    1. Fw: [PaCambri] Another Murder at Ernest, and Hold-up Near Creekside
    2. X-Original-Sender: Marilynkwash@aol.com Wed May 12 09:16:41 2004 To: PACAMBRI-L@rootsweb.com North Cambria News, Thursday Dec 2.1915 ANOTHER MURDER AT ERNEST MAN THROWN OVER PORCH RAIL AND NECK IS BROKEN Ernest, Indiana County, was the scene of another murder Monday evening, when Joe Remanuski was thrown over a porch rail to the street 12 feet below and had his neck broken. The men charged with his death are in the Indiana Jail. Enoch Busavick, William Cirvis and the dead man it appears, had been drinking. They were on a porch at the Civris home when a dispute arose, followed by blows. It is alleged Busavick and Cirvis picked Remanuski up and threw him over the railing of the high porch, and that his neck was broken when he lit on his head and shoulders on the street 12 feet below. In an attempt to detract suspicion from the Busavich [sic] and Crivis [sic] went to bed and were found there fully dressed when officers went to the house about midnight. HOLDUP NEAR CREEKSIDE A bold holdup is reported to have taken place between Earnest and Creekside one night last week. Joseph Cribbs, of Chambersville, as the story goes, was returning home from Indiana with two suitcases. At Ernest he got off on business, and later, as the street car had made its last trip, he started to walk home. Near the tipple he was held up by two men, the contents of the two suitcases appropriated and over $100 which he had in his clothes was taken. He was beaten up considerably but was able to proceed to his home. Mr. Cribs can give no description of the highwaymen, as it was too dark, and there is no clue. Note Earnest is spelled two ways, as are the names of the men. I know this is Indiana County, but the Barnesboro Star covers part of that county, and usually printed articles that related to someone in their area. Does anyone else detect a hint of disbelief in the second article? I have read others of this sort, and perhaps this was a good excuse for being beaten up and losing money.
