Rampage of Princess Ends in Tea and Turmoil
Twenty years ago the Pinte princess Sarah Winnemacca drank heavily and enraged, raiding a campoon behind the courthouse to confront a maid of honor connected to a young prince. A bonfire attempt was stopped by a strong supporter, and the princess was defeated in a hair pulling clash. She sought arrest but Sheriff Nash refused, then retired to recover from the skirmish. Additional notes mention a gunpowder box found by the courthouse, busy Greggsville mines, the Arizona mine’s rise, J H Kinkead moving to Virginia City, and tribes north of Camp Me-Dermit seeming hostile, signaling possible conflict.
