In Shadow af Gallows—Yet-= By HAROLD MATSON AMHERST, Me., June 3,—Roland Mac Donald, 16, overgrown, furtive, a boy of the woods, liked most to prowl alone in the hills, gun in hand. Everybody in Amherst =knew of the boy Roland's skill with a gun. When he was a small boy he was a good hunter. Birds were easy prey for him. He stalked big game. And he loved to skin his game, and clean it. Oftimes, when the sport in the woods palled on him he carried his hunting to within the limits of this small town. Pets fell under his fire. Whang! The report of his gun could be heard echoing out of the woods, and the 200 residents knew Boy 16, Who Always Liked To Hunt and Kill, Lands In Jail for Slaying Girl that Rowland was killing again. To them he was the town’s “bad boy,” and accepted as such. Surely his mother could not be blamed for there were nine younger brothers and sisters, and his father. worked in the woods. One day at dusk the hoy w turning from the woods, gu hand. Near the Williams’ house, on a secluded trail, he heard a rustle. With the instinct of a hunter the boy concealed himself in the bushes. in A girl walked the path. Roland recognized her, She was his teach- er, Louise’ Gerrish, 19, “from out of town.” Roland didn't ike school.

Whang! The people of Amherst heard the echoing report and knew that Roland was killing again. The following day the teacher failed to appear at school. When it became known that she was mys- teriously missing a searching party was organized. Roland, the boy with the gun, joined the party. On the trail, near the Williams’ house, they discovered tracks, and then a patch of freshly tilled soil under a tree. Rviand helped them dig into the soft earth. He helped them lift the body of Louise Ger- rish, shot in the breast. ‘The sheriff was baffled. He held the young teacher's men friends and questioned. He questioned everyone of the 200 people in Am- herst, but there was no clue. Then special detectives were called from a big city. They turned: their at- tention to Roland, Casually, almost boastfully, he confessed, according to the detectives. “I don't know why I killed her,” he said. “She was coming and I had my.gun cocked and ready. When she saw me I fired. I didn’t bury her body then because it was supper time, but I came back in the morning.” Unemotionally the boy took the officers to the scene of the murder. He described in detail how he killed the girl. He pointed to the grave. He crawled into the shallow hole to show how he had placed the body,. “just set her body against the tree over night,” he said, dismissing the incident as he might tell of his bagging a deer. ‘But she didn’t have that school money with her, so I took her watch. All of that is what the detectives allege. Now Roland is in jail, a bit dazed but unrepentent. And Amherst, secluded Maine woods town, knows that it won't here the whang of Roland's gun any more, and school is suspended while another teacher is being sought.
