1889: Mrs. Nickelson said that she formerly lived in Tucson, Ariz., where she was beaten, kicked and cuffed, and on more than one occasion almost had the life choked out of her. She stood this sort of thing for years, and when Nickelson was arrested she would not appear against him, hoping to be able to reform him, as when he was sober he would make all sorts of promises to do better.
