Show Fiend Abroad In Southern Utah That a fiend is abroad in southern Utah Is the information received by the sheriff's office here from Parowan, Paro-wan, and again from the New Castle section. Word from City Marshal Dalton of Parowan is to the effect that a man driving down the highway near that town, slowing his machine to give a hiker a ride, was knocked out by a blow over the head. The machine ma-chine ran into the borrow pit and the attacker was unable to steal it. A search failed to reveal the man's whereabouts. A partial description was given, and he was next heard from in the Newcastle district when, upon calling at a farm house and finding no one but a young lady at home, knocked her unconscious and then attacked her. She was found upon the return of her husband in a serious condition. The description of this man tallies with that furnished furnish-ed by the Parowan officer. Officers throughout southern Utah are on the lookout for a man answering answer-ing his description but as yet he has not been located. Efforts are being made to link him with the Seattle murderer who is known to have been in Salt Lake two weeks ago, and who, it is thought was headed for southern California by way of St. George.
