Living History (re: Daniel and Hans Borg)

On 14 Dec 2009 I posted a newspaper article that was written 29 Apr 1916 and appeared in The Richfield Reaper. This local paper continues to be in print to this day. The following post is an article written by Ardis E. Parshall, Utah Historian, and appeared in The Salt Lake Tribune on 02 Jan 2010


Living History: Crime of passion in 1916 led to violence, prison
History » In the dead of night in Richfield, a 'quiet, inoffensive' man opened fire.
By Ardis E. Parshall

It was April 27, 1916, and a crime was being committed in Richfield. City Marshal Dan Borg had been apprised of the development and he deputized his brother, Hans Borg, to assist him in detecting the act and arresting the perpetrators.

The two sworn officers, together with W.A. Cheel and a man named Anderson, assembled at dusk and proceeded cautiously toward a cabin owned by Cheel and rented to Clara McCabe, lately arrived from the mining camp at Marysvale. At 9:30 p.m. they positioned themselves under the window sills and listened for an opportune moment to enter. Two hours passed as the posse members bided their time, listening to the inside conversation and occasionally taking furtive peeks through the windows.

Finally, at 11:30 p.m., sounds from within assured the lawmen that criminal activity was in progress. With a single kick, Dan Borg broke open the flimsy cabin door and burst inside, followed closely by Hans Borg. Dan struck a match, illuminating the darkened room and its occupants for a brief moment, then the flicker of his match light was answered by two revolver shots.

Hans screamed in pain, his left wrist shattered and his abdomen pierced by bullets. The brothers fled from the cabin. Its door was slammed shut and barricaded from inside as the posse retreated down the narrow dirt lane.

The three men laid Hans on the ground, where he writhed in pain. Dan stayed with his brother while Cheel and Anderson went for a doctor
and the county sheriff, the situation having become too much for the marshal to handle alone. Hans Borg was carried to his home for emergency treatment, then rushed to Salina for surgery. Despite the severity of his abdominal wound, he would recover.

Dan Borg, with Sheriff C.A. Leavitt, returned to the cabin, again dark and silent. Leavitt identified himself in a loud voice and demanded that those inside surrender. After speaking back and forth through the closed door, those within became convinced of the lawman's identity, then opened the door and were peacefully arrested.

They were Clara McCabe, wife of M.J. McCabe, of Marysvale, and Albert Williams, a "quiet, inoffensive man" according to the Richfield press. Williams was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with the intent to commit murder. The couple also received a charge for the crime that had brought the posse to eavesdrop through windows and wait in the chilly darkness for hours: adultery.

The record does not indicate the outcome of the adultery case (although the couple had been fined a month earlier for committing the same act in Marysvale -- a surprising occurrence, perhaps, since the number of saloons and saloon girls in Marysvale at that date far surpassed the number of churches and churchgoers).

Williams was convicted of the assault charge, despite his defense that the lawmen had not identified themselves when breaking violently into the cabin in the dead of night; he contended the arrest was therefore illegal, and that he had fired in self-defense. He appealed to the Utah Supreme Court, which upheld his conviction. Because Williams was knowingly engaged in a crime, the court reasoned, he should have anticipated the arrival of the law and submitted.

Williams was sentenced to an indeterminate term in the state penitentiary.

Two years later he sought a pardon, maintaining that his was a crime of circumstance that would not be repeated. He promised to leave Utah to live with his mother in California. His petition was supported by letters from many who had known him in Marysvale, from the Mormon bishop to the roasters at the alunite mines. One mine supervisor offered him a job. The Marysvale town marshal vouched for his good character. Ordinary citizens complained that he had been treated unfairly.

Williams was released, and, like Clara McCabe, disappeared into the backdrop of a changing American society.

Lost Sister, Donna Lynn Borg

My dad had a daughter from his first marriage. I met her when I was very young and she lived with us for about 6 months. Her name is Donna L Borg and she was born sometime in the mid 1930's. I continue to search for more information on Donna and would appreciate any help. Donna could have gone by the last name of Borg, Shaw, or Bell.

My Grandfather, Hans E Borg, Shot in the line of duty

Newspaper Article found by our cousin T. Borg. First printed in The Richfield Reaper News on 29 Apr 1916, Richfield, Utah.

DEPUTY MARSHAL SHOT IN THURSDAY MORNING RAID

Investigation of Illicit Love Affair By Peace Officers Results in Shooting of Hans Borg ------ Chances for His Recovery Said to be Favorable

Richfield was the scene of a shooting affairat an early hour Thursday morning which came near being a tragedy. Illicit love and the weakness of a woman form the base of a story which can be told in a single chapter.

About the first of April a woman named McCabe came to this city from Marysville. She rented a little home owned by W. A. Cheel and entered into possession. She had been devorced from her husband about a year. Mrs. McCabe was little known here. She appeared, superficially, to be a quiet, industrious sort of a woman, and did nothing to arouse suspicion or curiosity in the neighborhood.

Mr. Cheel had been apprised that a man named Williams was here on Wednesday, and having heard that he and the McCabe woman had been charged with undue intimacy at marysville, he made complaint to city marshal Dan Borg, setting up the allegation that he believed things were not "all right" at the home of the McCabe woman, urging further that certain untoward circumstances be investigated.

Early Thursday morning Marshal Borg proceeded to the McCabe home, deputizing his brother, Hans Borg, to accompany him. Mr. Cheel and a Mr. Anderson, also went with the officers. Arrived at the residence about 1 o'clock, they found the place in darkness and no apparent movement about the premises. Marshal Borg knocked at the front door and demanded admission, eliciting no responce from within. The posse remained on the outside a half hour or more without hearing anything of an incriminating nature and finally Marshal Borg threatened the occupants of the house that he would enter in a forcible manner. This he proceeded to do, wrecking the door to gain admission.

Dan Borg and his brother, Hans, were the first to cross the threshold, striking a match immediately after making their ingress.

The match made but a faint illumination, but in its expiring glow Williams and the McCabe woman were discovered occupying the same bed in the rear of the room. Ere the light became extinguished, Williams rested himself upon his elbow, drew a revolver and fired two shots at the invaders. Both shots were effective. Hans Borg staggered from the room with his left wrist broken and lacerated and with a bullet in his abdomen. This last entered his right side and ranged downward, causing a perforation of the intestines.

The wounded man was conveyed to his home and medical aid summoned. Prior to this Sheriff Leavitt was notified and hurriedly proceeded to the scene where, after Williams had put on his clothes, he was placed under arrest.

Hans Borg, the victim of the shooting, was hurried down to a hospital in Salina and his injuries given immediate attention. The wound in his abdomen is the most serious of all, and may cost him his life. Yesterday evening, however, he was reported resting easily, with many chances of recovery. Dr. Steiner accompanied him to the hospital and assisted in operations that were essential. He will have the best skilled treatment and his relatives and friends hope for the best.

Albert Williams, the man with the gun , does not have the reputation of being a "bad" man. He is said to be a quiet, inoffensive fellow with good traits of character. He is unfortunate in getting himself tangled up into such a net of circumstance, but illicit love has caused many a tragedy since the beginning of this sinful old world.

Mom's Carrot Cake

Dorothy May Dickerson Borg, born 21 Apr 1924 in Ogden, Utah. Died 13 Nov 1976, after a long fight with cancer, in San Bernardino, California.

Way back when, Mom would bake carrot cake around this time of the year. Us boys knew that around Chistmas time that was a treat worth waiting for. To smell it baking would make my mouth water. To this day we continue to have carrot cake during the holiday season. Below is the recipe for mom's Carrot Cake. We found the card with the recipe written in Mom's hand writing back in the 70's and use it every year to make this great dessert or evening snack. Following is that recipe;

Mom's Carrot Cake

3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2 tea/sp cinnamon

Our Aunt Iola Borg-Beutler

I first posted this early last year but wanted to bring it forward.

This is without saying but remembering back to the early 1950's is somewhat difficult. I was around 7 yrs. old when I first met my Aunt and Uncle. They lived in Richfield, Utah and we lived in Salt Lake City, Utah. My dad, my brother Gary and I took the trip that took all day and then some. For the first time we were going to Richfield where our father and his father was born. We was excited to be able to see the city we had heard so much about. Dad had a 1936 Studebaker and the 160 miles of what would be called backroads today took all day. Boy, I was so excited about all this. From our house we went over to State Street and turned south. Dad said we would be on State or Main Street all the way to Richfield. Now when I look back on that day I can remember all the towns we went through on that trip. By the time we pulled into Richfield it was starting to get dark. This was in the summer time so it must have been getting late. Uncle Don and Aunt Iola welcomed us with open arms. I don't remember much of that first evening but the next morning was a time I will always think about when looking back at my childhood. I don't remember having much contact with my Uncle but my Aunt and I hit it off from the start. I remember thier kids didn't have much to do with my brother and I. I was somewhat of a loner and my brother was a little guy at the time so my cousins and I didn't have much in common. That first morning we all sat down to a breakfast made for a king. From that time on I would look forword to setting down to my Aunt's table for a meal. After being there about two days we all went to Fish Lake and had a great time. We stayed with them in Richfield for about a week when one night dad said he wanted to start back home the next day and we would be leaving early in the morning. In that short time I had become real close to Aunt Iola and didn't want to leave. I was totally surprised when my Aunt ask if I would like to stay for a few more weeks and my Aunt and Uncle would take me home when thay took a trip to Salt Lake City to visit with my Grandfather (Iola's Father). Well to say I was overjoyed would be an understatement. That summer was the best one of my childhood. I had my chores to do but after that it was my time to explore and out in that farm country I did just that. If I wasn't out exploring the world around me then I was riding an old horse that belonged to my Aunt and Uncle. There was so much to do that by dark each night I was in bed asleep. There was times when I would stick around the house helping my Aunt and listening to some of the stories she would tell about the Borg family and about Richfield. Today I wish I could remember the stories she told. This was the first but not the last visit I would have with my Aunt. The very next summer I went to my Aunt and Uncle's for a visit and stayed for about 3 weeks. The two summers I spent in Richfield gave me some memories I would cherish all of my life. It trully saddens me that by the time I was 12 years old I had lost contact with all of my dad's family, never to see nor hear from them. Doing the research on my family's genealogy and history has brought many fond memories and some sad ones back into view.
During my research I found the following information regarding my Aunt and Uncle.

In May 2009 I published two posts regarding sons of Pehr Hansson Borg and thier name change. In my research I haven't found a reason why this happened however the date of the change is in the 1860's. Svenn Pehrsson and Rasmus Pehrsson changed thier surname from BORG to BORGQUIST. Both of the young men are posted on the ship roster as BORG, however records in Utah show the surname of BORGQUIST.
