Enderly, a merchant at Harrisburg. We do not know the nature of their trouble but it became acute. One day Jim was in Enderly's store at Harrisburg, and was leaning upon the show case, when a friend came in and said, "Jim, you ready to go home?" Walters straightened up, and as he did so his elbow went through the glass with a crash. Enderly, a nervous man under any circumstances, grabbed a shotgun and fired with fatal effect. He testified that Jim had threatened him and he thought Walters was pulling his gun. The case never went beyond the justice court. Enderly died two years later of softening of the brain, probably accentuated by this tragedy.

The west end of the county was settling fast. Here we found the Hamptons, the Warners, the MisKimmons, the Noyes, A. B. Hull, T. W. Rockafield, the Spears, and the Spahr family, the Dunns, the Cards, and McComseys, in the Hull neighborhood ; and the Riders a little farther south. W. W. Everett was on Willow creek, and G. A. and John Snook were on Pumpkin creek below the Bay State ranch. Uzell Snook on Wildcat mountain is the son of G. A. Snook. The names of Bert Warner, W. W. Warner, Rolla Warner, Arthur Warner, Dunn brothers, W. C. Spahr, and C. W. Rider, sound like voices from home, to the old timers.

Around Ashford there are a group of likewise interesting names that hark back into the primitive years. The Howards, the Masons, the Stauffers, the Shaftos, the Walters, and the Olsons, the Andersons, Chris Pfiefer, the Shauls. Leonidas Leach brought into the county some of the finest Morgan horses ever seen in this section. Emma Leach, now of Long Beach, California, planted the trees that top the hill south of the old Ashford townsite.
