Farish, Thomas Edwin. History of Arizona, Filmer Bros. Electrotype Co., 1918, Volume 8, pages 10-11: “Lieutenant F. H. E. Ebstein had charge of the Date Creek Agency, and was superseded in July, 1872, when General O. O. Howard abolished the reservation, or feeding station as it was sarcastically called. When the transfer was made, Williams became agent at the Verde. ... While Dr. Williams was in charge of the Apache-Yumas and Apache-Mohaves, he had refused to receive cerain sugar on account of the presence of great rocks in each sack. ... Williams was an honest, high-minded gentleman, and deserved something better than to be hounded into an insane asylum...” Also page 317: From Camp Date Creek General Crook returned to Fort Whipple and had been there but a short time when a dispatch from Dr. Williams was received by him, in which he was informed that Jemaspie, chief of the Apache-Yumas, with about a hundred of his people, had returned to the reservation and expressed a desire for peace."
