YOUNG GIRL AT CREEDE
KILLS HER FATHER

Denver, Nov. 1S.-A Creede dispatch
to the Denver News under date Of last
Saturday says: A startling tragedy
was enacted in Creede at o'clock last
evening In the shooting of Coroner DR..
A. N. Simpson by his fifteen-year-old
daughter Gertrude. Death was instan-
taneous, the doctor only gasping few
times after the shot. The bullet, from
a .41-caliber Colts revolver, pierced the
heart and passed almost through the
body.
The shot was fred by the girl as the
/. doctor lay on the bed under the infiu-
ence of liquor, facing the wall, and the
muzzle Of the gun was placed In the
center Of the back and burned the
mans clothing.
The shooting was made known by
the girl, who ran to a near by store,
exclaiming: Papa has been shot" Ex-
element ran high, but the authorities
soon took charge and the citiznes were
content to await Developments. The
finding of coroner's jury this morning
was that Dr. Simpson came to his
death by gunshot wound at the hands
of his daughter Gertrude in self-de-
tense, and that she be exonerated.
The circumstances which led up to
the killing are well known to the citi-
zens, but no such outcome was ex-
pected. Dr.. Simpson had been es-
tranged from his wife for several
years and the daughter Gertrude very
recently came to live with her father.
The daughter testified that her life
had been repeatedly threatened by her
father, he making gun plays and tell
ing her that he would kill her last
night, that she was driven to the des-
perate act through fear of her life.
DIR. Simpson has been prominent
figure in Creede almost from Its in
ception, and was the most successful
physician In this part Of the state. He
was also well known in lodges and es-
pecially generous to the labor1ng class.
His wife, who has been living in Lord
burg. New Mexico, is expected here
Monday.
Denver, Nov. 1S.-Further develop
ments In the Creede patricide Indicate
DR.. Simpson treated his daughter In an
atrocious manner, and that when she
fred the fatal shot she was in fear OF
death unless she submitted to his un-
natural desires. She asserts that he
told her be would kill her unless she
yielded and would kill her II she gave
warning o. attempted to leave the
house
