According to these witnesses, Dewald was washing his hands in the kitchen of the boarding’ house at Bucknum, conducted by Mrs. Alta Rosenberry, sister-in-law of the dead man, when Rosenberry came in and began abusing him, threatening to’ ki him, Dewaid, the witnesses de- Pores then left the room in an effort O>avoid trouble, dnd Rogenberry fol- lowed him.into the yard. At this point, Dewald claims that Rosenberry shoved ‘his hand into’ his right-hand front trousers: pocket, with the threat that he was -going to kill him right there. Dewald then, according to his stoty, drew his gun and began to shoot wildly with his eyes closed. Upon séarching the body of the dead man, @ pair of brass knucks was found in the right-hand trousers pocket, but no gun was found. After the murdor Dewald went to the telegraph station and wired. the sheriff's office that he had killed a man ‘and requested that’ some Une come and get him and bring the goroner along. According to those who know the’ who acted as coronér m the absence of ‘Cor- oner Gay, impaneled a jury composed of Raymond Rowan, Will. Lilly and; Pete Donovan, who returned a verdict. that Rosenberry had come to his death! from @ gunshot wound, from a 32.20! caliber gun, fired by John P. Dewald. AS s00n as three other witnesses can be secuged, Dewald will be given a pre- liminary ‘hearing before Judgé Tubbs. ‘The only witnesses called at the cor- oner’s inquest were Mrs. Alta Rosen-; berry, sister-inl@w of the dead man,| ant Dewald,-who testified as related. The other eye-witnesses are said to be ence Rinker, and Ed Quinn of Casper and Doc Posey. Aljl these. witnesses have been subpoenaed for the prelim- inary hearing. Frank Rosenberry is an old-timer in Netrpna County, and together with his brother, John Rosenberry, operated a ranch on North Casper Creek. He was also part owner of the boarding house in Bucknum where the murder took! place, he being in partnership with his| sister-in-law, Mrs. Alta Aap cae ted wife of John Rosenberry. Dewald is a teamster in the pas A of Rubert Crane, who operates @ soda company at Sodium. Before entering the World war he was in the employ of| Patten & Milne as a sheep herder. He enlisted for service in the war in Cas- per in July, 1917, and saw twenty-six months" service abroad. He took part in the offensive at Verdun from Octo- ber 17 until November 11, and had an} honorable discharge in his ‘possession | when taken into custody by Deputy| Sheriffs Kyte and Cantlin, ‘The murder yesterday constitutes the fourth of a series of tragedies en- acted within Natrona County in aspace of legs than three weeks.
