As to the January 19, 1906 - NW O.T. News concerning ... "Oklahoma News - $10,000 Suit For Woman's Death -- Charles E. Carpenter, administrator of the estate of Mrs. Emma Archer, has brought suit against the street railway company at Guthrie for $10,000 damages for the death of Mrs. Archer, who was killed, with her daughter, Miss Dove Cupp, by an electric car on June 9, 1905. The case is being pushed by Mrs. Vera Calhoun, a Kansas City trained nurse, and the sister of Mrs. Archer, who has the custody of her son, Robbin Cupp. Mrs. Archer had a suit pending for divorce from James Archer at the time of her death, but if damages are recovered from the street car company he will, of course, get his share of the proceeds."
