The Arizona Miner Prescott, Arizona Territory November 18th, 1871 Local Intelligence. Accounts received from Camp Date Creek, about the early part of the week, state during the 4th and 5th inst., a large number of the reservation Indians were absent, and did not return until the 6th. The Wickenburg murder was perpetrated on the 5th, and the murderers were traced to Date C. In view of these facts it is evident that the Apache-Mohaves, at Date Creek reservation, were the guilty ones. The evidence against them is circums tantial, but so clear as to amount almost to proof.
