of Boulder in 1872 and this has been the Crees

August 1908 Grand Junction, Colorado "What was beyond the shadow of a
doubt one of the biggest yellow stories ever perpetrated upon the
people of Grand Junction by a local newspaper was embodied this morning
in a rankly sensational and largely untrue account of an alleged
holdup, appearing in the morning paper. Naturally, such a story cast
a reflection upon the city itself, gives out tlie impression that it
is dangerous to venture out at night in Grand Junction and gives
people an unnecessary fear for their safety. While there has
been an occasional holdup in Grand Junction within the past
few years, and one of not far distant date; still there has been
none possessing such sensational features as were given by the
morning paper to the holdup said to have occurred on
Thursdny night. Here are the opening paragraphs of the wild
story published under cross-page headlines in the morning paper:
“Waylaid by three highwaymen,
beaten almost to deatli and robbed of a small amount of money which he was carrying Fred Ullery, aged 20,
son of Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Ullery and one of the most popular young
men in the city, was found lying unconscious in a pool of his own blood
on the porch of his home, 648 Ouray, shortly before 11 o'clock Thursday
night. 'The boy had been assaulted a short time before while returning
to his residence, and, although not completely knocked out. he was
able to crawl on his hands and knees to the door of his home, where
he sank into unconsciousness and remained in that state for more
than twenty-four hours. His condition being such as to cause grave
fears for his ultimate recovery. Then the paper goes on to say that
Ullery had been to a theater with a young lady, was returning home
and found some men following them. The girl's father tried to get
Ullery to spend the night at the home in order to be safe from
the men, but the young man insisted on returning to his home,
and was accompanied a few blocks by the girl's father.
They parted at Eighth and Grand. Ullery took the older man's
revolver and started home. Then the morning paper says that
this happened: “Almost directly opposite the residence
of C. D. Smith three men leaped out behind the boy.
He was struck a terrific blow in the hack of the head and fell
to the sidewalk, where he wsis set upon again, kicked in the
stomach and in the head until he was in a terrible condition.
“Although not completely unconscious, the boy managed to
drag himself over a block to his home, where he lost
consciousness while trying to reach the door.
“A short time later the boy's fsither and others in the
house, attracted by the moaning on the front porch,
went outside to find him bleeding and unconscious,
his pockets turned inside out, showing that he had been
robbed.
“He was taken inside and Dr. Eldrldge was immediately
summoned. The physician worked from 11 o’clock until 2
in the morning trying to resuscitate the youth, but to
no avail, and late last night young Ullery had just regained
consciousness, but was in a delirious state.
He mumbled incoherently, but so far has been able to tell
nothing of the affair.”
From careful investigations made by The Sentinel,
from what could be learned from people most capable of giving
the details and true facts, and from the general
circumstances themselves, The Sentinel is in a position
to prove the story of the morning paper to be almost wholly
without foundation, a bloody, sensational story meant to
alarm and excite people and which is certain to hurt the town
if left unchallenged. Fred Ullery may have been held up
Thursday night. However, these facts are indisputable:
Fred Ullery was not beaten up by holdups or anybody else.
There was not a scratch, bruise, or any other kind of
injury of tne most minute nature on his body. He was not
found on the porch of the Ullery home in an unconscious
condition or in a pool of blood. He was not seriously
injured; he did not crawl to his home on his hands and
knees, and he was not taken into his home in an
unconscious condition. If reports received by The Sentinel
are true, he walked home, retired as usual,
then called members of his family and said that he had
been set upon by footpads. The physicans who were called
did not find young Ullery in a dangerous condition,
and there was nothing to indicate that he had been
terribly beaten and assaulted. Young Ullery was not
unconscious for twenty-four hours. He was able to he up
yesterday. Young Ullery was not found bleeding and
unconscious by the family on the doorstep.
At no time during the past 48 hours has young Ullery
been in a critical condition from any cause, and from
all accounts he was perfectly rational all last evening.
Fred Ullery may have been set upon by footpads and he
may not have been. No complaint was made to the police;
no complaint was made to the sheriff, and no complaint
has yet been made or will be made - an unusual thing
in a holdup case. Fred Ullery was on the streets of the
city today, apparently as well as usual, and was
joked by many friends concerning the great holdup
story in the morning paper. Such sensational stories
as these, published locally under flaring headlines,
and sent to other papers in the state, are the worst
kind of advertisements for Grand Junction, and
call forth the indignation of all right-minded
citizens. If young Ullery was stopped by three men
and attacked, but not hurt in the least, why should
a paper, claiming to be respectable and reliable,
add such flaring, flagrant, and false details in
order to weave out the story?"
August 1910 "H. G. Ullery and family leave today for Deßeque where they will make their future home and where Mr. Ullery has accepted a position with a nursery company at that place."
December 1911 Grand Junction, Colorado "J. F. Ullery,
who has been visiting his brother, H. G. Ullery,
and family for the past week, left this afternoon
for his home in Pomona, Cal., where he is engaged in
business. His nephew, Fred Ullery, came down the first
of the week from Meeker, where he has been for several
months and he will spend the remainder of his vacation
here with his relatives and friends."
April 1912 Grand Junction "The inauguration of an auto
bus between the Argyle house and the union depot is one of the
contemplated features E. N. Spencer expects to add to the service
of his newly purchased hostelry. The new car, which will probably be
installed during the next few months. will meet all trains and do a
general hack and cab business as well.
Mrs. H. G. Ullery has been placed in charge of the Argyle as
manager, and Mr. Spencer expects to make his house one of the best
in the entire city. Other new improvements are being considered and
wil be announced later."
