Eight Croatian orphans left fatherless after murder
A gunman killed John Deriana, a father of eight, leaving his Croatian family at 2109 Hickory Street in poverty stricken shock. The eldest twins are 14, youngest two, with children ages 11 to 2. Widowed Mary and Anna the 12 year old spoke of sorrow and responsibility. Mary said the father was shot “something awful” and the family would need work, possibly washing dishes at Columbia Gardens, to survive. The white house appears larger than it is, with unfinished upstairs and three room ground floor. Deriana had worked as a watchman on a tailing dump and had lived in Butte 18 years.
