Jack Edwards, writing from Bis
bee, Arizona to a friend in Nome,
tells of the death of Leo Barrows,
at Bisbee during the copper strike.
Edwards says that Barrpws,
while trying to defend two defense
less women from the brutality ot
the Bisbee Chamber of Commerce,
was shot and instantly killed, by
this bunch of human vultures, at
the behest of the Copper Barons.
Barrows came to Nome in the
spring of 1915. He worked for
a time up at Lost River, drove team
for Billy Rowe and worked at long
shoring for a time, and went out on
the last boats in thefall.
At the time of his death Barrows
was just 25 years old. He was a
very quiet, peaceful and unassum
ing young fellow and was very well
liked by all with whom he came in
contact a. ,

(Captain) forward; George Wanger,
forward; Dan Kelly, center; Fred
Haering, guard; Earl Berg, guard;
Substitute, Sam Wttenberg.

tain) center; Earl Modini, forward;
