THE .TkL 10Th OF MAY
The murder for which young Rupp is
row on Trial for his life, was committed on
the morning oi the 10Th OF May, in Easton
township, near AEllwocI, in the northwest
cru part of the county. There had been a
good deal OF feeling between Rupp and the
murdered man, Fred h.ppenheimer, they
having had some trouble in regard to the
settling up Of the joint partnership into
in the management of farm. HeppenL e,-
t,,cr a Of oh f~rsy e
said to be by some
OF VIOLENT TEMPER
and dangerous man when fully aroused.
Rupp is beardless youth of hardly more
than twenty-five years Of age, with quick,
nervous expression, and not a dangerous
looking young man by any means. On the
morning of the 10th of May Heppenheiuer
came over from his house, which was prob
ably . quarter of mile distant from where
Rupp and his brother, younger than HIM
self, lived, and found the boys in the stable.
and Rupp had some words,
when the former
STARTED FOR THE LATTER
with a sickle which he had in his hand
Rupp ran 10 his house, seized his gun, and
IS Heppenh.imer approached shot him
through the bowels, the wounded man dying |
in snort time. 1t is said that after Rupp |
had entered his house Heppenheimer tried |
to force an entrance through the door, and |
that he threw the sickle at the lad, the |
weapon striking and sticking in the door.
Upon the stand one witness, Mr. Shaw,
,wore that the night before the killing Rupp
had threatened Heppenheimer, saying that
be
HAD GUN LOADED
for him. The defense will endeavor to
how that the murder was committed in
elf defense, and will try to prove the vio-
ent temper Of Heppenheimer. The trial
s still in progress, the evidence not being
III in when the court adjourned last night.
The only witnesses to the killing we're Rupp
md his young brother. The murder seemed
dearly to be the result of the bad feeling
.xisting between the two men.
