T0 SHOOTING PAULLIS Man Suspected by Coroner’s Jury Says That He Mistook His Neighbor for a Deer. GIVES ALL HIS PROPERTY TO HELP WIDOW OF HIS VICTIM Mrs. Roddeau Receives a Check for $300 and Will Get the Roddeau Homestead. William Roddeau, the man at whom the coroner’s jury pointed the finger of suspicion for the killing of Simon Paullis, has con- fessed. It was anaccident, he declares, nothing but an accident. He mistook his neighbor for a deer and pulled the trigger before he saw his mistake, Not only has Roddeau con- fessed, but in an effort to make some partial reparation for the sad work he can never undo, the homesteader has sent a check for $300 (almost every cent he has in the world) to the widow, and has directed that all his property in this county, includ- 10g a homestead of 160 acres, be turned over to Mrs. Paullis. The confession came a few days ago in the form of a letter consin to a prominent resident of Langor township, Beltrami county. The shooting is as much of a grief to him (quite aside from the fact that he is to blame) as it. was to any of the dead man’s neighbors, declared Rod- deau. Paullis was one of his been anything but the best of feeling between them. 3 The point that seemed to bother the fugitive the most was what punishment would be meted out to him if he .returned and gave himself up. He says he 18 willing to do almost anything but go t7 prison to atone for the fatal error.
