January 15, 1891Stabbing Affray.
Saturday night last after the young men left the Otter Creek church fair, two sons of Mrs. Ruben Wagoner aged 16 and 18 years, got into an alteration with Jimmy Stokesbury a young man of about 21 years and the latter received knife stabs in both right and left sides which prostrated him. Passers by assisted him home and Dr. D. N. Loose was called Sunday. The doctor found the wound in the left side had penetrated the pleural cavity, making it dangerous. Sheriff McCaffrey and County Attorney Kelsey went to Otter Creek, investigated the case and the two Wagoner boys were arrested and taken to Andrew to be held to appear before the grand jury in February.
