Peter Bons, known as a tramp, has confessed to the murder of Pearl Morrison at Crystal Falls after a prison visit by Detective Worth in priest garb. The confession recalls an assault near the creek and a later robbery in 1893, amid political tension and threats of lynching. The report spans local crime, public fear, and a broader note on civic politics affecting regional firemen’s tournaments.
