GIBSON FOUND GUILTY
Jury Brings in Verdict of Second
degree.

The jury in the Gibson murder case
rendered itsl verdict of murder in the
second degree after having been out
about four hours. This is Gibson S
third trail for the killing of b. Schon.
bachelor near Merlin, April is, 1909.
In the first trial the jury disagreed,
in the second verdict of murder in
the first degree was rendered, but tho
case was appealed. The third trial
was begun October l., but jury was
not secured until the afternoon of
the eth. The case went to the jury
shortly before O'Clock Saturday
night and a few minutes before mid
night an agreement had been reached.
Judge Hanna having retired for the
night, was called and opened court to
receive the verdict and dismissed the
jury.
The crime for which Thomas Jeffer.
son Gibson was convicted ON the third
trial is the shooting of b. Schonbaoh-
eler at his home about four miles from
Merlin on Friday, April Is, 1902.
According to evidence there were two
witnesses to the tragedy, Mrs Schon-
bachelor, wife of the murdered man,
and Charles Van Dorm, neighbor,
who was in mis- dooryard across
Rogue river, and heard the fatal shot
and saw the prostrate form. Gibson
Immediately surrendered himself and
was taken to Grants Pass and con-
fined in the county Jail
The tragedy was the elimination
of dispute Of many years duration
over the boundary line between the
Schonbacheler ranch and the rented
place on which Gibson was living.
Numerous threats of bodily harm
and even threats to kill are said to
have been made ON both sides, and
both men were expecting trouble
Schonbacheler the afternoon on
which he was shot took his ancient
muzzle-loading shotgun and told his
wife he would go out to shoot some
birds Gibson, going past the place,
carrying 30.30 Winchester saw
Schonbsoheler coming toward him
with the gun and commanded him to
throw down the gun, at the same
time shooting his victim in the head,
killing him instantly. Gibson walk
cd nearly around the prostrato body
at some distance and fired again, this
time the bullet entering his shoulder.
When the case came ON for trial, al
this term Of court, out of panel OF
10 jurymon only one juror was Sc
cured. The counsel for the defense
thean made a motion to have the case
taken out of court on the ground,t that
Gibson was insane. A commission
was appointed by Judge Hanna tC
examine Gibson. They decided that
Gibson was sane and the drawing on
jurors was cont nued. The jury wal
secured after 60 or 20 men were ox
amined.
On Wednesday Judge Hanna sen
fenced Gibson to the penitentiary fol
life
