GEORGE PAYS FINE
Former Independence Teacher Saves
Girl From Notoriety.

George Murdoch, for some time a
teacher in the independence public
schools has stepped into the lime
light in Portland, according to the
following story from the Oregonian:
Rather than reveal the name of the
young woman who shot a hole through
a rural free delivery mailbox, while
in his company, last July, George MUIR
dock yesterday pleaded guilty to the
crime and paid fine of s25 in the
United States court
Mr.. Murdock has been one of the
well-known school teachers of Inde-
pendence for many years. During the
summer of last year he attended a
teachers institute at Monmouth, to
which a large number of young wo-
men were attracted for a course of in
struction in teaching. On Sunday, July
25, Murdock invited one of the party
to a picnic in the country, and took
along a gun. During the day they en-
gagged in shooting at mark, but one
of the bullets perforated the mail
equipment through the misdirected
efforts of the young woman to connect
with the target.
Murdoch refused to advise the pos
tai inspectors of the name of the
school teacher who pulled the trigger,
and was himself indicted by the Fed
eral grand jury. He was arrested at
the law school of the Willamette Uni
versity at Salem, where he is now a |
student and came to the government |
building yesterday armed with large |
roll of yellow-backed bills to deposit |
as bond for his appearance. After dis
cussing the matter with District At
torney McCourt, the latter concluded
that the crime was not premeditated,
and recommended that Judge Bean
impose as light fine as possible.
Mr.. Murdock Immediately visited
the Office of Clerk Marsh and secured
a receipt for the cash. Asked for the
history of the case, the young man
smilingly refused to discuss it. He
said:
II was in hopes that nothing might
be said about the case. 1t was an ex-
pensive picnic all right. 1 could not
fight the case without bringing in the
name of the young woman who was
with me so concluded to pay the fine"
