Heavy Revolver in Hands Of Mrs
Williams of East Mill Creek
Creates Trouble,
! AGED DANE BADLY BEATEN.
Mr.. Sunderland Comes to Salt Lake
Aud Hunts Up the Sheriff
Today

A heavy revolver In the hands OF Mrs.
Williams a mulatto woman residing at
East Mil Creek, was responsible yester-
day afternoon for stirring incidents In
the vicinity named. Not content with
beating an aged Dane named Supder-
land over the head with the butt OF the
weapon. the enraged woman wound mp
the proceedings by emptying the revolt
yer In the direction of the object OF her
wrath. Fortunately her aim was bad
and Sunderland escaped the bullets IN
tended for hlmt ONE unusual thing
about the incident was that none OF the
witnesses Of the assault were hit and
both Mrs A. A. Hovey and Mrs, SIM
derland who saw the affair escaped
scatheless. PSI
The Williams woman is apparently
the terror Of East Mil Creek and nu-
merous residents are said TO live I'm fear
OF her and her Oft repeated threats IN
which her big revolver Invariably plays
part.
Yesterdays trouble arose from some
litigation over n strip OF land which
was commenced some years ago. II
appears that Mr.. Sunderland was drly-
ing along on bis moving machine prior
to cutting hay on his own land En-
route to his destination he came to the
strip OF land In debate and proceeded to
let down the bars preparatory to driY-
ing through the gateway when Mrs.
Williams appeared on the scene armed
with big gun
From words to blows was but mat
ter Of n few minutes and Mrs. Williams
hit the old man repeatedly over the
head with the revolver inGlctlng some
ugly scalp wounds during the process.
Nothing daunted, however the old
Dane mounted his seat again and with
the blood streaming down his face pro-
ceeded TO drive through the gateway.
AZ this Iuncture the colorod woman
commenced firing Two bullets whis-
tied close 10 the head Of MIR. Sunder-
land and then the hammer fell harm
lcssly on the third cartridge cap. Moth
ing daunted the woman again pulled the
trigger nj the same time exclaimlng
that she would kill both Sunderland
and his team The next time the gun
went of and she continued 10 pump
lead In the direction of the object OF
her wrath until the weapon was emp
tied
Later Sunderland washed his face,
tied UP his wounds and came into Salt
Lake to report the matter. He failed TO
locate the sheriff or the prosecuting Mt
torney so he returned home last night.
lie came into the city again this morn
ing with better success. with the result
that Sheriff Emery left for the scene
this afternoon TO investigate the story
Upon his report win rest the action OF
