FRANK COLK'HDKATM.
The O'Neil Frontier bas the fol
lowing description of the shooting o
Frank (’ole. taken from the Ftuar
Leader
“Last (Thursday) evening i
tragedy was enacted about thre«
miles west of town. The victim is t
young man about twentj-three year*
of age. He is said to be Frank Cole
of Greeley (Jenter. The parties re
sponsible for his death composed a
party of six farmers from Lutes,
Keya Paha county. Their names
are: Ralph Lewis, Ins son Henry,
Kvlwsrd Ih-umar, Arthur Newman,
Win. Wiley and Win, McAllister;
Kdward Robinson, of Rock county,
joined the party at the Niobrara
river.
Thursday morning about seven
j’cloek Harry Lewis discovered that
his tiuddlc had been stolen during
:he night. Footsteps and marks
where the cinches had dragged in
he sand were traced to where there
were tracks of a buggy drawn by
imull footed mules. The trail wus
follow for four miles to the residence
if Arthur Newman where another
laddie wus taken. A posse was or
ganized and took up the trail. It
was followed to llaogan s bridge.
Host of thp way It had avoided the
oad. Kdward Robinson who lives
bis side of the bridge about a mile
■aw the team pass his plate at!»;30
i. in. lie joined the searchers
I'he trail from his place was through
he prairie till about three miles west
A town where it struck the road.
About sundown the pursuiag part
es found the alleged rustlers in
amp on the south side of the snow
enac about three miles west of town.
Cbey proved to be two young men
lamed Everett Robinson and Frank
L'ole. Perhaps out of fear of being
inched, knowing the method •fideal
ing out justice iu the neighborhood
where they stole their plunder (Rob
inson formerly lived there) they
4rabbed their guns and tied. Young
Lewis and Wm. McAllister pursued
them on foot. On the south bank of
the Elkhorn Cole was shot. Lewis
and McAllister mounted their horses
and captured Robinson about one
half mile further on.
Ralph Lewis came to town and gavd
notice of what was done. Coroner
Kline wus wiied. He came on the
noon train today (Friday.)
The coroner issued a venire lor
six jurymen and placed it in the
hands of Constable Allman for ser
vice.
They repaired to the scene of the
tragedy where they were swornin by
the coroner.
On examination the boy revealed
the fact that the victim was shot
from the rear, the ball entering the
left shoulder blade six inr-hoa il.nvu
tbe small ot tbe back, two and one
half inches from tbe center of the
spinal column, ranging upward, com
ing out on the rignt breast.
The verdict of the coroners jury
was that Frank Cole came to his
death ou the 22nd day of April. ]8«7
from a shot from a gnn in the hands
of oue of the following named part
ies; Ralph Lewis, II. I). Lewis,
Win. Wiley, Wm. McAllister, A.
Newman. Kd. Robinson, and K.
Demmar, with the intent todobodily
harm.
The evidence brought out at the
coroner s in<|uest was so strong and
of sueh a nature ae to make it appear
that '.he parties connected with tbe
homicide were guilty of willful man
slaughter. In accordance with the
verdict of the jury, the coroner issu
ed warruiits for the accuseri pur tie*
ordering them to lie taken lietore
some magistrate to lie dealt with ac
cording to law,
