Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, August 26, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 34 Found Headless Body About 8 o’clock Monday night the headless trunk of an unknown man was found a short distance west of Kittanning Point, near Gallitzin, by the trackwalker. The left leg was also ground off. The remains were taken to Altoona and turned over to Undertaker Lafferty. It is believed that the man was a tramp and that he was killed while walking along the tracks. There was not a thing about him that might lead to his identification. The wheels evidently ran over the back part of his head for there was nothing left of it but the skin of the face and strangely enough the skin was unmarked. Deputy Coroner McCartney of Blair county is trying to have the unfortunate identified. The man was about 30 years old, weight about 200 pounds, has a fair complexion and grey eyes. He wore a black coat and vest, brown corduroy trousers and blue and white striped shirt. With him was a bundle in which were two suits of underwear, a shirt, two towels, two laundered collars and a new necktie. _________________________________________________________________ Want to read Hotmail messages in Outlook?

Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, August 12, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 32 Grillo Caught at Last Notwithstanding that he fled several thousand miles to escape the consequences of a crime committed in Portage in February, 1903, Carmelo Grillo, who murdered Mr. and Mrs. Antonio Grillo, stands in the shadow of a life term in prison. The man went to Italy after committing the crime and lived for a while before the knowledge of his guilt became known there. The rumors grew so that the police arrested the man and are now preparing to try him for the double murder. Neither the two murdered people nor the accused were citizens of the United States. District Attorney Stephens has received a communication from the authorities in Italy asking that the testimony of the principal witnesses in this country be taken and forwarded to the authorities there. The witnesses in question were boarders with the Grillo family at the time of the dynamite explosion, which resulted in their deaths and the destruction of their home. The testimony will be taken at once and sent to the proper authorities. There is no capital punishment in Italy and the worst Grillo can get is life imprisonment. _________________________________________________________________ Store, manage and share up to 5GB with Windows Live SkyDrive. http://skydrive.live.com/welcome.aspx?provision=1?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_skydrive_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, August 5, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 31 Brutal Men Lay Ambush On Saturday last three unknown men shot and instantly killed Charles Hays of Portage and seriously wounded Patrick F. Campbell of the same place. The crime was one of the most brutal ever known in this state. About 9:15 o’clock Saturday morning Campbell and Hays secured from Station Master H. D. Hoover bags containing bills and silver to the amount of $2,970. Hays was driving. Campbell sat on his left, holding the money bags in his right hand and the other hand in his pocket, grasping a revolver. They were driving a top buggy. Passing through the town Campbell spoke cheerily to several people he passed and drove on at a brisk pace. After leaving Portage the road known as the Puritan road, or the Trout run road, strikes a grade. A Volley from Shotguns As the buggy passed a clump of bushes there was a volley from shotguns. Hays, on the right of the buggy, received the full charge, being pierced with 17 shots. His body protected Campbell to a large extent but not enough to allow him to escape. As Campbell toppled from the vehicle another volley was fired from ambush and both men were practically riddled with bullets. Bullets Fired into Campbell After Campbell fell to the road a man stepped from the bushes to the horse’s head. Campbell noticed his action and watched him while at the same time he noticed two other men rush to the buggy, reach over the dying form of Hays and grasp the money. The man standing at the head of the horse, seeing Campbell still moving, deliberately aimed his revolver at the bleeding man and fired. The bullet crashed into Campbell’s right shoulder, breaking his collar bone and lodging in his neck. Then, when his companions moved away from the buggy, the man fired several times at Hays from his revolver and released the horse. Farmer Finds Wounded Man Campbell allowed himself to sink down on the roadway but he hardly had fallen down when William Helsel, a farmer living beyond Puritan, drove up in a spring wagon on his way from Portage to his farm. He knew Campbell and he realized what had happened. Helsel immediately placed the wounded man in his wagon and drove back to Portage, taking Campbell to the office of Dr. J. C, Schofield. Here the physician made a hurried examination and determined that the man should be removed to a hospital at once. Helsel and several others returned to the scene to find Hays. The horse was found grazing along the roadside not far from the scene of the crime. Hays was seated in the corner, still bleeding, but seemingly dead. He was brought back to Portage in the buggy. He never regained consciousness. When Campbell reached Dr. Schofield’s office he was able to give them a whispered account of the outrage. Campbell left Portage station about 9:15 o’clock Saturday morning. He was back in the doctor’s office at 10 o’clock. The day express was stopped and he was on his way to Altoona at 10:11 o’clock. There, he was placed in the hospital. [snip] Identification is Established The most startling feature in the Portage hold-up was the identification by Superintendent P. F. Campbell of Gundo Menzi or Gaetana Giampoli as one of the men who assassinated Charles Hays, stole almost $3,000 and shot him. He was taken to Altoona Wednesday morning, handcuffed to County Detective Ed Knee, accompanied by Charles A. Robinson, Pittsburgh division railroad policeman, C. A. Frazer, also a railroad policeman and ex-chief of police of Johnstown. They were met at the station by Patrolmen Vaughn and Spangler and conducted to the Brant House where they waited until the arrival of the patrol wagon. At the hospital the officers who brought Menzi over accompanied him into Mr. Campbell’s room and there in the presence of the officers and physicians, Mr. Campbell positively identified him. Raising his right hand up in bed, Mr. Campbell, the instant he saw the fellow and without a second’s hesitancy, said: “The hat, coat and face are all right.” Campbell stated, however that the man who shot him in the road wore trousers that he thought were corduroy while Menzi wore a light gray pair of trousers. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, July 29, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 30 Recalls Heinous Crime Sheriff Samuel Lenhart on Monday removed to the state asylum for the insane at Polk, Venango county, Mrs. Bridget Moore, aged about 66 years, who had been a patient at the Memorial Hospital, Johnstown, since June 29, at which time she fell down a flight of steps at her home on Prospect and injured herself severely. Mrs. Moore has been insane for some years past. A commission composed of Dr. J. L. Sagerson, Chas. Coyle and Wallace Paul examined her recently and recommended her removal to the asylum. The husband of Mrs. Moore or the man supposed to be her husband was Michael Moore, who was hanged in Cambria county in 1872 for the murder of a woman supposed to be a former wife. The crime was committed at Mineral Point and was one of the most brutal ever perpetrated in Pennsylvania. Moore was convicted and hanged by Sheriff Bonacker. It is not known whether his wife or the woman taken to Polk had anything at all to do with it, but it is possible that her mind became affected as a result of brooding over her husband’s deed. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, June 17, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 25 Dunlo Mystery Explained, Dunlo, June 15: Alex Rical and his wife, Valencia Rical, members of the foreign settlement at Llansaik, were arrested this morning by Constable George W. Douglass, charged with the surreptitious and improper burial of a stillborn child in the Dunlo cemetery about four weeks ago. The couple were brought before Squire M. W. Jackson of this place and admitted their guilt. It will be remembered that the body was found enveloped in a half buried shoe box by some ladies who were visiting the cemetery. As no clue could be discovered as to the identity of the perpetrators of the act, the body was later buried properly at the county’s expense. While passing the cemetery early this morning, Supt. Richard Pardoe of the Mountain Coal Company noticed a man and woman apparently attempting to bury something. Becoming a little suspicious he entered the graveyard and discovered them intent upon burying the old shoe box which had been left lying by the grave of the mysterious child. Mr. Pardoe immediately reported the matter to the local authorities and the arrest followed. The couple explained to the Justice that they were too poor to pay funeral expenses and didn’t know of the Board of Health requirement of a burial certificate. _________________________________________________________________ You live life beyond your PC.

Friday, June 10, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 24 Company Found Negligent The jury impaneled by Coroner Miller to look into the death of John Telan, the foreigner who was found dead and badly mutilated near Gallitzin last Thursday morning, the apparent victim of a heavily charged electric wire, brought in the following verdict: “Upon examining the above witnesses we find that John Telan came to his death by coming in contact with an electric wire coming from the Gallitzin light plant and being electrocuted, and we find gross negligence on the part of the company in not properly placing its wires so that they would not interfere with pedestrians. Where the electricity, which caused the death, came from is not known to the jury.” _________________________________________________________________ You live life beyond your PC.

Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, May 13, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 20 Miller Unearths Crime Coroner E. L. Miller went to South Fork Monday night and continued the inquest over the death of James Williams, the young man found dead a mile north of the coal town some days ago. After hearing the testimony of a number of witnesses the jury empanelled some time ago returned a verdict that Williams came to his death from causes unknown, but that everything pointed to foul play. It is very probably that the case will be taken up by the district attorney and county detective who will investigate the young man’s death fully. From the testimony of some of the witnesses it was learned that three unknown colored men had been seen walking up the railroad tracks the night Williams met death, in the direction in which his body was found. The young man had an engagement to call on a young lady that evening, but he did not appear at her house, nor was he seen by anyone after he left South Fork. He had on his person $18 when his friends left him but only a few cents were in his pockets when his body was discovered lying in the south fork of the Conemaugh river. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, April 15, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 16 Two Murder Trials Slated The criminal list for the coming June term of court has already inscribed upon it two murder cases. They are those in which Harvey Seaman of Wilmore is charged with the shooting of thirteen-year-old Foster Bauers at Wilmore on March 8th, and the one wherein George Pilet, the foreign miner of Portage, is held responsible for the death of Mike Keitis who died last Wednesday from the effects of a thrust in the eye with an umbrella. Two informations charging larceny were also made against Seaman before Alderman W. J. Lambert Saturday morning shortly after the murder charge had been preferred against him by County Detective Kline. The murder charge against Seaman who is only about sixteen years of age, comes as a surprise and was instituted as the result of an investigation in which the people of Wilmore have been insisting upon for some time. County Detective Knee was in Wilmore Friday evening but came back without making an arrest. He returned to the mountain town Saturday morning and brought the prisoner back to Johnstown with him. _________________________________________________________________ Store, manage and share up to 5GB with Windows Live SkyDrive. http://skydrive.live.com/welcome.aspx?provision=1?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_skydrive_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, April 1, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 14 Davis Confesses Crime Notwithstanding the fact that in court three months ago the negro, Frank Davis, swore before God and man that he was innocent of the murder of Laura Taylor on the Frankstown Road last fall, he on Wednesday, confessed to Warden Reynolds and County Commissioner W. S. Stutzman that he and he alone was responsible for the death of the woman. The colored man has acted for some time as if he had great load on his mind. When he was approached by the Messrs. Stutzman and Reynolds and asked if he had really murdered Laura Taylor, in reply he said that he had. According to the man he was at first sorry that the razor with which he committed the deed was not sharp enough kill him also but that since he had received sentence of death he was glad that he would have time to prepare to meet his maker. Davis said that there was no necessity of informing his mother and other relatives who live in Savannah, Ga., of his incarceration in jail and his approaching death on the gallows. His mother, he said, was a Christian and he wanted to meet her in Heaven when he died. Jealousy or spite had nothing to do with the murder of the Taylor woman, according to the murderer. It was the result of drink. Davis, in his confession Wednesday, did not dwell much on the terrible crime in Cocaine alley but instead attempted to give what might be called a dissertation on the uncertainty of life. He said that he had never imagined for a minute that he would ever be in a murderer’s cell. He told his listeners that he was getting prepared to die on the gallows. He stated with apparent sincerity that he would walk to the place of death happy. The condemned man was born in Savannah Sept. 23, 1874, and is therefore 30 years of age. He has a mother, six brothers and three sisters living in the Georgia city. “Billy” Bell is Acquitted Jury Also Decides in Favor of Mrs. Gablotz of Lilly. Frank Davis receives his Sentence. _________________________________________________________________ Store, manage and share up to 5GB with Windows Live SkyDrive. http://skydrive.live.com/welcome.aspx?provision=1?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_skydrive_102008

A. Hill, who on the night of Dec. 23, while on Bedford street near the B. & O. crossing, Johnstown, received a blow upon the head from the effects of which he died and upon the issues of the case hangs the fate of William Bell of Johnstown, who is accused of Hill’s murder.

Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, March 4, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 10 Lilly Woman Faces Charge Wife of Gabol Gablock is Held Upon Charge of Killing Andrew Evan, a Polish Miner “My buddy do this – he do this,” where the last words of Andrew Evan, a Polish miner, who was found lying, fatally stabbed, just on the threshold of the home of this friend, Gabol Gablock at Lilly about 10 o’clock Saturday evening. Evan died at 3:10 Sunday morning as the result of his wounds, but from the evidence brought out at the inquest held by Coroner Miller Sunday afternoon, it appeared that it was Gablock’s wife, rather than Gablock himself who did the fatal cutting. The Gablocks were brought to Ebensburg Monday morning, the woman charged with murder and her husband with being an accessory, both before and after the fact. It appears that the Evan family, consisting of the murdered man, his brother, Joseph and wife, and the latter’s son, Joseph Jr., and the Gablocks who lived only 100 yards away have been on very intimate terms ever since they came here from Poland a number of years ago and according to his usual habit, Andrew Evan was spending Saturday evening with his friends. Just what were the circumstances leading up to the quarrel which ended so disastrously have not yet been determined although one story is to the effect that Evan, who appeared very tired insisted upon lying on a bed which the Gablock’s four-month-old baby was sleeping which so angered Mrs. Gablock that she attacked him with a butcher knife. All that is really known as yet is that Gabo Gablock went to the Evan house about 8:30 and said to Joseph Evan, Sr.: “You better come get Andy. He not need no priest, no God, no doctor, he soon be done for. My wife, she fix him, she stab him.” Evan and his son went immediately to the Gablock house, where Andrew Evan was found lying outside the kitchen door with two great gashes in his right shoulder, and almost dead from loss of blood. The wounded man was conveyed to his brother’s house and Dr. D. E. Fisher summoned, but medical aid proved unavailing and death occurred at 3:10. Joseph Evan went before a Justice of the Peace and made information against Mrs. Annie Gablock, charging her with murder and her husband with being an accessory before and after the fact. They were placed in the Lilly lockup awaiting transportation to Ebensburg. Coroner Miller was notified of the affair Sunday morning and went to Lilly. After completing the postmortem, Dr. Miller impaneled a jury to conduct an inquest. The jury found that “Andrew Evan came to his death about 3:10 a.m. February 28, 1904, near Lilly, from a cut in the right shoulder, severing the blood vessels and causing death from hemorrhage. The injury was caused by a knife cut, the knife being in the hands of Annie Gablock about 7 p.m. February 28, 1904, and we hold Gabol Gablock, her husband, as accessory.” The scene of the tragedy is a foreign settlement near the Lilly Coal Company’s mine about a mile and a half from Lilly proper. According to a number of citizens there have been a good many rows in that neighborhood lately and public sentiment against the delivery of beer in wagon loads into the settlers there is very strong. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, February 5, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 6 Girl Murdered Post Office Clerk at Boswell Shot Dead by Negress Somerset Pa., Feb. 2. Miss Minnie Frickline, aged 23 years, clerk in the post office at Boswell since April 1, was shot and instantly killed while on her way to work by a negress, Mrs. Frank Simpson, wife of a Boswell barber. Miss Frickline was hurrying rapidly along when the colored woman pounced upon her and drawing a revolver from under her shawl fired a bullet into the girl’s brain. Mrs. Frickline dropped dead in her tracks. Mrs. Simpson was placed under arrest immediately and taken before Justice of the Peace Ackey who committed her to jail. The murdered woman is a daughter of Isaac Frickline who conducts a furniture store and undertaker’s establishment at Boswell. She was bright and intelligent and before accepting a position at the post office had charge of the Somerset Telephone company’s exchange at Boswell. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
Cambria Freeman, Ebensburg, Pa. Friday, January 15, 1904 Volume XXXVIII, Number 3 Another Johnstown Murder John Gibbony, William Bell, and Van French, jointly held by a Coroner’s jury for the murder of C. A. Hill, alias, C. F. Pond, were on Saturday held by Alderman John C. Rutledge of the Fifth Ward, Johnstown, to answer the charge at court. The trio were brought here Saturday afternoon by Constable Herzog and Detective James. At the hearing Constable Herzog who, under the direction of the Coroner, made the charge, was sworn and gave the circumstances as they have come to his knowledge and Peter Harry, the Windber foreigner who was with the murdered man the night he received his injuries, was also put on the stand. His testimony was substantially the same as given at the inquest. Attorney M. B. Stephens was presenting for the prosecution, while F. P. Martin, Esq., appeared for the defendants. The latter subjected Harry to a severe cross examination but the foreigner’s story stood as first related, though the witness was unable to definitely state the exact time the assault which resulted in the murder was made. The defense of the accused men will in all probability be an alibi as subsequent to the hearing Saturday, Bell’s mother went to Alderman Rutledge’s office and stated that her son was at home at 11 o’clock on the night of December 23d, the time the crime is alleged to have been committed. The prisoners have been “sweated” to some extent but no damaging admissions have been secured from them. _________________________________________________________________ Stay organized with simple drag and drop from Windows Live Hotmail. http://windowslive.com/Explore/hotmail?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_hotmail_102008
