendered to
the officers.
Both parties were newcomers
on Lost river. Henderson was
from Richmond, Utah. Petit
grew is a married man, and his
wife is the only witness. Petit
grew has been running bakery
at Houston for a short time.
A Coroner's inquest was held.
and after examination, the jury
found that Hunt" Henderson

ASSESSOR SELECTS a DEPUTY.

Last Thursday evening, Oct.
oath, 1901, at 8 o'clock, occurred
the happy marriage of Mr.. John
Johnson, Assessor and Collector
of Custer county, to Miss Mary
Katherine Wallace. of New Or
leans, La, but for the past year
a resident of this city.
The wedding took place at
Challis in the Editorial rooms of
THE SILVER MESSENGER Office.
Miss Mabel Jose was bridesmaid
and the editor of the MESSENGER
acted in the capacity of .'best
man." Judge j. G. Finnell per
formed the sacled rites. 1t was
plain and simple affair, with no
elaborate or mock aristocray and
was very quiet, indeed. Outside
of the bride and groom and the
two witnesses and the Judge,
Miss Maude Jose was the only
person present on this occasion.
La fact it was surprise to near
ly all, and we were greatly sur
prised when learning of the event
at o'clock on the afternoon
prior to the wedding taking
place, and at that time we were
so ignorant of the facts that we
inquired of Mr.. johnson who was
to be the fortunate lady. At 8
p. N. all the parties having ar
rived; the Office having been
swept (which is against the old
established rule of printing Off
ces); the eprinters' towel was hung
on the back porch for fear it
might fall and break; the ex-
changes and manuscript having
been piled in one corner, we
stopped the Gordon press and
put on our coat, and in few
moments the Judge in a few well
selected words pronounced them
man and wife.
The bride is a very estimable
young lady, and has made a host
of friends during her residence
in Challis. She is also an &C
complished lady.
The groom in question, who
has been so fortunate to select
this refined young lady for a life
partner, is a very worthy and
industrious gentleman, and has
made one of the best Assessors
Custer county has ever had.
The MESSENGER, with theil
many friends, joins in its hearty
congratulations and wishes the
newly welded couple Bon Voyage
