They had been captured by a clever flank movement from among their demoralized partisans. Slankard spoke good Spanish and made himself quite plain. Point­ ing to the swinging bodies, he warned the shrinking men that such would be their fate if another incendiary word were to.cross their lips. They were then released; • and the Mexican insurrection was a thing of the past. The vigilantes then turned their efforts towards cleansing the town of its undesirable element. Everyone suspected of being a rough or a crook was given a canteen and a warning. Departure was forthwith, many finding an appro­ priate field of operations in the newly-opened camp of Tombstone. For years thereafter Phrenix was as quiet a town as one could find in staid New England. This gratifying result was directly due to the vigilantes. That they accomplished a work of good is incontestable. They presented the law a peacful city and , neighborhood, and peaceful has it remained. The first ynching in Phamix occurred July 3, 1873, when Mariano Tisnado was hanged on a cross beam of the Monihan corral. On the face of things it • would appear that he had been hanged for stealing a widow's cow, but there seems little doubt that he was guilty also of the murder of B. F. Griffin, a highly­ respected pioneer who had lived south of the village. In 1877 was the execution of another popular decree in the hanging of a soldier who had shot Lew Bailey . through the window of a hall in which the better element of the population had met to dance. This hall was the old stage station on the east side of Center Street, half a block north of Washington. The lynching was on a cottonwood on the site of the present waterworks. Bailey later died of his wounds. • • PEARL HART, ARIZONA'S FEMALE BA~DlT GLOBE'S .MOST EXCITING EPISODE On August 23, 1882, Frank Porter, packer on the mail route across the Pinal Mountains, dashed wildly into Globe, shouting that the Apaches had taken in the mail train and that the express messenger, Andy Hall, was dead. The • • . '. mules of the pack train were found dead on the trail. The mai.l, untouched, • still was strapped to the back of one, but the express box, with $10,000 in gold, intended for the Mack Morris payroll, was gone. Two sets of tracks showed that w.hite men had done the deed, rather than Indians, and other footprints showed that Andy Hall had followed the robbers, in the line of his duty. Across a hill, dying, was found Dr. Vail of Globe, who, with his last breath, told what he could of two rObUers, whom he had accidentally come across as they were dividing the gold. Further on the trail, miles away, at dusk, was found the body of Andy Hall, who, ambushed, had fought to the end, his body stiffening in a stunted shrub in which he had crouched, the last cartridge unfired in a magnificent revolver that had been presented him by the Wells-Fargo Company for faithful service.

    THE FACES OF POST 41 South Phoenix Latinos fight for their country abroad, battle for their civil rights at home Part I: Setting the stage By Charles H. Sanderson Setting the Stage 1 The Faces of Post 41: Setting the stage Anglo arrival “Any city however small, is in fact divided into two, one the city of the poor, the other of the rich. These are at war with one another.” – Plato, Greek philosopher othing begins out of a vacuum in society. Events build slowly into the Nnext defining moment. The formation of American Legion Post 41 is no different. Its existence, its purpose and its fight against segregation; these all existed because of the early storyline that formed the U.S. territory of Arizona, and later, the state. In 1861, a majority of Anglo settlers to reach the region were military men sent to protect mining interests against Apache raiding parties.1 Mexican families were also migrating north into the central valleys of Arizona from Tucson and northern Sonora throughout the 1850s and 1860s to set up farms and cattle ranches.2 Then, almost as soon as it had been obtained by the U.S., the region was left to fend for itself. As the Civil War detonated in April 1861, troops began to pull to the east for battle, under orders from President Abraham Lincoln. Apache Indians increased their attacks on vulnerable new settlements, ranches and mining operations across the upper Sonoran Desert, momentarily spurred in the belief they had caused the military departure.3 Arizona was then part of New Mexico, but too isolated to depend on its cities for protection.

Johnny Walker – John W. Walker, you understand, then federal court reporter and fresh from Chicago – and I were just about putting the finishing touches to a roast mallard duck supper at the old Kreuder Café on Allen Street when Kreuder met one of his customers at the cashier’s counter and laid him cold with an uppercut that would have at that time done credit to even hard hitting bog Fitzsimmons. There were no frills to the affair. Kreuder just waited until his man came down the aisle, gave one glance at the check he handed to the cashier, and then applied a clenched fist to the point of his customer’s jaw. All was over but the shouting. “The proceedings struck me as not only being odd but as being carried out in a rather cold-blooded, businesslike manner. Being just from New York City, one might think that such an occurrence would have little effect on me. But I had never seen anything in which Kreuder laid low the man which 5 his establishment had just feasted. “Oh, yes! I did forget to tell you why Kreuder took a punch at his customer. It was this way. “I supposed the customer got some peculiar notion that a 50 per cent discount should be made on all T-bone steak dinners which he ate at Kreuder’s for every time a check for 50 cents was handed to him, he erased the ‘0,’ put a ‘2’ in front of the ‘5’ and then put the ‘cents’ mark – ‘c’ – after the ‘25.’ It seemed that the cashier became suspicious, told Kreuder CORNER OF 5TH & ALLEN STREETS about it, and according to the customs of old Tombstone of a quarter-century ago, the customer ‘had it coming to him.’ Forthwith Kreuder was duly bound to see that ‘it’ arrived in true western style.
