SWITZER, Mark - Pawhuska was grieved Wednesday morning when news spread about
the city that Mark Switzer, local policeman had been killed during the night.
The facts of the shooting… Switzer and Dutch Maze… saw [C. F.] Edens driving
south… the officers thought Edens possibly had liquor in his car… proceeded to
follow him… came upon Edens while he was getting his car into the garage and
told him to get out… Edens got out of the car on Maze’s side and it is stated,
shot Switzer almost the same time he got out… Maze called the ambulance and
headquarters, but by the time either arrived Switzer was dead… funeral services
for Switzer will be held next Tuesday from the Johnson undertaking parlors. The
date had to be set for then on account of the inability of relatives who live in
Washington, to get here sooner. . [The Osage County News Friday, 14 Jan 1927]
