Exoneration for Gray by Coroner's Jury in Gregson Springs Riot
In Silver Bow County Montana on August 18 and 19 1912 coroner Louie Smith presided over the inquest into the shooting deaths of Marko Nikolich and John Gar evich. The jury found that William Gray shot the men near Gregson Springs and near the Butte Anaconda Pacific line. Nikolich died on a passenger train after leaving the springs and Gar evich died at Murray’s hospital in Butte. The jury ruled Gray acted under fear of great bodily harm and was justified. The verdict excused Gray as charged by the two Austrians deaths tied to the Gregson Springs riot. The inquiry adjourned after testimonies and a discussion of costumes and misperceptions about the shooter. A picnic by the clerks and butchers unions is planned at Gregson Hot Springs with sports and dancing.
