I have no idea who wrote that article, nor who "the granddaughter" of Wesley Goswick was that supplied the last part of the info--but I do not think that Wesley was responsible for the killing of Mr. Olds.  William Wesley Goswick, was son of William Isaac and Lutishey (Wright) Goswick.

Message from Chris Benson, grandson of Norman and Donna Goswick
Kay,

I am Norman and Donna Goswick's grandson, Christopher.
I just wanted to send mail and let you know that Donna passed away last
Friday, Feb 25th.

She was ill for many months with Pneumonia, and then a fungus infection in
her lungs finally was too much for her.

Her full name was Donna Pauline (Henry) Goswick b. 3/1/23 d.2/25/00, wife of
Norman Floyd Goswick.

She is already missed by everyone who knew her. I hoped you could add her to
your memory page, as she enjoyed meeting you, and always spoke highly of you
and others who so welcomed her at family reunions.

Thanks
Chris Benson

A service will also take place at 1 p.m. Monday, July 26, in the Westcott Funeral Home, 1013 E. Mingus Ave., in Cottonwood, Ariz., with visitation beginning at noon. Interment will follow in the Cottonwood Cemetery.

Mr. Cole was born to Wilson A. and Cecil M. (Goodman) Cole Nov. 5, 1918, in Ca`F1on City, Colo. He went to schools in Ca`F1on City and grew up near Westcliffe, Colo., where graduated in 1936 from Custer County High School. After high school, he moved to Cottonwood with his parents.

Mr. Cole entered the U.S. Army on Feb. 19, 1941, and served his country during World War II in the European-African Theater from May 1, 1943, to Feb. 17, 1944.
