GUILTY AT CASTLE ROCK


In the District court at Castle
Rock last week interest centered
in two cases in the criminal di-
vision, that of William Hoffman,
charged with murder, and that of
the young men charged with cattle
stealing in the vicinity of Case.
The trial of Hoffman, who kill
ed Thomas E. Jackson, commonly
known as Thomas Campbell, at
Sedalia last spring, occupied a
full day. The prosecution was
conducted by District Attorney
Harry McAllister, while Hoffman
was defended by W. II. Davis.
The prosecution was quite vigor-
Gus although it was clearly shown
by witnesses that Campbell had
repeatedly Threatened to kill Hoff-
man and that at the time of the
killing he was about to attack him
with knife. Hoffman was blam-
ed, however, for acting with lit
tie too much haste in taking re-
source to his gun. The case was
given to the jury at II o'clock
