NEVADA DEMOCRAT JANUARY 6, 13, 20, 1858 5
house. Holland pulled G. towards the house. Enders got loose from Brooks, stepped round the crowd and
picked up a stick and came in front of G. and struck at him. When Holland drew G. down by the side of
the house I saw a knife in G.’s hand. The second blow that Enders struck hit Holland on the hand, and
Goldburg turned round and went up the hill. Brenton started in pursuit of G. and hallooed “hang him.”
They ran round the upper side of the house, and a German by the name of Fred ran round the lower side
of the house, when Malone came out of the house. Enders then said ““G—d—n you Brooks, you hold me
after a man has stabbed me.” Malone asked Enders if he was cut, and he said yes. When Enders came up
to Goldburg in the street I was about two feet from the latter. Enders stepped aside about four feet in order
to get to where Goldburg was standing. . . . I did not see G. strike at E. at all, but I heard G. say three or
four times “take him away,” when E. first struck him. Enders is about five feet eleven inches high—pretty
well built, and I think could handle Goldburg easily. . .
