B   A U.S. Marshall seeking polygamists

From the life of Edwin Dilworth Woolley Jr.:   A niece wrote: “There was no hotel in Kanab, but Uncle Dee had the best home in town. . . . Ironically, during the ‘Raid’ of the ‘80s, a U.S. Deputy Marshal was stricken ill in Kanab and was nursed back to health in . . .  the home of the man he had come to arrest. During [those raids], he moved his wife Flora to Pipe Spring, Arizona, which [had become] a rendezvous for plural wives, and many of their children were born there. He escaped many times but finally fell into their hands. In October of 1887 he was arrested, and after a preliminary hearing, . .. . was acquitted. . . . In September 1890, he was arrested and taken before a grand jury, . . . but the case was dismissed for lack of evidence, as Flora was still in Arizona, and they were unable to get her as a material witness.
