south Of Charlevoix on Shores Lake,
where he also kept number OF sum-
mer boarders during the season.
Porter had been brooding some time,
fearing tLat his family would starve
to death. and finally decided to muir
der them and kill himself. While
his son, Henry, aged 81, was asleep on
couch with his back toward the
center of the room, Porter came down
from his bedroom and discovered him.
He immediately returned upstairs and
got revolver. Without waking the
son he crept up to him and shot him
through the shoulder at close range.

downstairs and together with Henry.
