Speaking of the murder and suicide near
Wahpeton, the Globe says: When Fisher's trunk was opened Monday by Coroner Kauffman and
Sheriff Moody they found written on a tablet, "In memory of Claus Fisher. I will shoot and kill Annie Heinrich and myself. I want my money to be used in erecting tombstones at the head of Annie's grave and my grave." Money and notes to the amount of $552.19 was found in the trunk.
