only one who could use a knife - this story is on my web page, Walter got a
divorce ( have those papers no info useful) just before he was ( killed or died)
we dont know where - I suspect the Modocs did him in after he went looking for

the age that if she died as an old lady - she could * have* lived to 1920, she
was married to Rowe 1879. There is no mention of her death in any Oregon archive
I can find unless I missed some thing.</font></div>
