LOOP HOLE

John Hildebrand VAS last night
found guilty OF murder in the sec
ond degree by the jury which heard
his trial. after four hours OF delib-
Grafton. Hildebrand Was charged
jointly with Kid" White. who con-
feseed TO the city police, but who
denied the confession In the supe-
rior court.
The law OF the state holds that
all persons connected With a holdup
IN the carrying out Of which muir
der is committed are equally guilty..
and although Il was proven that
White fired the shot which killed
old man Murphy in the holdup Of
the Conway saloon in January. Hill
debrand must share the penalty
with him.
The jury. however. evidently felt
that Hildehrand was guilty in
lesser degree than White, as the
verdict last night was found only
In the second degree. while White
was convicted In the first degree.
II remains with the court 20 decide
whether White snail hang or get
life Imprisonment. while Hide
brands neck is now safe from the
moose.
