Deceased’s Brother-in-law Admits Murder on Fire
Cuero Texas Sept 16 A 79 year old pioneer S H Lewis was murdered by his weak minded brother in law W T Stapp who beat him with an oxen hammer then burned the body on a brush funeral pyre. Stapp confessed at the examining trial and was bound over to the January grand jury. The crime occurred near Yoakum as neighbors discovered the fiery scene and removed the remains. Stapp showed no remorse beyond saying he would not kill again if given the chance. In separate news Pittsburgh reports coal mine operations in the Fairmont district showing 125 mines active out of 365.
