WHAT'S $4,000 DAMAGE SUIT
IN CAR0LINE'S YOUNG LIFE?
ASKS THE kEMMERER CAMERA

Caroline Lockhart, authoress and
editor of the Cody Enterprise, is de-
PENDANT in a $4,000 damage suit
brought in district court by the
county attorney of Park county. The
action is the result of alleged sland-
erous remarks printed in Miss Lock
harris now nationally known weekly,
and it is his determination to again
make the woman pay"
1t seems this trouble has been brew
ing for a long time. 1t nearly came
to a head several weeks ago., when
Miss Lockhart reported a story con
corning the attorney, in which she
stated he collected fees from one eli
ent, by removing an important bath
room fixture and carrying it from
the latter's home.
The elimination, however, came
when Miss Lockhart gave her opinion
through the columns of her paper, of
the killing of "Scotty" Shirron and
the shooting of Joe Carey, alleged
run runners, the apprehension of
whom was said to be directed by the
Park county attorney.
Miss Lockhart does not seem to be
, 1923-08-08

in the least worried over the outcome
of the suit, and in her characteristic
manner, invites him to Ego his best"
Whoever has not heard of Caroline
Lockhart during their visit in Yellow
stone park via Cody way or by their
attendance at the Cody Stampede, of
which she is president, has certainly
read one or more of her books, several
of which have been among the "six
best sellers" Taking people from ac-
tual life for characters in her books,
she has undergone many hardships
and suffered many privations in Sc
curing atmosphere for her stories
the most noteworthy, perhaps, being
"The Fighting Shepherdess." Others
from her pen include, "Me, Smith,"
"The Man from the Bitter Roots"
"The Lady Doc" and "The Dude
Wrangler." For a long time she was
staff writer on the Denver Post.
Caroline Lockhart most always
wins an argument, whether verbal or
through the columns of her paper,
and the odds should be placed on her
in the coming battle.-Kemmerer
