----
'''DAUGHTER TESTIFIES IN COURT HEARING OVER GUARDIAN.'''
----
'''Mrs. Louisa Stoltz, Deep Creek Pio neer, Has 160 Acres and $1000 in Cash, It Is Said.'''
----
How her mother, Louise Stoltz, a Deep, Creek pioneer, tried to bite her was told by Mrs. Emilie Sutton of The Dalles, Ore., when she testified in the guardian case to determine who should take charge of Mrs. Stoltz.

Judge Blake decided, after hearing the details of the guardian wrangle, that neither Mrs, Sutton, her brother Rudolph Stoltz, nor Wr. George H.  Green of Reardan should take charge of Mrs. Stoltz as guardian. Judge Blake favors the appointment of Peter Tramm of Reardan if he will serve. A quarter section of land and $1000 in cash is owned by Mrs. Stoltz.

While Mrs. Stoltz is under the care of Dr. Green at Reardan, and he asked to be appointed, the son and daughter of Mrs. Stoltz thought they should be appointed, Mrs. Sutton asked that if she was not selected that her brother be named.  Miss Reba Hurn, as attorney for Dr.  Green, attempted to prove Mr. Stoltz had not treated his mother properly.  He denied he ever attacked her.  Mrs. Sutton, daughter of Mrs. Stoltz, then told of her troubles with her mother, who is now about 90 years old.

“When I came up to see her she told me she was glad, to see me, as she now had some one who would put her away decently,” said Mrs. Sutton, whose husband is a railroad man.

"It is true we had trouble a few times, One time she was angry and made improper charges about me. I told her not to do that, and she became angry when I took her hands.

“She tried to bite me, but she only had one tooth and that did not work very well. She scratched her nose and cheek. I called my son to help when she lay down in the yard. She kicked and jumped when we led her to the house.”
