Williams news., 1921-04-15


 automobile for the Grant, when the party had proceeded about half the distance, they were met by a messenger who, con- veyed the joyful news that Mrs. Perrin had been found.
 In relating her experiences, Mrs. Perrin said that when she reached the deserted cabin, she concluded to return to "The Oaks And Willows" However when it came to determining which one of the numerous trails she should take, that rad fate from the cabin, she was perplexed, but finally selected one that proved to be the wrong one. It led her into a dense undergrowth, and upon emerg- ing from it, she realized she was lost. ''I then determined", said she, ''to reach Mount Hope-the highest landmark on the Grant and from there try to get my bearings. l walk ed, and walked, and walked, until I realized it was getting dark. Then I screamed, but after screaming for a time 1 saw it would do no good. Then I started to build a fire with some matches l had obtained at the cabin, but it would not burn, and T gave up the at- tempt. Continuing my walking late at night I found myself at the foot of Mount Hope, but 1t was so dark I could not see any thing. I took down my hair and wrapped it around my shoulders to keep warm, for l had nothing in the way of a wrap with me except a light sweater. A little later I fdand a deep ravine in which there was plenty of wood, and I went down into it and succeeded, in lighting a good fire. Late in the night I could see the reflection of fires. I knew by this that they were searching for me, but I was so tired I could not make an attempt to reach them. Besides, I thought that l had better save my strength until dawn. When it began to get light, I made my way part ly up Mount Hope, and when about half way up I saw a gate l knew the gate must be at some place of habitation, and 1 started down the mountain in the direction of the gate. I walked, and I walked, and I walked, until I came to a wire fence. I followed this fence and came to the gate I had ob- served on the mountain. It was now about noon, and when I went through the gate I saw a tent Cottonwood Camp which l entered and threw myself on a bed and slept until Lilo found me, about 4 o'clock Monday af- ternOOn."
 After MT. Lavender had start ed to Seligman, MT. Perrin went to the Cottonwood pasture to obtain a fresh horse. Obtain ing the horse, he started for the tent to get 8 bite to eat, and when he had thrown the tent flap back to enter, imagine his joyful surprise to find his wife sound asleep on the bedi
 Mrs. Perrin's shoes were worn to a frazzle, and her skirt was badly burned by having slept-or attempted to sleep too near the, fire. However, aside from the natural fatigue from her narrowing experience which detained her in bed at the Cottonwood cow-camp for several days, she was alright.
 The welcome news of Mrs. Perrin's rescue was immediate ly sent to Williams, and there was great rejoicing among her many friends. No young wo- mana comparative stranger ever came into the community and succeeded in making more true, genuine friends than has Betty Perrin in the short space of time she has resided here. Her sensible actions in such trying ordeal; her poise of mind, well worthy of one much older than herself, and her courage, have all been the subject of much compliment tary comment during the past week.
