the killing. The latter returned Tuesday,
bringing in Victor Baker, one OF the men
which led to the death OF the herder. From
L. Sullivan we obtained all the inforHia-
tien he could get prior to the eorener's in
quest. 1t appears that the Baker brothers,
Victor and Albert, who are recently from
Oregon, have been getting out fence posts
in the vicinity Of Black Butte. and ONION
day went down to Mr.. Butterfield's cabin
on n visit. While there they got into ads
puts with Mr.. Butterfield's hsrder, whose
name Mr.. Sullivan WAS unable to give, ex-
cept that he was known as "Buokshot."
Mr.. Sullivan says SO far as he could learn
the quarrel arose over the pronunciation OF
the name "Meagher." Hard names and
vile language led to a fight, the Baker
brothers both attacking the herder. Inthe
melee one OF the Bakers hit the hsrder with
"a chair, knocking him senseless. This &C.
Cured on Monday night. The herder was
crszed from the blow he received and grad
ually grew worse until Friday, when he died,
goisg all this time without medical aid or
proper nourishment. Mr.. Butterfield and
a hslf-breed, Vital Jarcot, were presentd dur
ing the fracas, but their statements differ as
to which OF the Bakers used the chair.
Jarcot says it was the one the sheriff
brought to jail, while Buttsrield says it
was Albert, the smaller OF the two, who has
not yet been captured.
Mr.. Sullivan found the corpse in a rough
coffin. perfectly nude and frozen as hard as
a tone.
The hsrder was a man six feet in height
and about twenty-five years OF age.
