Pendleton, Oregon, March 14, 1912.
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.
