“According to the information received by the Assiniboia police chief, he is inclined to place some credence to the wierd tale told to him by a man who as a small boy, claims to have been an eye witness to the brutal murder. If his story is true, the bones of the victim now lie under a pile of stones at some point 14 miles east of Minot.”
The Ward County Independent, November 14, 1940
