The killing occured about eleven miles souheast of Cheyenne on the road from this place to Elk CFity. From what we can learn of thed circumstances, it seems that one Edgar A. Sweatt, who claimed to be a collecting agent for the State Mutual Insurance Company of Oklahoma City obtained lodging from Knox Price, a farmer on the W.W. Duke Ranch on Sandstone Creek, Monday night. Tuesday morning after breakfast it seems that Price and Sweatt had some words over the former removing he latter's horses from the barn in order to feed his own. It appears that Sweatt had used abusived language toward Price, using vulgar names and then had driven away in his buggy withou paying his bill. Price follow! ed him on a horse with a gun, and upon overtaking him they compromised on the grounds that a Mr. Betts was owing Sweat some money and they went to the Betts house to collect the money. Sweatt went into the house but soon returned with the information that Betts did not have the money, but that he would pay him. Price then raised the bill from $1 to $1.50 stating that it was worth 50 cents more if he had to wait for his pay. Another story is that Price demanded that Sweatt retract the language he had used, which he denied using. At the time Sweattg was standing inside the door of the Betts house, and drew his revolver and commenced shooting, one ball strikeing the horse upon which Prices was sitting. At this point, Betts put Sweatt out of his house and he and Price started aroung the housde, as we understaned it, in opposite directions until they camed within site of each other and then began shooting again. After the smoke had cleared away. Sweatt was found sitting! against the home with several loads of shot in his face. Price was s hot in the right shoulder bladed but the injuries are not considered dangerous. Price came to town on Tuesday, the day of the shooting and surrendered to Sheriff Elliott, Sweatt had on his person, $50.10 in currency, a gold watch and wore a diamond ring. Thursday's Oklahoman say Sweatt has been traveling for the Stated Mutual for some time. Sweatt was a single man of about 32 years of age. Cheyenne Sunbeam, Cheyenne, OK 30-Mar-1906
