WHILE MARSHALL LOOKS ON.
H. C. CressweII Shot and Killed Frank
Natter.

Heppner, Ore, Nov. 12.-H. G.
Cresswell shot and killed Frank Nat.
ter, and received bullet in the neck
from a source not now known.
Trouble had been brewing between
the two all the afternoon. Early in
the evening Cresswell met Natter in
the Palace hotel and there row start.
ed. Cresswell had tended bar for Nat
ter at the Brewery saloon, of which
the latter was proprietor. Cresswell
accused Natter of discharging him.
Natter told him he had done nothing
of the kind, saying Cresswell had quit
for some unknown reason. Cresswell
turned to Dee Matlock and asked for a
gun, saying that he would soon put
Natter out of the way. Bystanders
stepped in and stopped the trouble.
About 9 o'clock Cresswell came into
Matlock's saloon and there met Nat
ter, WHO was talking with some
friends. The trouble was renewed and
Cresswell struck Natter over the
head, knocking him to the floor and
cutting two bad gashes in his head.
Three Shots Go Home.
The marshall arrested Cresswell and
was informed by Natter that as soon
as he could go to the drug store and
have his head fixed up he would go
over to the city recorders office and
swear to a charge against Cresswell.
Natter no sooner entered the Office
than trouble began again. Natter
struck Cresswell with his fist, knock
ing him to the floor. When the latter
got up he began shooting, the first
ball hitting Natter in the heart, the
second in the temple and third in
the side.
Second Man Falls.
Cresswell was shot through the
neck, but by whom no one seems to
know, not even City Marshall John
Rasmus nor Recorder Walter Richard
son.
Not shot was fired by Natter. He
had a gun, but all six shells were
found in the weapon.
Dee Matlock followed Natter to the
recorders Office. and when the mar
shall and recorder tried to stop the
trouble Matlock pulled a gun, telling
them to stand back or he would shoot.
Cresswell of late has been drinking
heavily. He has family and is an
old resident of this county, owning
some land and cattle.
Leaves Bride of Three Months.
Frank Natter grew up in Heppner.
His aged parents survive, also young
wife. They had been married but
| three months. He was young man
with many friends.
Matlock is under arrest. Cresswell's
wound is not serious.
