Killed as House Is Fired ! Allentown, Pa., Sept. 9 (P)—Hu- man life, including his own, held ar 8§ o'clock in Judd's hall. very little value in the estimation of Granville Holben, a Lehigh county farmer, who slew a sheriff and his deputy rather than pay a fine of §2 and was himself shot to death while flecing from his burning home where he had barricaded himself to pre- vent capture. The officers, Sheriff Mark Sepsen bach and Deputy Sheriff Harry Sieg fried, had gone to the Holben farm to serve a bench warrant calling for the farmed’s appearance in court for sentence on a charge of failing | to send his minor children to school. They arrived late yesterday. ! Holben was not at home, but his { wife, when she learned the sheriif's | errand, informed the officers that | her husband would not give himself | up and that “God would protect | him.” While the sheriff and h leput# were parleying with the voman, Holben came aross the field | vith a shot gun over his shoulder. | He ordered the officers off the premises and opened fire when they | refused to comply. The shots went | | i wild and Holben fled into his house and barricaded himself. The sherift sought to have Hol-| ben's wife and daughter prevail | upon him to surrender. The girl was | induced to go inside and her father finally gave her the gun. When Sensenbach and Siegfried started to enter the farmer wrested the weapon | rrom his daughter and let both b; rels go almost simultaneously. Sicg- | fried was instantly killed and Sen- | senbach dled on the way to the hos- | pital. 4 Reinforcements were phoned for and several from the city and state trolmen hurried to the miles away. Efforts to disloc hen were fruitless and two other of- ficers were slightly wounded during the siege, which continued several hours. The “smoking out” process was then resorted to first a hen house | near the dwelling was set on fire but this did not seem to worry the be- sieged man. Flnally the flames communicated to the farm house and Holben was heard to call to his pet dog, ‘“Here T come here, | Ted.” A few minutes later he made | a dash from a rear door but a few shots brought him to earth mortally wounded Holben, his neighbors sald, had | heen acting strangely months and sty of God,” he was said to have had the hallucination that the world was then tele- | policemen | motor pa- farm, 16 Hol- | | soon to end and made no effort to | till his acres last spring because of his belfef.
