MICE DEAD:
FILED DY JURY
Lott Charged with Murder of
Prentice Is Verdict of
Coroner s Jury.
A charge of murder wan made to
day against William Lott for shoot
ing "Rllly" Prentice, in a verdict re-!
turned by a Coroner's ury impaneled |
by Judge V. A. Paine. Prentire died!
shortly before midnight Saturday,
in St. Ann Hospital, where he was
taken immediately after the shoot-,
ing last Wednesday evening, an ! will |
be burled at 6:3o p: m. today.
Any one of the three of the four!
wounds reeelved by him. said Ilr.
W. A. Holland, who attended the
Injured man, was fatal. Ttiis state
ment was made after an autopsy had
been held following the death. II
was remarkable, he added, that he,
had lived so long.# 72 hours, with
such terrible wounds.
Prentice, until near the end, 'had
complete confidence that lie would j
recover. Late Saturday afternoon, it ,
was stated by his physician that he1
had a good chance to live- unless nn-|
forseen complications arose. A few
hours later, his body began to swell j
and it was realized that an opera
tion was the only hope left. While j
the physicians were preparing for;
this, death occurred.
Just before the end, Prentice a'lan
doned hope. His only common said
Dr. Borland, was: "Well, the jig
Is up.”
The autopsy revealed one of the!
bullets entering the chest and turned
fllong a rib which it shattered and!
had then taken out a wide section
of the lung; another had ranged
downward and shattered the spleen
and a third had so damaged the,
kidney and other organs as to lie
fatal. Any one of these three wounds »
was sufficient to have resulted in
death, said Dr. Borland.
The coroner’s jury returned a ver
dict that Prentice died from wounds'
received at the hands of William!
Lott against whom it entered, a
charge of murder. Lott, who has
been confined in the local Federal!
jail since the shooting, will be givpn
a preliminary hearing Wednesday he !
fore Judge Paine, in the U. S. Com-'
missioner’s Court.
Prentice is said to have come to!
this district 12 or 13 years ago and!
first worked as a pipe-cutter for the,
Treadwell Company on Douglas Is-!
land. His only^relatlve known here
Is a sister. Mrs. John N. Dye, of
Angona, N. Y. He will be buried i
at 6:30 p. m. today, the funeral tak-!
Ing place from C. W. Young s Under- J
taking Parlors, services being held
in the chapel there by Rev. David
Waggoner, and the body interred in
the local cemetery.

PROSPECT GOOD
FOR PAPER MILL
AT THOMAS BAY
Forest Service Awaits Date
for Opening Bids on
Unit for Big Site.
—
“Wo are anxiously awaiting the
expiration of the advertisement per-!
iod covering the Thomas Bay timber
unit when bids on that unit will
be opened by the Forest Service and
which, it is hoped, will signalize!
the beginning of development there
of a substantial pulp and paper
manufacturnlg plant,” said E. E.
Carter, Assistant U. S. Forester, who
arrived here yesterday from Wash
ington, D. C.
Mr. Carter will be in Southeastern
Alaska several weeks inspecting the
•ales areas and general work of the
local Forestry. “Alaska's timber
business is growing to a point
where it is necessary for us to make
regular inspections," ho said.
The Thomas Buy timber unit was
advertised at the request of Mutton,!
McNear & Dougherty, San Fran-!
cisco brokers and business men, who
ate Interested In the development
of the t’ascado Creek power site to
which the unit has been alloted. All
preliminary requirements for obtain
ing a development permit on the
site have been complied with and
information received at the local
Forestry office indicates that the
Federal Power Commission is ready
to issue it if the firm obtains its
timber contract from the Depart
ment of Agriculture.
Mr. Cartpr was inclines! to be
lieve the Dougherty interests moan
business and is hopeful that they
will start aetual development on a
scale commensurate with the size
of tho power project at Cascade
Crock which it regarded by hydro
electric engineers as one of the most"
favorable In the Territory, capable
of producing a large horsepower
at a very low cost. The timber unit'
is so located as to make transpor
tation to Ihe mill from logging areas
practicable at small costs and the
supply of timber is adequate lor the
potential development of the power
site.
Tho advertising period expires
early next month, bids being re
ceived on the unit until that time.
Pending award of a contract by
the Department, the lochl Forest
Service lia3 a crew of men making «
survey of the timber resources of
the unit which heretofore has only
been covered reconnaissance.
