WHATcoM, Dec. 10 Especial. I'D. II.
Long, who shot his wife and son-in-law on
December ,. delivered himselfup to Sheriff
De Lorimer today on Lummi island. Yes
terday he had an interview with Lewis
StImson. through the Intervention of his
brother-in-aw. who lives on the island
Today the sheriff went over there on the
steamer Brick, knowing nothing of Slim
sons presence on the island. While
Sheriff De Lorimer was sitting in Hatler's,
the brother-in-law house, in walked
Long and ex-Marshal Stimson. Longs
daughter, the wife of the man whom
Long killed, for the first time showed
emotion and cried. Long was on the way
to give himself up. He had been living in
a hollow cedar stump and subsisting on
what he could forage. He had run out of
food and had found a dead bear, which he
had intended to eat before he concluded to
come in. His daughter had not seen him
since the tragedy. He was half starved,
and tells the following concerning the
tragedy.
He knew his wife was intimate with
Humes, and was watching the couple.
The night before the murder he was at
Humes house. listening to them, and
they were plotting how they could get his
property. The girl, his daughter and
Humes wife, he said. suspected her
mother and was crying. The next night,
the night of the tragedy, he went
into his house and found Humes with his
arm around his wife, and the girl, Humes'
wife, he believes was crying. The door
was locked, and the girl came to the door
and opened it. He entered. and when he
saw the situation said it was a fine state of
affairs, whereupon his wife, who knew
he carried revolver, sprang at him. A
scufIie ensued, in which the woman was
shot. What followed he does not remem-
ber, but thinks he killed Humes He
wrote the letter which was published
in the PosT-INTELLIGENcER in his
house in the dark, then walked
up the railroad track and stole
canoe above Squallicum creek and went
TO the reservation, where he got food from
an Indian, and then padded over to
Lummi island, where his sister lived. The
sheriff doubted that he was on the island
until he came in, as he had had a deputy
watching the place for five days at a
stretch. Longs story differs from that of
his daughter and from the wounds on the
woman. His wife was shot twice. and the
girl says that Humes was shot first
