Five Members of
Dilworth Clan Died
With Boots On
KANSAS CITY, Sept. 4.—The mur
der last night of Dwight P. Dilworth,
while driving his motor car through
Van Courtlandt Park in New York
city, was the last of a series of five
murders in the Dilworth family that
began in civil war times. Three of
the murder victims were uncles of Dil
worth, and the fourth was his father.
Mrs. William P. Dilworth, mother
of the man murdered last night, told
today about the tragedies that have
almost wiped out the masculine mem
bers of her husband’s family. Mrs.
Dilworth is visiting her sister, Mrs.
H. Clark, of 1024 Penn St., this city.
“It began during the civil war,”
Mrs. Dilworth said, “when George Dil
worth, a lieutenant in the federal ar
my, was shot by a ‘sniper’ while he
was delivering a message. He had
never been injured in battle, and the
war was then about over. He was
killed while on a mission of peace. We
never learned what killed him. That
was the first of the series of fatalities
that nearly wiped out my husband’s
family.
“James Dilworth, a ranchman in
Montana, was the next to die. He
had upbraided one of his cowboys for
failing to cut some hay, and that night
the cowboy, half crazen with liquor,
waited for James and killed him.
“Thomas Dilworth walked into a
hotel at Fort Scott, Kan., one after
noon to attend a meeting. Two men
were quarreling and one drew a re
volver and fired at the other. The
bullet missed the man shot at and
struck my brother-in-law. He died
immediately.
“My husband, William P. Dilworth,
was next. On Thanksgiving morning
ten years ago he went to his store to
open it. We were living in Oklahoma
City then. He was counting his cash,
when a man walked into the store
and commanded him to throw up his
hands. There never was a Dilworth
living that could ever raise his hands
above his shoulders, and my husband
was killed as a result. The man who
killed him is now serving a life term
in the penitentiary.
“The only one of my husband’s fam
ily now living is Richard Dilworth, a
minister in Pennsylvania. He escaped
death by a miracle. He was a mis
sionary to Alaska years ago, and was
a very bitter enemy of the whiskey
element. He always talked prohibi
tion. After an extremely bitter at
tack on liquor in a small mining town
one night he was waylaid, assaulted
and left for dead. He was found by
friends, and recovered.”
Mrs. Dilworth has always feared
the fate that seemed to follow the
family.
“We often talked about it,” she said,
“and often wondered who would be
next. I would laugh at the boys and
tell them it was only a string of coin
cidences, because I didn’t want them
to worry. But down in my heart I
was always sure that it would follow
us.”
Mrs. Dilworth, widow of the man
killed last night, is visiting friends
here. She is accompanied by a son,
Dwight P. Dilworth, Jr., 3 years old.
Mrs. Dilworth has no idea who killed
her husband. She said he had no ene
mies that she knew of and had never
received any threats. The young wo
man who accompanied him, she said,
probably was either one of his clients
or a friend of some of their friends.
Mrs. Dilworth left her home in
Montclair, N. J., July 18, and expected
to return about October 1. Funeral
services for Dilworth will be at Fort
Scott, Kan., Thursday or Friday.
