AL WILLIAMS DIES 3N flVVfUL
DEATH LOST ON THE DESERT
Graphic Dscription of Terrible Sufferings of
a Man Starving and Alone In the Burning
Wastes of the Death Valley Region.
The finding of the body of Al
Williams, near Darwin, as told of
in the independent last week, solves
another o the mysteries of the
desert. 'And on account of the diary
kept by Williams it tells the story
of the Bufferings of that death as
nothing else could. It tells of a
struggle, against death, lasting for
26 days a death that can hardly
be realized. Every year men go to
their death in this great waste,
but seldom does a man ever live
as long and keep as accurate ac
count of everything as Williams
did.
At the place where he was found
was evidence of the game fight he
found water. Ho probably dug for
this water on May 19th. From that
time on he laid at this place and
made as remarkable a battle for life
as a man. ever could make. Sick
and unable to leave the spot, h'e
probably waited day by day praying
that some ono might find him and
save his life. It seems that right
from the beginning he had very
little hopes that he would ever ie
rescued. But as he lost strength
and the nats tormented him, lie
never seemed to ever lose his
nerve.
finally, too weak to write and
almost blind, for the last three
days he merely made his cross In
the diary to show that he was still
alive. And by this small water
hole, which had dried up, his re
mains were found.
Al Williams left Cobo Springs on
the 18th of last May to go to
Domingo Etcharren's ranch at Junc
tion flats, about 16 miles southeast
of Darwin. Practically nothing waa
"heard from him from that time
until hi body was found on August
3rd
Eight days after his disappear
ance Domingo and an Indian set
out to find Williams' trail, going
through the Malapai hills Into a
deep canyon, where they found a
bridle and blanket on a high
boulder where Williams had placed
them. They followed this - trail
about three-quarters of a mile fur
ther and for some reason aban
doned It and returned home.
On July 1 G. C. Barry of Little
Lake saw Domingo at Olancha and
found out from him where the trail
had been abandoned. On August
2, accompanied by Henry Romain
and Jim Sherlock, he left Olancha
with a pack outfit, intending to find
Williams' remains, if possible.
Early on the morning of the 3rd
of August the party arrived at A
B. Sharpe's camp, about four miles.
from where Domingo found the sad
die and bridle. Sharpe joined the
party there, and leaving the pack
outfit at his camp" the, four passed
up the canyon and found the trail.
They found the monument that Do
mingo had built at the point he
found Williams' things. They left
this place at 8 o'clock In the morn
ing and a 11 o'clock came to
where this canyon boxed up. At the
bottom was a precipice about 50
feet high, and here they found the
remains of the unfortunate man.
In his pocket they found the diary
which we print in this article. Also
a letter from his sister, who lives
at Altoona, 111., and a few other
little things.
After finding the body they first
decided to come out and notify the
coroner, but later decided that such
a course would be nonsense, and
made arrangements to bury the re
mains.
The entire party went back to
Sharpe s camp and the following
day Sharpe took another man with
him and went back. They burled
the body on a high bench about 50
feet from where it was found.
short account was written of hi
iieain una tnis was placed ia a can
ana pui into a monument that was
built over the grave.
So ended the life of another man
who has braved the terrors of the
lesert in the search for gold. II
was a type of the men who has
made the western desert as muc
;f a producer to the wealth of the
world as it has leeri. Each year
reaps its death toll from this part
of the country and probably always
will. Hut too much care cannot
ie ex"r-isod In trying to , find the
men when they are lost. They
may only live for a day, but they
may live for weeks. This occur
rence, as sad as It Is. should be ft
lehsoa to the many men who yearly
prospect on tne aewrt, to leave no
stone unturned to find the poor inrt
who fate decrees shall pay this
toll in lives that it seems the des
ert demands.
Following is a copy of the diary
found in Williams' pocket:

In the hack ot the diary, dated
June 9, 1911, Williams had writ
ten the following: "Have stood It
23 days without anything to eat.
If I am able to get one more can
teen of water I am satisfied It will
be the last one. This is surely
hell on earth. Am so sick and
dizzy I ran scarcely see this and
the nats are eating me up."
IMMEDIATE STRIKE NOT
PROBABLE, IT IS SAID

leaders ot the federated unions of
the Harrlman system, Including the

their helpers and carmen, state there
Is no immediate danger of a strike
on the western roads and that no
decision will be reached as to fu
ture action of the men until after
a conference has been held by
their representatives and. the heads
of the Harrlman roads, and then
not until after a referendum vote

the result.
