Guy Moss, who was “about 21 years of age,” was killed on March 11, 1900. He was on his way home from church with a few boys when they started the race.

“The man was in the lead, and as he came down the hill, his horse fell, throwing him under him,” the local newspaper wrote. “Albert Lewis was behind and couldn’t stop, so his horse also fell on top of the boy.”

Moss lived for approximately two hours after the accident. He was badly bruised, had two broken ribs and “apparently bled internally.”

Moss did not return home until a few days later from Logan, Utah, where he was attending school.

“He was a respected young man in the vicinity and had many friends who will be sorry to hear of his sudden death,” the article said.

The newspaper said electric light bulbs swung back and forth “in a lazy manner,” while the clanking of dishes and slight movements of furniture were reported in the city.

BURLEY — A plane scheduled to fly from Burleigh to Las Vegas has disappeared, sparking a search, the Idaho State Journal reported March 14, 1960.

The plane was carrying five members of the same family, including West Stoddard, from Alaska, his wife, Helen, their 28-year-old daughter, Mrs. Horace Cumbie, her 6-year-old son, Randy, and Stoddard's aunt, from Arizona. .

“Stoddard, his wife, daughter, and grandson left Anchorage last Monday on a family visitation trip,” the newspaper said. “Mrs. Lee, from nearby Hepburn, joined the family trip in Burleigh. They were eventually going to visit their mother and some siblings who live in Arizona.

Stoddard was an “experienced pilot” and ran his own aviation service at Merrill Field near Anchorage.

“He submitted a flight plan to Las Vegas via Ely, Nevada, and took off from Burleigh at 9:50 a.m. on Sunday, but we never heard from him again,” the newspaper said. “He had six hours of fuel. The estimated duration of his flight was three hours.

1976-2000

CHESTER – A high-speed chase and a string of cash seized in an “armed robbery” in Chester led to the arrest of two people, the Idaho Falls Post-Register reported March 14, 1977.

Delbert Collette, 18, of St. Anthony, and a 17-year-old juvenile in Salt Lake City, Utah, were being held in the Fremont County Jail awaiting arraignment Monday morning on armed robbery charges.

Fremont County Sheriff's Deputy Michael Matthews, who investigated the incident, said he received a phone call at 3:45 p.m. Saturday reporting an armed robbery at a Brown Country store in Chester. Authorities were searching for two suspects.

Matthews headed in the direction the pair had reportedly fled. Ashton Officer Gary Barnes contacted Matthews and said he had spotted the armed suspects and was pursuing them.

“Barnes relayed that although he was unable to overtake the suspects, he was able to keep them in sight,” the newspaper reported.

The pair “abandoned the pursuit and their vehicle in a snowbank” in Drummond, and Barnes began pursuing the pair on foot, Matthews said. Matthews arrived on the scene minutes later and assisted Barnes in apprehending one of the fugitives.

The other suspect was arrested around 4:20 p.m. Saturday by deputies about an eighth of a mile from the abandoned vehicle.

“Deputies were aided in tracking down the juvenile suspect by a wad of money — approximately $40 — that had been sporadically thrown by the youth in an attempt to divest himself of evidence linking him to the armed robbery,” the mail log said.

The article continued that the “gun” used in the robbery was a wooden stick in Colette’s jacket pocket, pointed at the store employees. Deputies were not aware of how strongly the two men were “armed” until after they were arrested.
