Hillsboro. Or., XJrfay 1. William
R'STln, aged 37 years, convict at Sa
lem, serving time for larceny in Yam
hill county, and now In the county
- .Jail her for investigation of another
case, hag made a voluntary confession
claiming that he killed William Booth
fnear Willumlna, October 8, 1915. Mrs.
Uooth, wife of the murdered man, and
fvvinta.m Branson are now serving time
in tbe Mate prison for the Bootli
murder. ,
. Sheriff Applegate, who received Rig-
glns' confession, makes It public for!
what it is worth and he is turning the
sworn confession over to the Yamhill
authorities.
George Riggin, father of the pris
oner, thinks the son Is telling the
.truth, and was present when the con
fession was made. Young Riggin is t
pervert, and his story is received with
reservation. His confession follows:
Tail of Trouble.
I, William Riggin. under oath, do
make this my true and voluntary
statement, to-wit: Branson and Mrs.
Booth are not guilty of killing Booth;
I shot William Booth; Booth always
had It in for ne. and one time called
me out of the pool hall In Wlllamina
ajd told me' that I had a bad name;
said ror me to leave his wife alone.
1 told him. '"TO hell with him." He
slapped me on the side of my head.
Another time I was standing on the
street in Wlllamina and Booth came
along and suid to the other fellow he
was witrtj 1 hf r is an ex-con. He
always had it in for me. I said to
myself that 1 was gcdng to get him. I
think ho tipped me off- to the game
warden. He always lfept -picking' at
me. On October 7 In the forenoon
1 went down; past Tud Lee' place and
got to talking . with him about Booth;
he. know- that Airs. Booth and Branson
wee going together and that Booth
: was Jealous. He told me that Booth
was going up there all the time, trail
ing Billy Branson. Booth watched mS
like a hawk and was Jealous of me.
On October 8 in the morninir I took
a Jli-O rifle, and a 38 Smith & Wesson
hammerless revolver, blue steel, and
went up to the timber to practice
sliootinsr and wait for Booth. I- had
a lot of mixed shells for the 3S. Rome
hand loaded and pome not. I practice!
shooting for ahout two hours. I dl J
not expect to find .Booth. I came down
the road and paw Billy Branson and
Mrs. Booth talking together. When t
passed them thev were off at the edge

I don't think that they saw me. I
passed them and went down the road
lor about 200 yards and circled around
and came back. I circled around to
the left. I was about 40 yards from
them. There was some brush and
timber between me and them. I stood
there and watched them. I saw Booth
coming ecrosk th field to the left of
me, and when he was about 100 yards
off 1 shot at him with the rifle. He
stopped and looked around, and I
ducked down on the ground. He came
on across, and 1 waited until he got
to about 3d yarda from me, and I
shot him with the revolver. After I
shot he partly turned around and fell
kind of on hU left side. He said "Oh,
my God.'' 1 shot at hlra again when
he was on the ground but think I
mlsst him.
I would have shot all the shells at
him, but 1 was- afraid some one would,
see me. I lit cut to the left and went
down through the brush. I walked to
