A large portion of the army of occupation still being in the State it was thought expedient by those in authority that companies of r a n caval y or infantry should be st tioned at strategic poi ts . In accord ance with this policy a company of cavalry commanded by Captain 1 86 of i Graves was quartered in 5 in the main street Starkv lle , the i county seat of Okt bb eha county .

The only way of relief from the intolerable situation was found in the fact that with Graves and his soldiers the Ji ngle of the guinea in the hand of the white man was found to be a most effi caciou s salve for the hurt that honor feels . Graves was so absolutely venal that like the Romans in the time of Jugurtha he would have sold himself if he could have found a purchaser . The first authenticated case of rape by a negro on a white woman i k tibb eha i n O county occurred while Graves held sway in Starkv lle .

  • Terry Inman Bio.310
    The Known Cravfishes of Arizona: A Summarv Renort Prepared By Terry Inman Bio.310 For Dr. Paul C. Marsh ASU Center for Environmental Studies Introduction The crayfishes ofNorth America display greater diversity in terms of species than any other part ofthe world. Some 338 recognizedtaxa (308 species and 30 subspecies) exist within the United States and Canada (Taylor, C.A. et d,. 1996). At least one species of crayfish is native to every state in the contiguous United States (Hobbs, H.H. Jr. l9S9) except Arizona which claims no species of its own. Until recently Arizona had (from our earliest records) remained void ofthis diverse group of invertebrates. However, sometime within the last 30 years crayfishes have begun to show up in Arizona waters. Some have been intentionally stocked by the Arizona Game and Fish department (AZGFD stocking records l93l - l99l) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (verbal - MarstU P.C.) as forage for game fish such as trout and large mouth bass. Although the extent ofthe introductions by the USFWS in not known, the AZGFD has reported three sites of introduction (all lakes), one inl97l, and two in 1991. other sources of crayfish introduction have probably been a result of bait bucket introductions by sport fishermen. Although no direct evidence ofthis is known it is perhaps the most reasonable explanation for their wide spread existence. Despite crayfishes having become common fauna in many Arizona waters they have managed to attract little attention from any Federal, Statg or scientific community. The kinds, distribution, and abundance of Arizona's crayfish is unknown, they have not yet been inventoried, or studied.
