The Indians were very busy getting the cemetery in order for Decoration Day, and the exertion may have been too much for Phillips, as his health has been poor for some time. There is a rumor that the well known Indian woman, White Cinda, who was under the influence of liquor, had choked Phillips, and otherwise handled him roughly, an hour or so before his death, and this may have led to his demise. +++++++++++ Evening Herald Klamath Falls, Or.
