Stark County Farmer
Shot by Father.in.L

Dickinson, N. D., June 22.-Frons
Dolliver, IS, Stark county farmer re-
sid' :, 10 miles north of Richardton,
W shot and mortally wounded by
J ,ph Massey, IS, his father-in-law
during heated alteration over fami-
ly affairs at the Dolliyer farm Satur-
day morning. - With his heart, liver
and other vitals perforated with shot
from a 12-guage shotgun fired by
Massey, Dolliver was rushed to St.
Joseph's hospital in this city where
he died at 8 that evening.
Details Given
Altho suffering intense pain Dolli-
yer retained consciousness to the end
and in deposition given to county
officials gave the details of the quar-
rel leading up to the crime.
Massey, charged with first degree
murder was brought to Dickinson and
lodged in the county Jail.
In the deposition it was alleged that
Massey came to the Dolliver farm
early Saturday and after quarreling
with Dolliver over family affairs dur
ing which he accused his son-in-law
of cruelty and mistreatment of his
wife, Massey went into the house and
persuaded his daughter to leave with
him. As they were leaving Dolliver,
who was working about the yard,
came toward them and protested. 1t
was then that Massey is alleged to
have raised Delivers shotgun which
he had taken from the house and fired
deliberately, wounding Dolliver.
Stories Conform
Massey's story is practically the
same, save that he claims that Dolli-
yer came toward them threatening to
cut his head off with an ak and that
he was forced to shoot in self defense.
He maintains that Dolliver was a
quarrelsome man and expresses no
regret over the outcome of the quar-
rel.
Mrs. Dolliver condemns the attitude
of her husband and upholds her faith
er, saying that he was justified in
shooting.
At d post mortem held Saturday
night, it was found that shot, lodged
in the body, had penetrated almost
every vital point. The body was TAX
en- to Richardton Sunday morning for
burial.

floral offerings were received and the
funeral procession was one of the
largest ever seen in the city.

the only son o., in the family and was
in the third grade in Mckinley school

and the Johnny Jones Exposition for
the part they had taken in the affair.
The guests were shown thru the
beautiful park. They were especially
delighted with the zoo. Alex. Wilkie
had never before seen buffalo.
Ralph Cummings and others enjoyed
a plunge in the fine new swimming
pool recently completed in the park
which was turned over to the ex-
elusive use of the visitors. Refresh
ments were served at the pavilion and
at the bath house.
At 6:15, the guests were taken
about the city and out into the coun-
try for short distance, giving the
visitors chance to see some of the
wonderful rye, wheat and corn fields
and view of the city from Prospect
Point on the north hill. One car made
trip clear to Surrey.
The visitors showed keen interest
in our city and in the agricultural dis
tricts lying adjacent. Minot was
their only stop of consequence in
North Dakota, as they were schedul-
ed to spend the following day in the
Twin Cities. They had spent two days
in Glacier Park, and while the train
stopped for a short time in Williston,
they were given a ride about that
wide awake little city. They had
been given wonderful entertainment
at Portland, Ore, and had been re-
ceived with splendid welcomes all
along the way from Los Angeles,
where they attended the Rotary In
ternational convention, but they de-
clared that the Minot style of enter
tanning was different from that Of any
other city they had visited.
"We have learned much from you
North Dakotans, from your way of
entertaining" visitor remarked.
Our friends from the east were en-
tirely familiar with the political sit
uation in North Dakota and are
watching with rapt interest the out
come of the coming primary election.
They regard Senator McCumber very
highly. They were disappointed in
not meeting Gov. r. A. Nestos, who
is a member of the Minot Rotary club.
They left singing the praises of North
Dakota, which to them proved to be
most interesting and delightful
land. Never has Minot entertained a
more distinguished lot Of visitors,
whose short sojourn here was char
acterized by their wholesome friend
liness.

Jack had laughed at his moth

of himself, so sure of Helen. He
did not care much for her mother,
it was true. But they would have
their own rooms, and so would
not be thrown together very much
save at meal time. And when he
got established, why they would
have a little flat by themselves.
"Try to be sensible, Jack, and
