Triple Murder at
MOsquerO

Mosquero was the scene OF one
of the most regrettable events in
the history of this mesa last
Saturday afternoon resulting in
the death of two men and the
mortal wounding of their murder
er.
As we learn the story from one
who was there soon after the
killing, it was as follows.
Ernest Long and r. r. Holland
came into town Saturday morn
ing and proceeded to tank up.
They made threats and generally
were obnoxious. Malaquias Baca
owner of the saloen was kept at
home with a sick child and his
uncle, Pablo Baca, was tending
bar. FiEally Lgng pulled a As
automatic pistol and commenced
shooting, choosing a new type
writer on the desk as a target.
Mr.. Baca tried to take the gun
from him and he drew another
pistol and shot Baca through the
hearl killing him instantly.
At the sound of the shooting.
Deputy Sheriff, E. R. Gentry. of
Clayton, who happened to be in
town on other business, ran into
the saloon and was shot through
the breast by long as he entered
the door. In spite of his wound
Gentry drew his gun and fired on
Long who ran behind the bar and
hid. Gentry reached over the
bar and shot him through and
then turned and went to Ben
Browns Hotel and asked for 9
doctor. Mr.. Brown was taking
him up stairs room when he
collapsed and died.
Medical aid was rendered Long
but it is believed his wounds are
such that he cannot recover.
After the shooting, Holland
ran out and hid two big As auto
MATES and a quantity of shells
for them in the weeds, A wo-
man saw him from her window
and advised the officers who went
and recovered them and placed
Holland Under arrest.
Sheriff Roy Sutton and Asst
District Attorney, C. A. Collins
came at once from Clayton to
investigate
Pablo Baca was one of the first
Sheriffs Of Union County and a
fine old man as ever lived, Mr..
Gentry has made an enviable
reputation as an officer and his
death in the prime of a splendid
young manhood is especially re-
grettable.
Ernest Long is one of theparties
suspected of robbing automobiles
/. here recently and Marshall Chas.
Peare searched his place recently
for Mr.. Justices tires that were
stolen. There was also rumor
that his car was on that had
been stolen in the south part of
the state and it was this that he
claimed sent him on the war
path.
