Reed Family (Kawich Mountains, Nevada). It's said that Jack Longstreet had been shot in the arm, and refusing to see a doctor, lived with an infected arm for many years. He did get Maude Reed attend to the arm, and also Maude's daughter, Helen Reed, when she got older. The arm, it's said, had a foul odor.
