HELD FOR MURDER.
Seven Boring Men Must Answer to
Charge of Killing Hindu.
County Judge Dimick Wednesday
afternoon bound over J. M. Dickenson
and his two sons William and John,
Vernon Hawse, Earl Ransler, John
Riley and Walter St. Clair, to the Cir
cuit Court, on a charge of murdering
Bhlngwan Singh, the Hindu, who was
killed at Boring, near the sawmill of
Jarl & Pagh Bros., Hallowe'en night.
The men were held without bonds.
George C. Brownell appeared for all
of the defendants except Hawse, who
is represented by Hedges & Griffith.
The defense introduced no testimony,
but on their part waived examination,
but cross-examined the witnesses for
the state. Dr. C. C. McCornack testi
fied that he had been called to attend
the Hindu, who lived several days af
ter the shooting. Deputy District At
torney Eby gave his evidence obtained
at the preliminary hearing of the de
fendants when they were examined be
fore Justice of the Peace Jonsrud at
Boring, before the death of Singh, on
a charge of assault with a dangerous
weapon with attempt to kill. William
Dickenson admitted to Mr. Eby that
he had used the 30-35 rifle, which be
longed to his father, and it was a bul
let from this rifle that killed the
Hindu. Singh's partner, who was in
the cabin at the time of the shooting
testified through an interperter that
when the firing commenced both men
climbed under the bed and remained
there until Singh received his death
wound.
