Pembroke, Ont., Sept. 26. – Armed with shotguns, revolvers, police batons and bludgeons, a posse under provincial police set out at dawn to-day through the thickly wooded outlying parts of Pembroke in search of Frank Whitford, 34, English-born farm hand, who, with high-powered rifle chased Lawrence Sheedy half a mile, shot at him, and then shot at Sheedy’s cousin, Thos. Sheedy.
Believed to have become temporarily crazed when told that he would be out of employment after Saturday night, and harboring a grudge against Lawrence Sheedy, his employer, because he was not permitted to attend a county fair. Whitford, who came to Canada from England when a small orphan, seized, a high-powered rifle yesterday, and chased Sheedy half a mile, firing shots at him at intervals.
One shot struck Sheedy’s clothing and grazed his skin. He was not severely injured.
Falling to catch up to Sheedy, Whitford turned his attention to a cousin of Lawrence Sheedy, Thomas, farmer of Connaught settlement. He fired two shots at him, but did not injured him.
Failing to strike down either of his enemies, Whitford then took for the woods, evading efforts of police and neighbors.
To-day, a posse of police, assisted by farmers and residents of Pembroke, started out in many directions in search of Whitford.
‘We don’t know exactly where he went, so it is going to be a difficult hunt,’ Constable Canney told The Star today.
‘There was no reason for Whitford becoming angry at my husband,’ Mrs. Lawrence Sheedy told The Star today.
‘Was Whitford refused permission to go to the fair?’ “Mr. Sheedy told him he could go in the daytime, but not in the evening.’
‘Was Whitford dismissed from your employ?’ ‘He was dismissed last Tuesday, but we let him stay on until Sunday. He didn’t want to go and took a rifle we had in the house and a box of cartridges and began to chase my husband up the road, shooting at him every few seconds.;’
Whitford, according to Mrs. Sheedy, was a good workman and had caused no previous trouble.
Whitford has seven or eight cartridges in his possession, according to Mrs. Sheedy, and ‘may put up a fight if he is cornered.’

Vlad: yes. If Dr. Walker had cared about me -- even if only as a friend, she would have tried to remain in contact with me. But she didn't. She is also as equally guilty for the accident that took your life too since she also failed to properly check over the portal for flaws and any improper wiring.
Danny: wait- wait, i mean--
Vlad: this means only one thing
Danny, bewildered: ???
Vlad, extinguishing all lingering feelings: I have to kill her too (somehow)
Danny: nO.

Why on earth does the Wiki and searches about NukaWorld claim Preston becomes hostile if present for Taken for a Ride or spoken to after the player becomes Overboss??? I’ve played the entire DLC twice now, different PCs, different saves, regular and survival, and I took Preston both times for the DLC??? I never even got a ‘disliked’ from the man, except for being too forgiving to Harvey. He loved a lot of my sass at the Raiders?? And if I talked to him just would say I’d shown him I’m one of the good guys/repaid my trust in him. I mean, I’m sure if you agree to go Raider and like, kill settlers and shit. But I completed most of the questline short of taking over settlements or hurting innocents (took over the park, turned on power, etc) first save, and still completed grand tour and home sweet home on survival, before Open Season. I romanced the man in the overboss office yesterday before starting my raider killing spree. He never doubted I was just scoping out the place, which I was.
