DAYS RECALLED AS
 HERO DIES
CONTRERAS' DEATH REVIVES THE CELEBRATED IN DI AN FIGHT THAT GAVE SKULL VALLEY NAME.

The death at Wickenburg last week of Angel Contreras recalls one of the most famous Apache Indian fights to occur in this section of Ari- zona in the arly eos by which slaught- CT Skull valley derived its name.
 Contreras also is linked to that memorable event and figures a con spicuously as the American who van- quished the red man in the furious combat, the memory of which will endure for time. The deceased, it was learned yesterday was with a party of eleven of his countrymen in placer mine accommodating of the above re- zion long before habitation existed and by way of a coincidence when the Freeman freight train of six wag- ons was attacked a short distance be- low what is now the Laswell ranch the Mexican pilgrims then in camp above that point about two miles heard the lively fusillade of firearms and mounting their horses rode at swift speed in the direction of the scene of the conflict Contreras was one of them, then young man un- der thirty years of age. The Ameri- cans when reinforced by the Mexicans turned the tide of the battle. and by appearing on the ground at an op- perfume time the lives of sixteen Americans and an immense amount Of general merchandise, livestock and other property were saved.
 The fight at one time was hand to hand in which the Americans and Mexicans were outnumbered six to one. The loss of Indians was fright ful and for years afterward the scat tered skulls of the Apaches bleach ing in the sun vividly recalled the fateful day, and never afterward was that region infested by the Apache.
 Contreras and companions contin
 ned to Prescott with Freeman, and
 were extended many cOurtesies as well as assistance by the civil and military residents, and later returned
 south to the Wickenburg country to placer mine, some settling in Weaver gulch at the base of Rich Hill. Con treras was the youngest of the Mex
 ican explorers, and he was the last to be summoned He had reached
 the age of over 80 years, and when stricken with infunenza was in fine mental and physical vigor. His de- ,o+oJ --;fa +o ,,Ii, c,,, "a ,,,ae ,,,o--;ad over half a century ago, also was called away a few days afterward from the same illness.
