Frank Kelly arrested near this place on
suspicion, has confessed to the murder
together with Harrv Brown, of Arcata, of
Pat Dunn at Patrick's Creek, Thursday
December 29. Kelly, who lives in Che
halis, Wash., seems not to realize the
enormity of the crime, and acts as though
half-witted, but Brown is evidently a des
perate customer. The two men laugb and
sing together in jail and jest about the
murder, which was a particularly cold
blooded and atrocious one.
Dunn, the victim, was an old store
keeper, who lived alone in his isolated
cabin. His head was crushed by blows
with an ax and a lieavv club. The men
sav that thev had heard that Dunn, who
was a widely-known man, had much gold
hidden in his cabin. They went there
and found two miners with Dunn. These
they told that two good men were needed
at the Monumental mine.and the miners
set out at once to secure employment.
Brown and Kelly then attacked the old
man.
Brown claims to have a home and rela
tives in Humboldt County, California,
and Kelly says that his parents live at
Chehalis, Wash., and that he has an uncle
named Felgate, employed in the San
Francisco mint.
