Corvallis, Ore., March 21. That George Humphrey, confessed mur derer of Elizabeth Griffith, killed his stepfather, William King, near Day ten, Ore., and George Damrose of Hayhurst valley, near Yoncalla, Ore., is the additional charge made by Charles Humphrey, his brother, who was brought here today from Hills boro. The first story of the Hum phrey's connection with the crime was told to Sheriff Hancock of Wash ington county and A. Ujt Harris, a newspaper man, on the train between Hillsboro and Corvallis. The story as given by Humphrey tallies closely with the facts of death In each Ciise. Charles Humphrey was In good spirits when the news- j papermen met him in charge of Sheriff Hancock, who was taking him to jail at Corvallis. . He talked free ly of the terror which had been in his mind for a long time, and was led step by step over th tale of the two. tragedies, now practically for gotten. The story of the strangling of Wil liam King was told for the first time. King and Humphrey's mother were married 33 years ago. For a long time they lived together, apparently without trouble. Then came separ ation and King moved to Dayton, Ore. There he lived alone. Hatred rankled in the breast of both Mrs. King and George Humphrey, and finally Humphrey went to Dayton in the afternoon, and the next morning King was found dead in bead. Strangle!. Not Heart Failure. It was a case of heart failure, peo ple said. Charley Humphrey says his brother George strangled the man to death with his hands. No suspicion was ever directed to ward Humphrey. King had just sold a horse and buggy and it was sup posed he had money about the house. Charley Humphrey says his brother realized about $12 on the .murder. Charley Humphrey attended the fu neral, gomg to Dayton after his brother had returned from the kill ing. He said he wanted his mother to accompany him to the burial, but that she refused. The crime was the family resided near Dallas. King committed about six years ago, while was about 60 years of age, was rather corpulent and had enjoyed the best of health. Tin- Murder of Dnnirose. Damrose became a victim to George Humphrey's thirst for blood while the Humphrey family lived at Yoncalla, about four years ago, about (he time George Selby was killed near Dallas. Damrose lived in the foothills of Hayhurst valley, six miles from Yon calla and two miles from the Hum phrey place. He had been ailing and was thought to be ill enough for neighbors to sit up with him to give medicine. Gorge Humphrey, so his brother Charley says, went to the Dnmrose house and stayed part or all of one night with the sick man. In the morning Damrose was dead iiml George Humphrey admitted to his brother that he strangled him witli his thumbs. No money was re ported as booty on this murder. Dr. E. W.
